4 bed terraced house for sale

Melbourne Road, Llanishen, Cardiff CF14

Set on a sought after cul-de-sac within easy walking distance of Llanishen village, this characterful four-bedroom terraced home combines handsome period architecture with generous, versatile accommodation arranged over three floors. Its red brick facade, decorative gables and prominent bay window create an appealing first impression, while mature planting lends privacy and greenery to the frontage.

The entrance opens into a long, welcoming hallway, where a parquet style timber floor introduces warmth and character. High ceilings, traditional proportions provide an immediate sense of personality, while the staircase rises centrally through the house and doors lead to the principal ground floor rooms.

At the front is an inviting living room, illuminated by a wide bay window, the room retains an elegant period feel through its tall ceiling, cornicing, exposed floorboards and fireplace with tiled inserts. The bay overlooks the leafy front garden and allows excellent natural light to fill the room.

A second reception room provides valuable flexibility. Currently presented as a relaxed sitting room, it would work equally well as a formal dining room, family room or snug. A further fireplace forms the focal point, complemented by built-in open shelving to one side, while exposed timber boards and a rear-facing window continue the home's warm, individual style.

The kitchen extends along the rear of the property and is fitted with a broad range of wood effect fronted base and wall units beneath dark work surfaces. Features include a gas hob with extractor above, integrated double oven, inset sink and provision for a washing machine and dishwasher. Large format dark floor tiles run throughout, creating a durable and cohesive finish.

Beyond the main kitchen is a spacious dining area that makes the most of the property's depth. There is room for a dining table making this an excellent everyday gathering space. Glazed double doors frame views of the garden and provide direct access outside, allowing meals and entertaining to flow naturally onto the rear garden during warmer months. The open connection between the cooking and dining areas gives this part of the home a sociable, family-friendly character.

The staircase rises to a generous split level landing. On the first floor, the principal bedroom occupies the front of the house. This well proportioned double room features another broad bay window, with tall glazing creating a bright, restful atmosphere. There is plentiful space for a large bed, wardrobes and furniture, while the room's proportions reflect the quality of the original period design.

Two further double bedrooms provide adaptable accommodation. The fourth bedroom to the second floor adds further practicality for a growing household, visitors or dedicated office use. The property is served by one main bathroom to the first floor plus en-suite shower room to the second floor.

Externally, the front garden is enclosed by low brick dwarf wall and approached through a wrought iron gate, with established trees and shrubs softening the elevation and enhancing privacy. To the rear, the impressive garden is directly accessible from the dining area, creating a welcome outdoor extension to the living space plus the additional benefit of a garage.

Offered for sale with freehold tenure, this substantial home presents an appealing opportunity for buyers seeking period character, four-bedroom versatility and a sociable kitchen/dining arrangement in Llanishen. The combination of two reception rooms, original-style details and accommodation over three levels makes it particularly well suited to family life, home working and entertaining.
