4 bed detached house for sale

Rhiwbina Hill, Rhiwbina, Cardiff CF14

Nestled discreetly behind mature hedgerows, 36 Rhiwbina Hill is a truly exceptional four-bedroom family home set within one of North Cardiff’s most sought-after residential addresses. This is a place where space, privacy, and nature come together to create the perfect family lifestyle, one that is tranquil, convenient, and beautifully connected to both the city and the countryside.

From the moment you arrive at the front gate, the peaceful charm of this property is immediately evident. A sweeping driveway, bordered by lush green lawn and mature planting, leads to a large detached garage/workshop, with ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles. The front garden exudes an established feel, its well-maintained hedgerows and planted borders adding a touch of country elegance to this suburban sanctuary. There’s also separate pedestrian access, and the whole frontage feels private, secluded, and welcoming.

Stepping into the entrance hallway, you are greeted by an interior that blends period character with contemporary living. Stripped and varnished original wooden floorboards bring warmth and texture to the space, while soft, neutral tones create a feeling of calm and comfort. This sense of space and serenity continues throughout the home.

The principal reception room is a beautifully extended living space, bathed in natural light from windows at both ends, including French doors that lead out to the rear terrace. It’s an ideal room for families to relax together, with a feature fireplace with log burner add to the cosy ambience during winter evenings. Whether it’s lively family time or quiet relaxation, this is a room that adapts to the rhythm of everyday life.

Across the hall is a formal dining room, perfect for hosting special occasions or enjoying a Sunday roast with family and friends. Here, the period detailing shines through, from the heritage colour palette to the log burner and original flooring, creating an atmosphere of timeless charm.

The heart of the home, however, lies at the rear, the expansive open-plan kitchen, breakfast and family room. Thoughtfully designed for modern family life, this space combines functionality with flair. The kitchen features a generous array of cabinets and a central island, ideal for everything from morning coffee to evening meal prep. The orangery-style extension brings in swathes of natural light through large glazed doors, windows and roof lights, creating an uplifting space that opens directly onto the rear garden and decked terrace. Whether you’re hosting a birthday party, doing homework with the children, or simply enjoying a lazy Sunday brunch, this is a room that truly does it all.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with four well-appointed bedrooms. The principal bedroom is particularly noteworthy, with triple-aspect windows offering views across the garden and distant glimpses of the nearby golf course and hills beyond. The additional bedrooms are all generously sized, two of which are ideal doubles, while the fourth is currently used as a dressing room but would make a fantastic child’s bedroom or study.

The family bathroom is equally impressive, with a freestanding roll-top bath, a separate walk-in shower, and quality finishes throughout. Light, spacious and well-designed, it’s a space that serves the needs of a busy family while also offering a touch of luxury.

What makes 36 Rhiwbina Hill truly stand out, though, is its extraordinary potential. For families dreaming of future-proofing their home, there is ample scope to extend further, either outwards into the garden or upwards into the vast loft space, subject to planning consent. The plot size and layout offer endless possibilities, whether it’s creating a luxurious master suite, a home office, or a bespoke family annex. Very few properties offer this degree of flexibility in such a prestigious location.

The rear garden is a delight in itself. Spanning an exceptional length, it unfolds like a private parkland, laid mainly to lawn with mature trees, shrubs and well-established boundaries providing year-round interest and colour. A decked terrace extends from the kitchen and living areas, providing a perfect setting for al fresco dining, children’s play, or simply enjoying the late afternoon sun. A further seating area at the far end of the garden, near the stream, offers a peaceful retreat, ideal for morning coffee or a glass of wine at sunset.

Located on the prestigious Rhiwbina Hill, this home enjoys a semi-rural feel while remaining within easy reach of Cardiff’s city centre. Rhiwbina itself is a much-loved village community with a strong sense of identity. Local amenities include independent shops, coffee houses, popular primary and secondary schools, and access to nearby Caedelyn Park and Whitchurch Golf Club. There are excellent transport links, with Rhiwbina and Whitchurch train stations close by, offering direct routes into Cardiff Central.

This area is particularly popular with families due to its community feel, outstanding green spaces, and proximity to reputable schools. At weekends, families enjoy walks up nearby Wenallt woods or leisurely cycles along the Taff Trail. Rhiwbina is a place where neighbours know one another, where children still play in the garden until the sun sets, and where the pace of life balances perfectly between city convenience and countryside calm.

In short, 36 Rhiwbina Hill is not just a house - it’s a lifestyle opportunity. It’s a rare chance to own a generous, character-filled family home with breathtaking gardens and the potential to grow alongside your family’s needs. Whether you’re upsizing, relocating for better schools, or searching for a long-term forever home, this property ticks all the boxes and more.

Viewings are highly recommended to fully appreciate the space, light, and setting that this exceptional property has to offer.
