Auction listing! No chain! Spacious second-floor apartment in sought-after llandaff. Featuring two double bedrooms, modern kitchen, and south-west facing living room. Enjoy communal front & rear gardens plus a garage. Quiet cul-de-sac location near local amenities, transport links, and Bishop of Llandaff High School.
Location & Lifestyle
Tucked away in a peaceful cul-de-sac within the Llandaff area, this two-bedroom second-floor apartment offers a perfect blend of tranquillity and street-level vibrancy. Just a short stroll to Llandaff Village, enjoy independent cafés, shops, pubs and local amenities. It’s a superb setting for first-time buyers, downsizers or investors drawn to a welcoming community and scenic surroundings.
Entrance & Living Space
Step through the entrance hall which includes two handy storage cupboards—ideal for everyday essentials. The lounge is generously sized and benefits from a large southwest-facing window, granting abundant natural light throughout the afternoon. Whether relaxing or entertaining, this neutral-decor canvas allows effortless personalisation and interior design.
Characterful Flooring
A standout feature is the original wood parquet flooring hidden beneath the carpets (in all rooms except kitchen and bathroom). This beautiful, period style flooring can be restored to bring warmth, character and a distinctive edge to contemporary living.
Kitchen & Views
The modern kitchen is designed for both practicality and style, with sleek fitted units, integrated appliances and plenty of workspace. The sizeable window above the sink offers peaceful views across Caerphilly Mountain, adding a scenic backdrop to your daily routine—morning coffee or evening cooking included.
Double Bedrooms
Both bedrooms are generously sized doubles, adaptable to your lifestyle. The principal bedroom comfortably fits a king-size bed and offers retreat-style comfort, while the second bedroom serves well as guest space, children’s room, or a dedicated home-office setup.
Bathroom
The bathroom combines functionality and style with a clean, modern suite. Featuring a full bath with overhead shower, neutral tiling, large mirror and storage space beneath the sink—this room is a thoughtful blend of utility and design.
Gardens & Outdoor Space
Peaceful communal gardens at the front and rear enhance the lifestyle appeal. The rear garden is lawned, flanked by mature shrubs and flowerbeds—perfect for reading outdoors, gardening, or socialising in warmer months without needing direct maintenance.
Garage And Parking
A private garage within a secure block provides value-add storage or parking options. Street parking immediately outside the building is ample—ensuring hassle-free visitor access and daily convenience.
Loft Area
From the hallway, a loft hatch reveals a full-floor loft with generous headroom and storage. This space holds excellent future potential for conversion (subject to planning)—perhaps creating an additional bedroom, study, or hobby space.
Connectivity & Transport Links
Despite its calm cul-de-sac location, the property is exceptionally well connected. Fairwater Train Station is a short walk away offering quick routes into Cardiff City Centre. Local bus services are nearby and the A48, A4232 and M4 links are easily accessible—ideal for commuters and regional travel.
Local Schools & Community
