4 bed detached house for sale

Dan Y Graig, Pantmawr, Cardiff CF14

Positioned on a generous plot in the heart of ever-popular Pantmawr, 69 Dan y Graig is an immaculately presented and significantly improved four bedroom detached family home that effortlessly combines space, light and lifestyle. Extended, comprehensively upgraded and meticulously maintained, this is a property where no stone has been left unturned. The result is a home that feels calm, considered and ready for the next chapter.

The current owners were first drawn to the house because of the size of the rooms, the light and space it offers. That sense of openness is immediately apparent. Large windows, including several dual aspects, allow natural light to flood the interior, creating bright and uplifting living spaces even on overcast days. The proportions throughout are generous, and the layout has been designed with modern family life in mind.

The entrance hallway is both welcoming and impressive, with restored original herringbone wood block flooring that adds warmth and character. From here, the principal reception room stretches from front to rear, enjoying a dual aspect outlook and patio doors opening directly onto the rear terrace. This is very much the heart of the home - a space for cosy winter evenings, relaxed weekends and larger gatherings alike. The owners say they spend most of their time here, “watching TV or relaxing and looking out at the garden, ” where wildlife regularly makes an appearance – birds, squirrels, foxes and even the occasional pheasant.

A separate dining room to the front of the property provides flexibility for formal entertaining, family celebrations or simply a second sitting room if required. The kitchen is modern, light and beautifully appointed, fitted with a range of cream base and wall units complemented by solid wood worktops. There is an induction hob with extractor, double oven, ample storage and generous preparation space, making it as practical as it is stylish. A separate utility/laundry room keeps everyday appliances tucked away and offers additional storage, with direct access to the rear garden. A contemporary ground floor cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

Upstairs, the first floor hosts three excellent bedrooms. Two are generous doubles, including what was originally the main bedroom, and a well-proportioned single room currently used as a home office. The first floor bathroom was replaced last summer and is finished to a stylish, modern standard, providing a fresh and contemporary family bathroom.

The crowning glory of this home is undoubtedly the loft conversion. This impressive transformation has created a true principal suite, occupying the entire top floor. The bedroom itself is spacious and serene, with a large rear dormer window and two Velux windows to the front framing far-reaching views. The owners describe their favourite time of day here - “I love sitting in the loft in the morning with the Velux windows open looking out towards Cardiff Bay with a coffee.” It is easy to imagine starting the day in such a peaceful setting.

The suite also benefits from a large walk-in wardrobe and a beautifully appointed en suite shower room, creating a private retreat away from the rest of the house. Air conditioning units have been installed in two bedrooms, ensuring comfort throughout the warmer months, while downstairs remains naturally cool in summer thanks to wood and tiled flooring. In winter, the house feels warm and cosy, enhanced by comprehensive improvements carried out over the years, including full rewiring, new windows and doors, a new roof, new flat roofs, updated fascias and guttering.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The front garden is deep and attractively maintained, while a lengthy driveway provides ample off-road parking and leads to a detached garage with electric remote door, power and lighting. The rear garden is exceptionally sized, private and thoughtfully landscaped. A paved terrace creates the perfect outdoor entertaining space and, according to the owners, is “a proper sun trap” in summer, ideal for outdoor sofas and long afternoons with family and friends. Steps lead up to a tiered lawn framed by mature trees and shrubs, offering space for children to play and adults to unwind.

The lifestyle on Dan y Graig is just as special as the house itself. The owners brought their daughter home from hospital here, and it has been her only home. The street has a genuine community spirit - with lockdown street parties, bake-off and festive decoration competitions - it's a place where neighbours really do look out for one another.

Pantmawr itself is highly regarded for its family-friendly feel and proximity to excellent schooling, including Rhiwbeina Primary, Whitchurch High School, Ysgol y Wern and Glantaf. Rhiwbina village is within walking distance, offering independent shops, cafés and everyday conveniences, while The Deri stores provide a handy local option for groceries. The Pantmawr pub is just a five minute walk away and is well known for its welcoming atmosphere, good food and beer garden.

For families who love the outdoors, nature is quite literally on the doorstep. The Wenallt is nearby, offering woodland walks and trails popular with runners and dog walkers alike. There are excellent cycle paths providing easy access into Cardiff City Centre, Llandaff and down to the Bay. One local hidden gem is the walk across the horse fields towards the Wenallt in spring, where baby rabbits can often be seen at dusk. On Bonfire Night, the elevated position provides breathtaking panoramic views across Cardiff, from the city centre to Penarth, with fireworks lighting up the skyline.

Transport links are excellent, with easy access to the A470 and M4, making commuting straightforward, while nearby train stations in Rhiwbina and Whitchurch offer regular services into the city centre.

69 Dan y Graig is more than just a house - it is a home that has been carefully improved and deeply loved. It offers space to grow, room to entertain, peaceful corners to retreat to and a community that feels safe and connected. The next owners will inherit not only a beautifully presented property with a stunning loft suite and landscaped garden, but also a lifestyle defined by light, views, nature and neighbourhood spirit.
