Description

This chain-free three-bedroom detached house is set in a quiet cul-de-sac in St. Mellons, around 30 minutes from Cardiff city centre. The ground floor has a spacious lounge and a separate dining area that opens to the kitchen, with sliding doors from the dining space to the garden. The kitchen has gloss-fronted cabinets, an integrated oven and hob, and room for a washing machine and fridge freezer. There is also an integrated garage with power and lighting, accessed from the house, and a driveway providing off-street parking. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property has a large south-facing garden extending around the side, with a patio, lawn, mature trees beyond the boundary and a gated side access. A front lawn adds to the outdoor space. The listing notes that the plot may offer scope to extend, subject to planning; planning feasibility would need to be verified. The EPC rating is D.

55out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a clean, move-in-ready detached home, so the opportunity is less about a major refurb and more about making modest improvements to the garden: the south-facing plot has mature planting and a patio, with patchy lawn and weathered paving to refresh. The quiet cul-de-sac setting, driveway and integrated garage add to its appeal, and the listing suggests possible extension scope subject to planning, though feasibility is not established.

The asking price is slightly above the local £/sqf benchmark, and the numbers are tight: purchase plus the estimated refurb midpoint comes to £330,500, above the implied local average benchmark of £312,686. That makes this a weaker overall opportunity for a value-led project buyer, despite its good presentation and relatively light works.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the patchy lawn and weathered patio to make better use of the south-facing garden.
  • Explore the listing’s suggested extension potential, subject to planning and feasibility.
  • Take advantage of the detached layout, integrated garage and driveway in a quiet cul-de-sac setting.
