Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £220,000, this three-bedroom Roath terrace is priced attractively at £213 per sq ft, below the local average of £262. Its two reception rooms and central location give it a strong starting point for a buyer looking to add their own finish.

The project is a medium-scale modernisation: the kitchen and bathroom are dated, interior finishes could be refreshed, and the overgrown rear garden needs clearing back. The photographed living spaces and bedrooms appear generally usable, with no obvious major structural failure visible. The overall opportunity is promising, though the economics score is more moderate than the asking-price comparison alone suggests.

Key opportunities

  • Modernise the dated kitchen and bathroom to give the home a more contemporary feel.
  • Refresh the older flooring and decoration across the photographed interiors while building on the generally usable living spaces.
  • Clear and reshape the densely overgrown enclosed garden to make better use of the outdoor space.
