Description

This one-bedroom flat has a spacious reception room with room for both seating and dining, and a separate kitchen fitted with wall and base units and space for freestanding appliances. The double bedroom is generously proportioned, while the bathroom has a white suite with a bath, wash basin and WC. The apartment would benefit from modernisation, with the existing layout offering a practical starting point for updates. It may suit a buyer looking to improve a home over time or consider it as a rental investment. Melbourne Court is positioned for access to amenities in Rhiwbina and Whitchurch, including shops, cafés, restaurants and nearby green spaces. Public transport and road links provide connections towards Cardiff and the M4. The property is described as share of freehold, with approximately 128 years remaining on the lease and a stated annual service charge of £55.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

46out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At £125,000, this one-bedroom flat has a generous layout, led by a spacious reception room that can accommodate separate lounge and dining areas. The décor and fittings are dated but appear serviceable, making this a light cosmetic project rather than a major overhaul; the kitchen has an intact, practical layout to work from, and no obvious major damage is visible in the photographed areas.

The location between Rhiwbina and Whitchurch, with local amenities and transport links nearby, adds to the appeal. Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sq ft cannot yet be judged; that gap also limits the overall assessment, which currently scores 46/100 (grade E).

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated décor and finishes to give the flat a more contemporary feel.
  • Make use of the unusually spacious reception room for distinct lounge and dining zones, or a small home-working area.
  • Build on the existing kitchen layout and intact fittings rather than starting from scratch.
