For sale after nineteen years here is our freehold terraced house with exceptional mature south-facing garden, including network-connected cabin suitable for studio or home-working, near all the amenities that the Welsh capital has to offer.
Benefitting from three good-sized bedrooms, two reception rooms, large kitchen-diner and generous upstairs bathroom with walk-in shower.

Provision for cyclists in Cardiff has improved a good deal in recent years and the city centre is largely level, making car-free living a realistic prospect here. 20mph limit on most roads.
Conveniently located for access to local bus services, mainline railway (London Paddington 2 hours 30 mins) and road to the A48 and M4.
Roath is a vibrant community with an abundance of opportunities for shopping, leisure and eating out. City Road is known for its many international restaurants and grocers. Nearby Albany Road has supermarkets, Wellfield Road an array of boutique outlets and eateries.
An award-winning farmers market takes place each Saturday at the Mackintosh Sports Club, where you can also enjoy tennis, bowling and other activities—just opposite The Gate, a community arts hub. A little further away lies Roath Park, with its boating lake and gardens.
There are a range of schools and daycare facilities within easy reach. NHS dental practice and a choice of GP surgeries are just round the corner.
A few minutes walk takes you into the heart of the Welsh capital, with all its retail, sporting, entertainment and educational resources. Bute Park, behind Cardiff's signature castle, offers impressive diversions of a botanical nature, and both venues also host outdoor events during the summer months.
Near the city centre is Cardiff Bay, home to the Senedd Cymru and the Wales Millennium Centre, and another major hub for relaxation and recreation, with a busy marina, destination of the water bus which plies the river Taff.

Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on January 18, 2022
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on January 18, 2022
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
