About
No Chain. A handsome detached home on Ty Glas Road, offering generous proportions, an established garden and considerable scope for its next owner to shape a house of real character.
Offered with no onward chain, the property has been well lived in and would now benefit from updating, yet its underlying qualities are immediately apparent.
The broad entrance hall sets the tone, with parquet flooring, stained glass detailing and an attractive timber staircase.
Two separate reception rooms provide excellent living space, both retaining fireplaces and period detailing.
The front lounge is particularly appealing, centred around a wide bay window and marble fireplace, while the second reception room opens into a conservatory overlooking the garden.
The kitchen sits towards the rear, accompanied by a ground floor WC, while the flexible accommodation includes an additional ground floor room which could serve as a bedroom, study or further reception space.
Upstairs, the unusual split landing arrangement leads to a collection of generously proportioned rooms, including a substantial principal bedroom with bay window and fitted storage, further bedrooms, a study, bathroom and separate WC.
Outside is where the scale of the plot becomes particularly apparent. A broad driveway provides substantial off-road parking, framed by lawn, established planting and mature greenery.
The rear garden is wonderfully established, with a generous lawn, mature trees, shrubs and secluded areas for sitting outside, together with gated access towards the fields beyond.
Llanishen remains one of north Cardiff's most enduringly popular residential areas, valued for its combination of green space and city convenience.
Llanishen village provides local shops and everyday amenities, while nearby Llanishen and Lisvane railway stations offer services towards Cardiff city centre.
Families are well served by established local schools, with Llanishen High School and a choice of primary schools nearby.
