No chain and vacant possession. A handsome period red-brick double bay-fronted home in the heart of Whitchurch village, offering excellent potential to modernise, improve and add value.
Cottrell Road is an extremely popular residential address, positioned just off Mervyn Road and within easy reach of the many amenities, schools and transport links that make Whitchurch one of north Cardiff’s most desirable suburbs.
The property itself is a characterful mid-terrace dwelling, now requiring updating throughout, but offering a wonderful opportunity for a prospective purchaser to create a home to their own style and specification.
With attractive period proportions, a traditional double bay-fronted elevation and scope for further improvement, this is a property with considerable potential.
The accommodation briefly comprises a storm porch, entrance hall, living room, dining room, fitted galley kitchen and cloakroom/wc to the ground floor.
To the first floor are three bedrooms and a family bathroom, while a loft room provides additional useful space.
The property further benefits from some uPVC double glazing, gas central heating via a combination boiler, and low maintenance gardens to both the front and rear elevations.
Subject to the necessary planning permissions and consents being obtained, there may be potential to extend and further enhance the accommodation, making this an ideal opportunity for buyers seeking a project in a prime village location.
Cottrell Road enjoys a particularly convenient position in the heart of Whitchurch village, just a short walk from a wide range of independent shops, cafés, restaurants, everyday amenities and public transport links.
The area is also well served by highly regarded schools at both primary and secondary levels, including Melin Gruffydd, Whitchurch Primary, Glan Taf and Whitchurch High School.
Whitchurch remains one of Cardiff’s most sought-after suburbs, combining a strong village atmosphere with excellent connectivity into the city centre and surrounding areas.
Its mix of green spaces, local facilities, community feel and access to major road and rail links continues to make it a firm favourite with families, professionals and downsizers alike.
Cardiff, as Wales’ capital city, offers an exceptional range of cultural, sporting, retail and leisure facilities, together with major employers, universities, parks, restaurants and waterfront attractions at Cardiff Bay.
The city provides the ideal balance between vibrant capital city living and access to established residential communities such as Whitchurch.
Offered to the market with no onward chain and vacant possession, this is an exciting opportunity to acquire a period home in a first-class Whitchurch location, with the scope to modernise, enhance and add long-term value.
