Kyle Avenue, Rhiwbina, Cardiff, CF14

Set on the peaceful and tree-lined Kyle Avenue, this red brick, bay-fronted semi-detached home is an ideal choice for a growing family seeking space, comfort and character in equal measure. Immaculately presented throughout, the property has been thoughtfully extended to now offer five bedrooms and an abundance of versatile living space, all while maintaining the period charm that makes homes in this area so desirable.

The location is perfect for families. Situated within the sought-after catchment area for Rhiwbeina Primary School and the ever-popular Whitchurch High School, it’s a neighbourhood that balances convenience with a strong sense of community. You’re moments away from excellent transport links, whether you're heading into Cardiff City Centre by train, bus, or car, or looking for easy routes out of the city via the A470 or M4. Local amenities, cafes, and shops are all within easy reach, and the area is rich in parks and green spaces for weekend adventures with the family.

Step inside and you’ll be immediately struck by the light and airy atmosphere that flows throughout the home. The entrance hallway sets the tone with original black and white tiled flooring and a handy understairs storage cupboard, which also houses the modern combi boiler. This thoughtful blend of period features and contemporary updates continues throughout the property.

The two original reception rooms have been opened up to create a large and flexible family space that adapts beautifully to everyday living and entertaining. At the front, the bay window frames views over the quiet, leafy avenue and allows light to pour in. This space flows naturally into the rear reception and kitchen, now a heart-of-the-home area designed with style and practicality in mind.

The kitchen features solid wooden countertops, a generous breakfast bar perfect for family breakfasts or casual dining, and charming shaker-style units in a tasteful duck egg blue. A Belfast-style ceramic sink and integrated dishwasher enhance the classic aesthetic, while a built-in dresser in the alcove continues the cabinetry style and offers further storage. Just off the kitchen, you’ll find a useful pantry/utility cupboard with plumbing for a washing machine – keeping the main living spaces clutter-free and practical for everyday family life.

At the rear of the house, a set of French doors open into what is currently used as a playroom – an ideal spot for little ones to enjoy, though equally suited as a snug, home office or formal dining space. This room in turn opens onto the south-facing patio through another set of French doors – the perfect setup for summer gatherings and relaxed family evenings in the garden. A downstairs W/C is discreetly tucked away, offering additional convenience.

The first floor offers three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two generous doubles and a third single – perfect as a nursery or home office. The family bathroom has been finished to a high standard, offering both a full-size bath and a separate step-in shower cubicle, complete with a clean and modern white suite.

The loft conversion adds a further two bedrooms to the home. The main loft bedroom is a standout feature, with striking ceiling beams and a large window that overlooks the private, south-facing rear garden. The second loft room is currently set up as a home office but could easily serve as a guest bedroom, teenager's room or even be reconfigured into an en-suite with dressing room, subject to any necessary consents.

Outside, the rear garden is a true retreat. South-facing and bathed in sunlight for most of the day, it’s both secluded and spacious. A generous patio offers the perfect space for outdoor dining and entertaining, while the large lawn, bordered by mature shrubs and established trees, creates a sense of peace and privacy that’s rare to find.

17 Kyle Avenue is a home that truly has it all – generous proportions, charming features, and a location that supports a vibrant family life. With its extended layout and thoughtful design, it’s ready to welcome a new family ready to make their own memories here.
