Description

Welcome to 177a Pen Y Dre, a stylish and contemporary three bedroom bungalow conversion tucked away at the end of a quiet no through road in one of Cardiff’s most desirable residential locations. Offering peace, privacy and convenience in equal measure, this beautifully finished home is perfectly suited to those looking to downsize without compromise, offering modern open-plan living, low-maintenance outdoor space and the benefit of being move-in ready.

The property has been thoughtfully designed to create bright, practical and flexible accommodation that is as easy to live in as it is to maintain. Downsizers will particularly appreciate the ease of access, the generous ground floor bedroom, and the turnkey finish that means there is no work required, simply unpack and enjoy. For those seeking a modern lifestyle in a peaceful yet well-connected setting, this home is an outstanding choice.

Stepping inside, you are welcomed into a spacious hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the home, light, open and impeccably presented. To the rear lies the heart of the property, a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and living space, measuring over 22 feet in length. The kitchen has been designed with both style and practicality in mind, featuring sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances including oven, microwave, hob, fridge freezer and dishwasher, and extensive worktop space. This seamlessly flows into a versatile living and dining area where French doors open directly onto the rear garden, making this an ideal space for entertaining or simply enjoying a relaxed everyday lifestyle. A door opens to a handy utility room, already fitted with base units, worktop and plumbing for appliances.

On the ground floor sits a generous double bedroom positioned at the front of the property. This bright and welcoming room is complemented by fitted shutters that provide both style and privacy. With the utility room located directly alongside, there is excellent potential to create an ensuite shower room if desired. This straightforward adaptation would make the ground floor entirely self-contained, offering a future-proof solution for those keen to ensure long-term accessibility and ease of living.

Before heading upstairs, off the entrance hall you'll find a W/C, completing the downstairs layout, offering convenience for both residents and guests.

The first floor provides two further well proportioned double bedrooms, both finished in a contemporary style with neutral décor and soft carpeting underfoot. The principal bedroom overlooks the garden and benefits from a modern ensuite shower room, while the second bedroom enjoys a pleasant front aspect with glimpses of Whitchurch Golf Course. A stylish family bathroom with bath and overhead shower serves this level, completing the accommodation.

Outside, the property has been designed with low maintenance in mind, perfect for those who prefer to spend their time enjoying life rather than tending to a large garden. To the front, a private driveway offers off-road parking. The rear garden is both generous and practical, with a paved terrace for outdoor dining and entertaining, and a central area of high-quality artificial which ensures year-round greenery without the need for mowing. For buyers who would prefer a natural lawn, this could easily be replaced with turf if desired, but for many the current arrangement will be a huge benefit, allowing them to enjoy the space without the work. A further patio sits at the far end of the garden, allowing you to enjoy the sun, or shade, throughout the day, and the whole area is enclosed by timber fencing, making it both private and secure.

The setting of 177a Pen Y Dre is another key attraction. Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, there is no passing traffic, creating a sense of seclusion and calm that is increasingly hard to find in such a central location. Yet despite the peaceful surroundings, convenience is close at hand. Whitchurch train station is just a few minutes’ walk away, offering direct links into Cardiff city centre, while the nearby bus routes also provide excellent connections. For those who enjoy the outdoors, Caedelyn Parc is only a short stroll from the property, perfect for dog walks, leisurely strolls or meeting friends.

The property also benefits from its proximity to the highly sought-after villages of Whitchurch and Rhiwbina. Both are renowned for their vibrant community spirit, charming independent shops, cafés, and restaurants, as well as excellent medical and leisure facilities. Downsizers in particular will appreciate the ease of access to all amenities, from the convenience of local supermarkets to the enjoyment of Rhiwbina’s coffee shops or Whitchurch’s lively village atmosphere. It is a location that balances a relaxed lifestyle with everything you could possibly need on your doorstep.

This is a home designed for modern living, with the flexibility to adapt to changing needs over time. Its stylish interiors, easy-care garden, and peaceful setting make it particularly well suited to those looking to downsize, offering the rare combination of low-maintenance comfort in one of Cardiff’s most desirable locations.

With so many thoughtful details and such an enviable location, this is a property that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated. Early enquiries are strongly encouraged.
