BRAND NEWLY REFURBISHED STUDIO WITH UNIQUE MEZZANINE - IDEAL FIRST-TIME BUY OR INVESTMENT - NO CHAIN

Hafren Properties is delighted to present this beautifully refurbished first-floor studio apartment in the highly sought-after Earle Place, CF5. Ready to move into immediately, this property offers a stylish, low-maintenance home for first-time buyers, or a turn-key investment with excellent returns.

LOUNGE/DINING ROOM (4.5m x 4.2m)

A bright and modern open-plan living space with a sleek fitted kitchen, fresh décor, and practical storage. The refurbishment has been completed to a high standard throughout, with good natural light and a clean, contemporary finish.

MEZZANINE (6.15m x 1.75m)

A key feature of this flat is the elevated mezzanine sleeping area - a clever design that frees up the floorplan and offers a sense of separation rarely found in studios. Currently a cosy loft-style space with a sloping ceiling, but with potential (subject to planning) for future reconfiguration such as a dormer, which could significantly enhance the usable space.

BATHROOM (2.67m x 1.57m)

A modern shower room with shower cubicle, wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail.

Total Area: approx. 31m²

EPC: D

Council Tax: Band B

Parking: Residents' street permit

Garden: None

LOCATION

Earle Place is superbly positioned - moments from Pontcanna's shops, cafés and parks, and around a 10-minute walk to Cardiff City Centre. Cowbridge Road East is on your doorstep, offering independent eateries, supermarkets, and excellent transport links.

Despite its centrality, the area retains that coveted community charm and Victorian vibe, with St John's Crescent and the gothic St John's Church providing a picturesque leafy backdrop.

INVESTMENT POTENTIAL

A strong buy-to-let or serviced accommodation investment.

Current SA gross average (last 12 months): £1,775 per month
