Description

Waterfront views, immaculate presentation and exceptional natural light — this beautifully maintained one-bedroom apartment on Jim Driscoll Way offers stylish Bay living in one of Cardiff’s most convenient locations.

Presented in outstanding condition and finished in neutral tones throughout, this apartment immediately feels bright, spacious and move-in ready. The main living space is generously proportioned and designed for modern living, with full-height double doors opening onto a private balcony. From here, you can enjoy far-reaching water views stretching across Cardiff Bay towards Penarth Marina, the Barrage and the surrounding wetlands — a view that changes beautifully with the seasons.

The kitchen is thoughtfully recessed from the main living area, creating clear separation while maintaining a sociable, open feel. It offers excellent storage, worktop space and practicality for both everyday cooking and entertaining.

The bedroom is an impressive double room, currently accommodating a king-size bed alongside large wardrobes while still retaining comfortable floor space — a rare find in comparable apartments. The bathroom is finished in clean, neutral tones and comprises a bath with shower over, wash basin and WC.

The property further benefits from an allocated parking space, adding everyday convenience and long-term value.

Perfectly positioned between Cardiff Bay and the city centre, the apartment offers the best of both worlds — waterfront lifestyle and city convenience.

Within minutes you have access to Cardiff Bay Retail Park, with major retailers including Boots, Sports Direct and Pets at Home, alongside nearby cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities. The Red Dragon Centre offers cinema, gym and dining options, while the Barrage and Wetlands provide scenic walking, running and cycling routes right on your doorstep.

For commuters, connectivity is excellent. Cardiff City Centre and Cardiff Central Station are approximately one mile away, while nearby rail stations at Grangetown and Cardiff Bay provide additional transport options. The A4232 link road is easily accessible, offering direct routes towards the M4 and beyond.

Whether you are looking for your first home, a stylish city base or a strong investment opportunity, this location continues to see high demand thanks to its balance of lifestyle, convenience and green space.

Apartments in this position, condition and with these views are rarely available for long. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
