Mount Stuart Square,Cardiff,CF10 5LR

Step into history with this unique two-bedroom apartment, situated within the prestigious Grade II* listed Empire House, opposite the iconic Coal Exchange in Cardiff Bay. This exceptional residence, once the original boardroom, offers a remarkable blend of Neo-Georgian architecture and contemporary living, complemented by a friendly concierge service and allocated parking.

Upon entry, the building’s spectacular heritage is immediately apparent, with marble floors, mahogany panelled walls, and a beautifully refurbished original New York-style cage lift guiding you to your door.

The heart of this home is truly sensational: an open-plan lounge and dining area which was historically the building's boardroom. This grand space boasts intricately moulded high ceilings and expansive windows with electric blinds, filling the area with natural light. The room is fully panelled, revealing secret doors with original shipping labels, an original marble fireplace, and elegant woodblock flooring. A striking clear spiral staircase ascends to the principal bedroom mezzanine, adding a dramatic architectural element.

Adjacent to the main living space is a versatile room, also featuring panelling, woodblock flooring, and large windows. This area is ideal for a home office or can convert to a comfortable spare bedroom.

A separate, extensively fitted kitchen ensures culinary activities remain distinct from the main living area. It features modern cabinetry, quartz worktops, and integrated appliances including a dishwasher and washer/dryer, providing ample workspace for meal preparation.

The principal bedroom is located on a private mezzanine level, offering an entrance area, generous sleeping space, and a discreet door leading to a large en-suite. This en-suite is equipped with a bath and shower, underfloor heating, and a separate airing cupboard. From this elevated position, the exquisite ceiling mouldings are even more impressive, especially with the feature lighting creating a magical ambience at night. Integrated wardrobes provide plenty of storage.

A second full bathroom features a large waterfall shower and underfloor heating. This well-appointed bathroom can serve as a ground-floor facility or an en-suite to the adjacent versatile room.

Outside, the apartment benefits from an allocated parking space within a secure, gated car park.

This is a truly distinctive and special apartment, offering a rare opportunity to reside in a piece of Cardiff's heritage, meticulously updated for modern comfort.
