Whitchurch Road, Gabalfa, Cardiff

An unusual and highly flexible opportunity on Whitchurch Road, comprising two self-contained flats offered together as a single property, with accommodation arranged across the ground, first and attic floors. Renovated in 2016, the building offers a particularly adaptable layout that could appeal to investors, extended families or buyers seeking separate living and working spaces within one address.

The ground-floor flat provides a generous open-plan living and kitchen space, two bedrooms, both with en-suite bathrooms, a separate utility room and access directly to the rear courtyard. Upstairs, the first-floor flat has its own entrance from the shared hallway and includes a bay-fronted living room, bedroom, bathroom and separate kitchen. Above, an open staircase rises into a converted attic room, currently lending itself naturally to use as a study, studio or occasional room, with roof windows bringing in good natural light.

To the rear is a gravelled and paved courtyard enclosed by fencing and adjoining walls, together with access to a further parking area where there appears to be space for approximately two vehicles. The upper flat also benefits from a rear fire escape leading down into this area.

The position places the property within easy reach of the University Hospital of Wales and the established shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities found along Whitchurch Road. Heath Park and Roath Park are also accessible nearby, while local schools include Gabalfa Primary and Fairoak Primary. Regular bus services connect the area with Cardiff city centre, and nearby Northern Avenue and Eastern Avenue provide convenient routes towards the wider road network and M4.
