Clifton Street, Caerphilly, CF83

For buyers who enjoy a project, this three-bedroom terrace on Clifton Street, Caerphilly, has plenty to work with. The house needs modernising throughout, but the layout already has much in its favour. There’s a separate sitting room, a kitchen with space to gather around the table and a walled garden to the rear. For a first-time buyer keen to take on a renovation, it’s an opportunity to choose everything from the kitchen cabinetry to the planting in the garden.

The kitchen is a good place to start imagining what the house could become. Set at the rear, it measures approximately 3.52m by 3.44m, with a window above the sink looking out towards the garden. There’s room for a table in the centre, so anyone planning a refit can keep family meals at the heart of the house. The existing units occupy just part of the available wall space, leaving scope to introduce more storage, extend the worktops and still have somewhere to sit with a coffee.

At the front, the sitting room has a more traditional feel. A tall window brings in natural light, while picture rails, coving and a tiled fireplace give the room some character to carry through into a refurbishment. Its near-square shape makes it easy to arrange a sofa and armchairs around the fireplace. An entrance hallway runs alongside, with stairs to the first floor.

Beyond the kitchen is a ground-floor shower room with a washbasin and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A separate WC sits off the rear lobby, which also opens onto the garden.

Upstairs, all three bedrooms lead off the landing. The largest looks out to the front and measures approximately 3.84m by 2.35m, with space for a double bed and freestanding furniture. The second bedroom overlooks the rear garden, while the third, at the front, would suit a child’s room or a home office. A window on the landing brings daylight into the centre of the upstairs accommodation.

Outside, the walled rear garden offers a project in its own right. Much of it is paved, with an older shed to one side and room to introduce planting around the edges. A table and chairs, a few raised beds and a climber against the whitewashed wall could make this a lovely spot for breakfast outdoors. Equally, buyers who enjoy gardening have room to lift some of the paving and create a greener space of their own.

With approximately 65.5 sq m across two floors, this Clifton Street home will appeal to anyone looking for a renovation where the essentials are already in place, with the freedom to decide how their finished home will look and feel.

Anti Money Laundering Regulations

We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property as prescribed by the Money Laundering Regulations 2017. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Coadjute who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £54 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Coadjute, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Coadjute to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.
