Property Oracle says ..
This three-bedroom, two-bathroom bungalow on Melville Avenue in Old St. Mellons, Cardiff, presents a mixed bag for prospective buyers. The property boasts a sizable footprint of 2,772.78 sqft and sits on what appears to be a generous plot with a mature garden, offering considerable space for both indoor and outdoor living. The location in Old St. Mellons is generally considered desirable, with nearby schools and relatively easy access to Cardiff. However, the property’s interior requires an update. The provided photographs reveal dated finishes, carpets, and a kitchen in need of modernisation. While the structure seems sound, potential buyers should budget for significant renovations to bring the property up to contemporary standards. The asking price of £450,000 is a consideration. Considering the property’s size and location, the price appears competitive but it is also not a bargain when accounting for the cost of renovations. A thorough survey would be essential to assess the extent of work required and accurately gauge the property’s true value for money. Overall, the property presents a significant opportunity for someone willing to invest the time and money into a renovation project, offering a spacious family home in a desirable Cardiff location.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
