Property Oracle says ..
This four-bedroom terraced house in Cathays, Cardiff, presents a mixed bag of features. Its location is advantageous for students due to its proximity to Cardiff University and the city centre, and convenient transport links. Several primary schools are within a reasonable distance. The property itself, however, requires closer inspection. The provided photos reveal a need for some modernisation and possible minor repairs. The interior furnishings are cluttered in the images, not allowing a proper assessment of finishes or structural issues. The garden is present but small and rather overgrown. The listed price of £350,000 needs to be contextualized against its condition and limited additional information given (such as a detailed floorplan). While there is a degree of potential rental income, the value for money relative to the property’s condition is questionable. A thorough in-person viewing and further investigation into local comparable sales are necessary for a comprehensive evaluation. The lack of plot size information and the vague description of nearby properties further limits any definitive assessment of price relative to market value.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
