The Crescent, Conway Road, Pontcanna Cardiff CF11 9QL

There is no doubting that Pontcanna is one of Cardiff’s most sought-after suburbs to live in. After all, it boasts three of the city’s most celebrated restaurants – including Cardiff’s first Michelin-starred establishment – alongside many other high quality, independent businesses. 3 The Crescent in Pontcanna is a four-storey townhouse within a secluded and quiet setting, tucked away off the attractively tree-lined Conway Road which has a great pub on the way to the park at the end of the road.

With a gated access, privacy is assured and, rarely in Pontcanna, there is off-road parking for two cars. The Crescent forms part of the redevelopment of the former St Winefride’s Hospital site carried out by award-winning local developer, Portabella in 2014. The setting has matured well, with plenty of leafy greenery in the communal garden areas to the front of the houses where there are also community benches for neighbourly get-togethers.

The house itself has been extraordinarily well maintained, having been in the current ownership for the entirety of its 11 years. It’s clear that the house has been fastidiously cared for and that it will offer an immaculate new home to its next owners.

The accommodation is arranged over four floors; at ground floor there is a large kitchen which includes lots of space for sofas and a table and chairs, creating the sort of family hub space that everyone wants in a kitchen. The kitchen cabinetry is modern and well equipped with stone worktops and the full host of built-in appliances (including two ovens and a full-sized wine fridge) whilst there are wide, sliding doors leading out to the large terrace and west-facing landscaped rear garden.

There is a sitting room to the front of the property which is currently used as a home-office, but which has also been used as a ground floor bedroom for a convalescing relative, demonstrating its versatility. It would equally suit being a playroom, being within supervision sight of the family kitchen. There is a downstairs W.C., understairs store cupboard, and a laundry closet with plumbing for the washing machine, all situated off the wide and spacious central hall.

The main family living room is on the first floor, a very bright room which has French doors and a Juliet balcony looking out across the communal front lawn. Also on the first is the principal bedroom suite where the bedroom also has French doors out to its own balcony, a walk-in dressing room and a very tasteful en-suite with double basins and large shower.

To the second floor there are three further bedrooms, the front one being particularly generous in size, currently affording a TV sitting area along with the double bed. Of the two rear bedrooms, one is currently set up as a dressing room with a long bank of fitted wardrobes, but these could be easily redeployed elsewhere in larger bedrooms to return this to a bedroom.

The third floor has a great deal of versatility potentially offering a principal bedroom suite of large bedroom, dressing room and en-suite or alternatively would make a splendid room for homeworking featuring wide, sliding patio doors leading out to a lovely roof terrace.

Outside, the property enjoys a charming, westerly facing rear garden which has been thoughtfully and extensively landscaped. Features include a large, decked terrace directly adjoining the kitchen, afforded privacy and seclusion by mature, raised borders; an artificial lawn area; and a stone paved terrace to the far end, perfect for barbecues.

The property further benefits from two dedicated parking spaces within the secure, electric-gated courtyard.

The property benefits from air-source heating with an upgraded Vaillant heat pump, it is a wet underfloor system with thermostatic controls in each room. The absence of radiators will delight those who have struggled to accommodate them in arranging furniture before.
