AI Summary
This is a heavily dated semi-detached bungalow in the sought-after Cyncoed suburb of Cardiff, priced at £360,000 — a figure that sits notably above the 24-month comp median of £281,750 for the area, raising genuine questions about value at the asking price. The property requires extensive work including damp remediation, potential asbestos testing of Artex ceilings, a full kitchen and bathroom replacement, and complete redecoration, meaning total costs to bring it to a liveable standard could be substantial. Buyers with a genuine passion for a project in a premium Cardiff postcode may find appeal here, but should commission a full structural survey and negotiate hard on price before proceeding.
