AI Summary
This is a furnished two-bedroom first-floor flat on a well-connected arterial route into Cardiff city centre, offered at £1,250/month with a no-deposit option and bills-included flexibility — features that will appeal to budget-conscious renters. However, the visual condition is noticeably dated, with an 1980s-era kitchen, worn flooring, and aged fixtures that sit below expectations for the asking rent in this market. The area carries meaningful deprivation and crime indicators that prospective tenants and landlords alike should factor into their decision.
