" What we love most about this property is its beautiful period character, especially the original wooden floorboards and the lovely ceiling mouldings that provide so much charm. It has also been an amazing place to live logistically; we have absolutely loved being so close to the local parks for walks, and having all the shopping, cafes, and restaurants on Wellfield Road right on our doorstep."The owners

Every home sold in the Penylan ward (within CF23 5) in the twelve months to April 2026, not only ours. The change compares each kind of home against its own kind a year earlier — detached against detached, flats against flats — because a median follows what happened to sell as much as what it is worth. Contains HM Land Registry data © Crown copyright and database right, licensed under the Open Government Licence v3.0. Sales take about three months to reach the register.
Mortgages & protection
A repayment estimate only. Change any of it and see what it does — then let Grosvenor May tell you what you can actually borrow.
Your home may be repossessed if you do not keep up repayments on your mortgage.
