Nestled within the heart of the historic Rhiwbina Garden Village, 5 Pen y Dre stands as a testament to timeless charm and enduring heritage. This Grade II Cadw-listed residence, cherished by a single family for over six decades, now awaits a new custodian to restore its former glory and infuse it with contemporary vitality.

A Charming Approach

Approaching the property, one is immediately captivated by the ivy covered bridge crossing gracefully over a gentle brook. A path guides you to the original front door. This enchanting entrance sets the tone for the character and warmth that lies within.

Timeless Interiors with Potential

Stepping into the bright hallway, the home's rich history unfolds. To the front, the first reception room boasts dual-aspect windows, bathing the space in morning sunlight—a perfect setting for a cosy lounge or an inviting dining area. The second reception room, located at the rear, offers generous proportions and dual-aspect views, presenting a versatile space for relaxation or entertainment.

The kitchen, while retaining a basic setup, exudes a cheerful ambiance with ample natural light and direct access to the rear garden. This space offers a blank canvas, ready to be transformed into a modern culinary haven.

Upstairs: A Canvas for Your Vision

The upper floor currently features two spacious bedrooms. However, with the reinstatement of a previous wall, the original three-bedroom configuration can be easily restored, accommodating growing families or providing additional space for guests. A partially tiled shower room with a walk-in shower completes this level, offering functionality with room for modern enhancements.

Gardens: Your Private Oasis

The south-westerly facing rear garden, meticulously maintained over the years, provides a serene retreat for both relaxation and play. Sun-drenched and spacious, it offers ample opportunity for outdoor dining, gardening, or simply unwinding amidst nature. For those with grander designs, the garden presents potential for extension, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
