4 bed detached house for sale

Penhill Court, Pontcanna, Cardiff CF11

A Rare Detached 1970s Home in a Prime Pontcanna Location

Set back from the hustle and bustle, this beautifully maintained detached property offers a peaceful lifestyle just moments from the vibrant bistros of Pontcanna and the green open spaces of local parks. Ideally located within walking distance of Cardiff city centre and world-class events, it provides both convenience and tranquillity in equal measure.

The home is set in generous landscaped grounds, featuring a sun terrace to the side, an elevated lawn surrounded by mature trees, and a leafy canopy that creates dappled sunlight and natural privacy. An elevated detached setting, complete with a large garage and carport, adds to the feeling of space and seclusion.

Inside, the accommodation includes a welcoming porch and cloakroom, a spacious living and dining room that opens onto the terrace, and a well-proportioned kitchen and breakfast room. A separate utility room interlinks with the porch, kitchen, and double garage, providing a practical and well-connected layout. Upstairs, there are four good-sized bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with en-suite, and a modern family bathroom.

Lovingly cared for by the same owner for over 30 years, the home has been beautifully maintained throughout, including a recently replaced roof. The property also benefits from a double garage and offers fantastic potential for future development, with full planning permission granted for a first-floor extension above the existing garage (Application No: 23/00824/hse).

A rare opportunity to secure a much-loved and well-presented home in one of Cardiff’s most desirable residential areas.
