Originally constructed for a former Lord Mayor of Cardiff, Llwynderw offers a rare opportunity to purchase a substantial, detached house, in an elevated position providing panoramic views over Cardiff and the Bristol Channel beyond. The house has well balanced accommodation with a central hallway and stands on a particularly generous plot providing good sized gardens to the front and the rear. A full refurbishment has recently been carried out to a very high standard, retaining many of the original features and adding new ones of a similar high standard. Llwynderw is just over a mile from the Cathedral and shopping centre at Llandaff and 50 yards or so from the local sprinter railway station, which provides a frequent service to the centre of the City, some 3 miles away.

This has power, light, wash basin with cold water supply and a cold water tap outside, adjacent to the doors. From this area, steps and a separate ramp lead up the front garden to a pathway of paviors which leads to the entrance doors. Gardens on either side are laid to paved and levelled terraces with beds planted with a wide variety of flowers and shrubs, the whole enjoying a superb southerly aspect overlooking school playing fields, Cardiff and the Bristol Channel beyond. From here, pathways sweep round either side of the house and provide access to the rear. Imposing double entrance doors have glazed panels and wrought iron furniture and open to the
