Full Description: This immaculate apartment is the epitome of city living, with open views across the river, the city and beyond. <br /><br />The Living Space<br /><br />The lift brings you to the fourth floor, and the front door opens onto a welcoming hallway . Two large cupboards can take care of coats, cases, the vacuum and the clutter of everyday life, so the rest of the apartment can stay calm.<br /><br />The main room is clearly the heart of the home. Living, dining and cooking share one generous space, arranged to make the most of the views. Double-glazed French doors lead out to the generous balcony and let daylight pour across the room from morning onwards. The current owners have decorated it with real personality and a sense of fun, which shows how well the room takes on whatever character you bring to it.<br /><br />The kitchen runs along one end of the room, with an excellent range of white units, with integrated appliances throughout: an electric oven and hob, fridge-freezer, dishwasher and washer-dryer. A one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink finishes it practically. You can cook here and still hold a conversation with whoever is on the sofa, or watch the light change over the water while the kettle boils.<br /><br />The Bedrooms<br /><br />Both bedrooms are true doubles. The principal bedroom has large windows framing the same wide outlook as the living room, so you wake to the river rather than the wall of a neighbouring block. A large fitted wardrobe takes care of storage, and a private en suite means mornings never involve a queue.<br /><br />The second bedroom looks straight out over the river through a broad window. It has its own fitted double wardrobe with plenty of room inside, which makes it an easy guest room, a comfortable spare, or a study with a better view than most offices.<br /><br />The main bathroom is crisp and contemporary. It has a white panelled bath with a shower over, a neat basin and WC, tiled splashbacks and vinyl flooring underfoot. It's simple and well put together.<br /><br />The Outside<br /><br />The balcony is the apartment's outdoor room. It has space for a small table and a couple of chairs, for a coffee before work or a glass of something as the lights come on across the city. Below, an allocated undercover parking space keeps the car dry and secure, and visitor parking means friends don't have to circle the block. A lift serves every floor.<br /><br />The apartment has also been run successfully as a short-term let. Buyers looking for a ready-made investment will find the groundwork already laid, and the furnishings can stay by negotiation.<br /><br />The Area<br /><br />Overstone Court sits between Cardiff's city centre and Cardiff Bay, and you can be at either within minutes. Head south and the Bay opens out around Mermaid Quay, the Wales Millennium Centre and the Norwegian Church, with the Cardiff Bay Barrage offering a long, breezy walk or cycle out towards Penarth. The Cardiff Bay Wetlands Reserve and Hamadryad Park bring a surprising amount of green to the waterside. Head north and the Taff Trail leads you up to Bute Park and Cardiff Castle in the middle of the city.<br /><br />For families, nearby schools include Mount Stuart Primary, St Mary the Virgin Church in Wales Primary and the Welsh-medium Ysgol Hamadryad. Transport links are excellent; Cardiff Central and Cardiff Bay stations are both close at hand, and the A4232 connects quickly to the M4 for Newport, Bristol and beyond. On match days and concert nights, the Principality Stadium is close enough to walk to, and you can leave the car where it is.<br /><br />The apartment could be sold fully furnished, subject to negotiation. <br /><br /><br />Tenure: Leasehold<br />Council Tax Band: E<br />Local Authority: Cardiff
