Elegant bay-fronted period home on sought-after Bishops Road, offering nearly 2,000 sq ft, spacious living areas, four bedrooms including a top-floor principal suite, gated parking and a landscaped south-east facing garden, all set in the heart of Whitchurch village.
Set along Bishops Road — one of Whitchurch’s most coveted and rarely available addresses — this distinguished period bay-fronted semi-detached home occupies a prime position in the very heart of the village. Extended and thoughtfully improved by the current owners, it now offers just under 2,000 sq ft of generous, beautifully arranged accommodation across three floors, blending the charm of its early architecture with the ease of modern family living.
A wide entrance porch and welcoming hallway introduce the home’s sense of scale. To the front, the formal living room enjoys the classic bay window and an elegant atmosphere, while a separate sitting room provides an additional quiet retreat. To the rear, the property opens into a superb family room and a spacious kitchen/diner — a bright and versatile space designed for both relaxed day-to-day living and larger gatherings, with seamless access to the garden. A well-appointed utility room and a cloakroom/WC offer excellent practicality on the ground floor.
The first floor comprises three comfortable bedrooms and a dedicated home office, served by a stylish family bathroom. The entire second floor is devoted to a generous principal suite, complete with elevated views and a contemporary en-suite shower room, creating a private and peaceful retreat.
Outside, the property continues to impress. A gated driveway provides valuable off-road parking, while the south-east facing rear garden is a wonderfully private space, thoughtfully landscaped and perfectly oriented for morning and afternoon sun. A large patio with awning provides an inviting setting for outdoor dining, with the remainder laid to lawn for easy enjoyment.
Whitchurch remains one of north Cardiff’s most sought-after locations, celebrated for its village feel, strong community and excellent amenities. The property lies within catchment for highly regarded schools including Melin Gruffydd, Glantaf, Whitchurch Primary and Whitchurch High School. Transport connections are superb, with a main bus route along nearby Merthyr Road, and train stations at Llandaff North, Coryton and Rhiwbina offering convenient access across the city and beyond. Cardiff city centre is approximately 4–5 km away, while the Taff Trail can be easily reached through Hailey Park in Llandaff North. Cardiff’s growth as a dynamic capital city provides strong onward links to Bristol, London and wider destinations.
Opportunities to acquire homes of this calibre on Bishops Road are rare. Early viewing is strongly recommended.
