SMART CITY LIVING
IF there’s a budget of about £600k allocated for your next property search you could enjoy the lifestyle and the convenience of living in the trendy suburb of Canton in Cardiff within walking distance of local boutique shops and eateries as well as the city centre.
This is a super stylish home that is like something out of a glossy interiors magazine.
The current owners of this period property have successfully reworked the space to provide a show-stopping open-plan kitchen/diner at the rear of the home that opens out onto the garden.
And the interior design scheme is pretty impressive too.
Leaving the steel beams on show, that have been put in place to allow walls to come down and the back of the house to be opened up, is a clever touch.
The steel beams bring a contemporary, raw and urban feel to the space that is softened by the use of natural materials; exposed bricks, wooden flooring, leather and wood furniture, and marble worktops all work together to produce an inviting, warm and modern area.
Natural colours provide a subtle backdrop but the choice of dark kitchen units is ideal, as it visually links them to the steel beams and pendant lighting above.
Throughout the home there are delightful period features to discover including original internal doors, ceiling detailing, coving, picture rails and skirtings, and numerous pretty fireplaces.
The hall is a stylish space where the period details such as the Minton tiled floor, staircase and door architrave is allowed to dominate against a crisp, white backdrop.
The tasteful interior design throughout the home mixes period features and classic design with a contemporary edge.
The consistent pale and warm colour palette provides harmony between the rooms and creates a calm and peaceful ambiance to the home.
The house has four bedrooms on the first floor, the smallest one currently being used as a walk-in wardrobe off the master bedroom, plus a super stylish family bathroom.
The house is on market for a guide price of £600k, give the Cardiff branch of Fine & Country a call on 029 2169 0690 to find out more
