Flats converted from houses
Often, flats will have been created from splitting a larger property into self contained units. The number of flats within the building will vary depending on the size of the building and the number of bedrooms within the flats.
Parking in flats
Parking varies with this style of flat. Often it is on-street parking, and your negotiator will be able to tell you whether this is resident permit parking, or free parking. Residents permits in Cardiff normally only cost £5 per annum for each permit for the first two permits. Sometimes, these flats will come with designated parking spaces, or a garage, but you will need to check what flats have access to what parking spaces.
Communal areas in flats
These types of properties do not have concierges, and therefore no service charges. This can sometimes keep the cost of the flat down, and this style of flat will have a large price variation that the purpose built apartments. On your viewing the CPS Homes negotiator will point out access to communal areas, and any extras such as electronic door entry.
