With the passing of time and the passing of multiple owners, it can be increasingly difficult to find a period property with the majority of its original features still intact.
Years of upgrading, modernising, changing interior design trends, and reworking of internal spaces to make them more suited for modern living, has resulted in many houses from the past losing their original character to become homes for the present and future.
But not this gem, hiding in a suburb in Cardiff. Some of the decor may be like a tour through each decade of interior trends, but the soul of the house remains almost wholly intact; and it's wonderful.
