1-5 Crown Court is positioned in a quiet courtyard setting in the heart of Cardiff City Centre. The Courtyard is accessed via Crown Court Passage which is situated on Duke Street – immediately opposite the main entrance to Cardiff Castle. Cardiff Castle being one of Cardiff’s biggest tourist attractions, as well as the home to numerous live concerts.
Originally constructed as a series of terraced buildings making up Cardiff Crown Court. Early in the 20th Century the buildings were then converted to offices, and subsequently converted to residential in 2008. The buildings are currently laid out as 5 houses on ground, first and second floors – set around an attractive landscaped courtyard which is accessed off Duke Street via Crown Court Passage.
In 2019 consent was granted for the conversion of Houses 2-3 into one 6 bedroomed multiple occupation unit and in 2020 consent was granted to create 3 self contained flats at roof level. Although these consents haven’t been enacted, they illustrate the potential to increase the massing and have nevertheless created a precedent.
Offers in the region of £2,000,000 are required for the freehold interest.
