About Gabalfa
Gabalfa gives you the best of both worlds: everyday convenience right on your doorstep and a real sense of community. You've got supermarkets, cafés, and 13 restaurants within easy reach, plus four primary schools and Cathays High School all in the neighbourhood. Crime here runs below the UK average and it's falling, which matters.
House prices are more affordable than you'll find in neighbouring Heath and Riverside. Your living costs will be lower too — particularly what you'll spend on transport and utilities compared to the national average.
Getting around is straightforward. The A48 is close by for easy access, and you've got reliable bus routes into central Cardiff whenever you need them. A notably high rate of home-working in the neighbourhood suggests plenty of residents have found the balance they're after: good connectivity without sacrificing local amenity and community feel.
