Bay fronted, and with generous proportions, it’s both classy and imposing, all rolled into one. Museum Place is situated just off Park Place in a vibrant area and the buzz is palpable. Currently an art gallery and photographic studio on the ground floor, the upstairs spaces have bags of potential with traditional offices, toilets and kitchen areas. This elegant property forms part of Cardiff’s established professional business district, just a short hop away from City Hall, The National Museum of Wales and Cardiff University.

If we had you at ‘top-notch location’, you’d be in good company. Neighbours include businesses from web design and event management, to a host of professional services. Even the National Lottery Heritage Fund (Wales) calls Museum Place home.

In recent years, the area itself has developed into a popular mixed-use location and it’s worth noting that, whilst it’s been utilised as a private Art Gallery and studio space most recently, No.8 may also be suitable for a variety of uses with potential for development, subject to all the usual consents.

There’s intercom access on arrival and, once inside the hallway, three floors await, along with a basement, which provides a storage area. The whole building has gas central heating, and there’s an alarm system in place too. We love the original features, from the striking stone pillars that greet you at the entrance, to the ceiling roses and period fireplaces inside.

The ground floor is particularly spacious due to an extension to the rear where you’ll find a utility room, WC and good-sized storeroom. There are several rooms on this floor, previously gallery space, which flow seamlessly, lending themselves to endless possibilities. The front benefits from a lovely bay window and, throughout, the high ceilings create a light and airy atmosphere.

On the first and second floors you’ll find the layout almost mirrors one other, with a mixture of multi-purpose, carpeted office spaces, WCs, storage and a kitchen. As in the ground floor, the first floor also features a bay window.

Museum Place is immensely accessible too. Cardiff’s main road network, including the M4, and plenty of car parking are close by. The two main train stations are conveniently located within a very comfortable walking distance, and there are numerous bus stops, making for an easy commute all round.

It’s a short stroll to Queen Street Station in particular, one of Cardiff’s prime pedestrianised retail areas, as well as myriad green spaces for that all-important work-life balance. Alexandra Gardens and Gorsedd Gardens are just two of them, whilst Bute Park offers a lovely amble along the river, along with bowling and tennis.

There’s a lovely café culture if you fancy popping out for a quick cappuccino. And you’ll be spoilt for choice with an enormous variety of restaurants for a casual team lunch, or more formal entertaining with clients.
