Nestled discreetly behind a historic stone wall on Cardiff Road, The Clerestory is a truly unique and character-filled property, hidden in the heart of Llandaff.
Accessible through an intriguing black gate, this enchanting Grade II listed mews home is one of three converted properties tucked away behind the grand walls of this historic Cardiff mansion. It's a secret sanctuary, offering a slice of history and charm just moments from Llandaff's shops, pubs, the iconic Llandaff Cathedral, and some of Cardiff’s most renowned schools, including The Bishop of Llandaff, The Cathedral School, and Howell’s School.
As you step through the charming wooden door in the stone wall, you are greeted by a private courtyard garden. Inside, this upside-down home bursts with character at every turn.
On the ground floor, the home offers a versatile layout, with two large double bedrooms, both filled with period features and charm. One of these bedrooms opens directly onto the courtyard garden, creating a serene connection to this tranquil outdoor, space perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
A third room, currently used as a sitting room but also perfect as a bedroom, adds flexibility to the layout. The family bathroom, with its stunning flagstone floors and statement bath, echoes the home’s historic character while providing modern comfort.
Upstairs, the real showstopper is revealed: a breathtaking, double-height living and dining room, formerly the mansion's billiards room, topped of by the striking glass lantern ceiling. This vast, character-packed space is nothing short of extraordinary, featuring exposed beams, intricate wood panelling, a grand stone fireplace with vibrant green hearth tiles, and beautiful stained glass windows. This room is a striking blend of history and grandeur, creating an unforgettable space for entertaining or simply enjoying everyday life. This room hides another secret, accessed via a door to the right of the fireplace, a hidden ladder rises to a storage area, spanning the entire width of the room below.
Adjoining the living room is the kitchen, also rich in history and charm. With its double-height ceilings, exposed stone walls, and features like a corner fireplace and an arrow-slit window, the kitchen offers an unexpected yet delightful culinary space.

One main attraction to the local area is Llandaff Cathedral and despite being enclosed on all sides by the lively modern city of Cardiff, there is the Llandaff conservation area which remains comparatively unspoilt and surprisingly tranquil. Just 2 miles from Llandaff is the area of Radyr which has one of the best schools in Cardiff - Radyr Comprehensive School. Radyr appeals to families and commuters, offering easy access to Radyr train station and great links to the M4 & A470. Situated just outside Llandaff is the picturesque area of St Fagans, home of the Wales National History Museum. St Fagans offers a country feel and yet is only a 15 minute drive away from Cardiff City Centre.
The area boasts the University Hospital of Wales, the University of Wales Institute (UWIC) and the BBC which draws more young professionals and investors to the surrounding areas. We also have a wide range of primary and secondary schools in our area including Bishop of Llandaff High School and Howells School.
