Lofts in Penarth
Flats and maisonettes account for 36% of homes here. If yours is on the top floor, the loft above is often shared, and the freeholder or managing agent will need to agree to any work.
About a quarter of homes here are terraced (25%). In a smaller loft, storage tends to end up sitting on the insulation, so a modest raised floor is often worth adding.
Private renting is common in Penarth (22% of households). Landlords are responsible for the building, and a warm, well-ventilated loft is one of the simpler improvements to a rented home.
