About Barnsley
Barnsley began as a farming district before growing into the settled residential suburb it is today, taking its name from the Yorkshire town when the local school opened here in 1865.
Housing leans toward larger blocks and established family homes, with an easy run to Cardiff's shops and rail line and to Speers Point Park on the lake.
Who buys here
Barnsley draws family buyers after space and value close to the M1 and Cardiff, rather than a beachside or inner-city crowd. Thirty-six houses sold in the past year, with values up 5.7% over 12 months.
