Summary - THE ANCHORAGE APARTMENT 8 RIVER WALK PENARTH CF64 1SX
2 bed 1 bath Apartment
Bright riverside apartment with secure parking and a 999-year lease.
Spectacular uninterrupted river views from lounge and bedrooms
This second-floor riverside apartment offers bright, modern living with uninterrupted water views and immediate occupation. The open-plan lounge and newly fitted integrated kitchen create a flexible social space, complemented by two double bedrooms — the principal bedroom includes a practical dressing area and built-in wardrobes. Two Juliet balconies and large windows maximise the outlook and natural light.
The development provides secure gated access, an allocated off-street parking space, visitor parking and a large communal lawn facing the river. A lift serves all floors and the apartment benefits from a very long lease (999 years originally, c.980 years remaining), double glazing and contemporary bathroom fittings. The property is chain-free and ready to move into, which suits first-time buyers seeking low-maintenance riverside living or investors targeting a straightforward let.
Buyers should note some measurable running costs: an annual service charge of about £1,730.28 (circa £144.19 pcm) and ground rent of £201.29 per year. Heating is electric (room heaters), so running costs may be higher than gas-heated homes. Broadband speeds are reported slow in the area, and the local area scores as very deprived despite a low local crime rate. Council Tax is Band E, above average for the area.
Overall, this comfortable, well-kept apartment is ideal for those prioritising location and outlook over private outdoor space. It offers simple, secure riverside living with clear scope for cosmetic personalisation or a lettable investment with minimal immediate work required.
