Summary - 18 PARKLANDS COURT SKETTY SWANSEA SA2 8LZ
1 bed 1 bath Retirement Property
Comfortable second-floor home with communal facilities and easy access to shops and transport.
Second-floor one-bedroom in purpose-built over-55s complex
Comfortable second-floor one-bedroom home in a purpose-built over-55s complex, positioned a short walk from shops, a post office and regular bus routes to Swansea city centre and Mumbles. The block offers communal living space, laundry, a communal kitchen and an on-site manager, creating easy, sociable retirement living with visible communal grounds and on-site parking.
The flat has a welcoming hall, a medium-sized lounge, separate fitted kitchen, double bedroom and a three-piece shower room. Electric storage heaters and double glazing provide basic comfort; the EPC is rated C. Service charge is modest for the type of scheme and council tax band is low, helping to control ongoing costs.
Important practical note: the lease has around 60 years remaining. That remaining term will restrict mortgage options and many lenders may refuse to lend against this lease, which affects buyers who need mortgage finance. The property is therefore most suitable for cash buyers, shared ownership with appropriate checks, or those prepared to investigate lease-extension possibilities.
Overall this is a straightforward, well-located retirement apartment that suits a single person or couple seeking convenience, communal support and easy access to local amenities. Buyers should factor in the electric heating, the limited lease length and the need to confirm lending options before committing.
