This second-floor, one-bedroom retirement apartment offers comfortable, low-maintenance living within easy walking distance of Carmarthen town centre. The bright living room opens via French doors onto a private balcony; secure communal entrances and two lifts make daily access straightforward.
Residents benefit from on-site amenities including a lounge, conservatory, guest suite, laundry room and landscaped gardens, plus communal events that support an active social life. Off-street parking is available and the property is chain free, allowing a quicker move.
Important practical points: the lease has 125 years remaining and the EPC is C, but heating is electric with underfloor heating which can be costly. Service charge is approximately £1,000 per year and the ground rent is £1,399.24 per year — both paid six-monthly.
Location factors to note: the building sits in a town classified as very deprived with a very high crime rate locally. While the flat suits an independent retiree seeking social amenities and convenience, prospective buyers should weigh ongoing charges and local safety considerations before viewing.
