Set on the first floor and overlooking well‑kept communal gardens, this two‑bedroom apartment suits someone looking to downsize or retire locally. The living/dining room opens onto a balcony that captures the garden outlook, and a modern fitted kitchen and refitted shower room reduce immediate upkeep requirements.
Practical details make the purchase straightforward: long lease (158 years remaining), chain free and communal off‑street parking. Annual maintenance is £1,350 covering ground rent, building insurance and garden upkeep, and council tax is described as affordable.
Buyers should note the apartment is electrically heated via storage heaters, which can be more costly than gas central heating, and the property is leasehold. The overall size is modest (about 612 sq ft), so it’s best suited to buyers seeking low‑maintenance, single‑level living rather than large‑family accommodation.
Located in Ponthir between Caerleon and Cwmbran, the village offers local amenities including shops, pubs and bus links. The setting is peaceful with very low local crime and no flood risk, but the wider area has higher deprivation levels which may affect long‑term resale dynamics.
