Description
NO ONWARD CHAIN – Exciting Investment / Development Opportunity
An excellent chance to acquire a derelict stone building and plot with superb roadside frontage in the heart of town.
Formerly part of a car garage business, the site benefits from services on hand and offers significant scope for redevelopment or commercial use, subject to the necessary consents. Its prominent roadside position ensures excellent visibility and accessibility, making it highly attractive for a wide range of ventures.
The site could lend itself to a variety of uses, including business premises or storage facilities, and also presents potential for redevelopment into residential or mixed-use purposes. There is even the possibility of creating a home in this central location, subject to planning consent.
Rarely do opportunities of this nature, in such a prime position, come to the market. Early enquiries are strongly advised.
*FOR SALE VIA AUCTION*
The village of Pencader is situated 10.2 miles north of Carmarthen and is only 30 mins drive to the coast. The village benefits from village shops, cafe, pubs and a primary school. The towns of Llandysul, Llanybydder and Lampeter are also in easy reach. The nearby County town of Carmarthen lays claim to being the oldest town in Wales, boasting a strong Roman heritage dating back to AD c75. Situated on the River Towy eight miles north of its mouth at Carmarthen Bay, the town is the location of the headquarters of Dyfed Powys Police, the Carmarthen Campus of The University of Wales, Trinity Saint David and The West Wales General Hospital. The town is also served by direct intercity trains from West Wales to London.
