Parc Y Fron

Parc Y Fron is a substantial new build housing development by Persimmon Homes, located off Ffordd Pendre, approximately one mile from the historic market town of Carmarthen, Carmarthenshire (SA31 3FY). The site, which is set on the edge of the town adjacent to the Tawalan Brook, forms part of a strategic development that includes a variety of property options.

Development Overview Parc Y Fron offers a collection of modern 2, 3, and 4-bedroom new houses. The current pricing structure for available plots ranges from approximately £250,000 to £399,995. A subsequent phase on the wider site will see the introduction of high-end executive properties marketed under the Persimmon sister brand, Charles Church, providing a balanced housing mix for the local area.

Property Details Available new build homes include 3-bedroom houses with prices starting from £250,000 and 4-bedroom houses with prices starting from £370,000. Specific 2-bedroom properties are anticipated to be released soon. A significant feature of the newly approved phase of the development is its commitment to sustainability; these homes are designed to be 'zero-carbon ready' and will be built as a no-gas site. This involves the strategic installation of air source heat pumps and solar panels to promote energy efficiency and reduce running costs for homeowners. Properties are finished as a blank canvas, offering buyers the opportunity to personalise interiors through Persimmon's options process, including choices for fixtures, fittings, and flooring, once a plot has been reserved.

Location and Amenities Carmarthen town centre is located approximately a mile from the development, providing access to a wide range of facilities. Retail options include high-street shops and the St Catherine’s Walk Shopping Centre. For groceries, a Tesco Extra is reachable within a 6-minute drive. The town also boasts an 800-year-old indoor market, a cinema, a theatre, and various dining and pub options. For healthcare, Glangwili General Hospital is situated nearby, alongside Carmarthen Leisure Centre. The development is zoned for local schools, with Abergwili Primary School serving the wider area.

Transport Links and Connectivity Parc Y Fron offers excellent regional connectivity. Carmarthen Train Station is a key asset, providing direct train services to Swansea in under an hour, with further links across the region, including services run by Transport for Wales and Great Western Railway. The location benefits from a direct connection to the A48 dual carriageway, which links to the M4 motorway at Pont Abraham, facilitating road travel to major hubs like Swansea, Cardiff, and beyond. The A40 also runs east-west across the county, connecting to destinations like Llandovery and Whitland.
