Introduction:

A ‘Retirement Living plus’ development designed for independent living for those aged over 70 years, Llys Isan offers the peace-of-mind provided by the day-to-day support of our 24/7 estate management team who oversee the smooth running of the development. Homeowners can also benefit from extensive domestic and care packages being available to suit individual needs and budgets. One hour of domestic assistance per week is already included in the service charge.
The development enjoys fantastic communal facilities including a beautiful lounge for homeowners, bistro with a fantastic, varied and inexpensive menu, laundry room and scooter store. There is also a wellness centre with an on site hairdresser who usually comes weekly, and landscaped gardens. The development also has the popular guest suite widely used by visiting family and friends for which a small charge per night applies.

Constructed in mid 2018 by multi-award winning retirement housebuilder McCarthy Stone, Llys Isan is one our most sought-after developments and it is not difficult to understand why - a convenient location with the local village centre just under a quarter of a mile level walk where you will find a Post Office, a Co-operative supermarket, church, coffee shops, banks, a hair salon, nail bar, pubs, cafes and newsagents. The village also has a doctor’s surgery, a pharmacy, a dentist, and plenty of other local amenities. Llanishen Park is a lovely green space just a ten minute stroll from the complex.
Llanishen is a pleasant and peaceful suburb north of Cardiff with enviable connections to the city centre and to the M4 motorway. The local leisure centre is adjacent to the development offering swimming, badminton and a host of other activities.
There are plenty of regular activities to choose from within Llys Isan too, these include; fitness classes, coffee mornings, games and quiz nights to name but a few and, whilst there is something for everyone, there is certainly no obligation to participate and home owners ‘dip in and out’ of activities as they wish.
