This Grade II listed detached Victorian house offers generous, characterful accommodation across two floors. The property includes three reception rooms, a fitted kitchen, four bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate wet room, plus a boarded and insulated loft with Velux windows — useful storage or occasional-use space.
Externally the house benefits from a large southerly rear garden laid out over seven terraces and an enclosed Indian sandstone paved patio, providing versatile outdoor areas and good sunlight. The setting in Lower Fishguard places the quay, harbour and local amenities within easy walking distance, with good transport links including a rail station and ferry terminal nearby.
Practical considerations are clear: the building uses oil central heating and retains single-glazed sash windows to the front; some windows are uPVC double glazed. As a Grade II listed building, any alterations will require listed-building consent and could limit renovation options and add costs. Council Tax is in Band F and is comparatively expensive.
This house will suit someone seeking period character and versatile accommodation — ideal for early retirees wanting proximity to the coast, buyers looking for a holiday-let or investors prepared to manage listed-building responsibilities. The property is habitable but will reward buyers who can budget for ongoing maintenance and sympathetic updates.
