Summary - 4 BALACLAVA ROAD GLAIS SWANSEA SA7 9HH
2 bed 1 bath Terraced
Period cottage with parking, garden and adaptable attic space — ideal for first‑time buyers.
Freehold two-bedroom terraced cottage, 1,109 sq ft
Set in the village of Glais, this two-bedroom terraced cottage blends original character with practical living space across 1,109 sq ft. The large lounge/dining room with exposed stone and beamed ceilings creates a welcoming main living area, while a sunroom provides pleasant garden outlooks and direct outdoor access. Off-street parking for two cars is a rare convenience for a period home.
The first floor houses two double bedrooms, one with an en-suite cloakroom, plus a versatile attic room accessed from the landing — currently used as guest space and a home office. A ground-floor three-piece bathroom serves the principal accommodation. The freehold tenure, mains gas central heating and double glazing (installed before 2002) add everyday practicality.
Buyers should note a few practical considerations: the property’s stone walls are assumed uninsulated, and the older double glazing and pre-1900 construction mean further insulation or energy-efficiency improvements may be needed. Broadband speeds are slow locally, and the plot and courtyard garden are modest—great for low-maintenance outdoor living but limited for larger gardening projects.
Overall this cottage will suit first-time buyers or those downsizing who value period character, useful parking and flexible space. It offers scope to modernise heating and insulation for long-term comfort and running-cost savings, while retaining the cottage’s appealing features and village location.
