Sea and coastal views from upper floors
Substantial Tudor‑Revival semi detached on Higher Lane, offering genuine renovation potential with panoramic sea views. The house extends to about 2,243 sq ft across multiple floors, with five bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous, characterful reception rooms — ideal for a growing family looking to create a bespoke coastal home or an investor seeking value-add refurbishment.
The plot is a strong asset: large mature gardens, a double garage plus additional off‑road parking and easy pedestrian access to nearby beaches and Mumbles village. Practical benefits include freehold tenure, very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and proximity to local amenities, cafes, transport links and schools.
Important negatives are straightforward. The property needs renovation throughout (EPC rating E) and will require investment to modernise services and finishes. Council tax is very expensive. While the immediate neighbourhood is described as affluent, wider area data indicate pockets of significant deprivation — buyers should check local services and council provisions.
This is a clear opportunity for someone who can embrace a project: retain the period character, improve energy performance and capitalise on strong location and sea views. For families it offers space and access to coastal lifestyle; for investors it offers scope to enhance value through careful refurbishment.
