Set on a large private plot on the edge of Llanrhidian, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers spacious single-storey living and far-reaching estuary views. The accommodation includes a generous lounge with French doors to the garden, a fitted kitchen/diner, utility room, three well-proportioned bedrooms (master with ensuite) and a family bathroom. An integral garage and private driveway provide parking and storage. The property is freehold and benefits from oil-fired central heating and mature, south-facing gardens that enjoy privacy and sunshine.
The house sits in a quiet hamlet within the Gower AONB, close to a well-regarded primary school and village amenities, with Swansea accessible for broader services. Planning permission (Ref: 2007/0442) is already approved to convert the garage into an additional bedroom with ensuite or a self-contained annex, presenting useful flexibility for a growing family, guest accommodation or rental income.
Practical considerations: the bungalow dates from the late 20th century and requires modernization in parts—cosmetic and updating works are needed to bring interiors up to contemporary standards. Heating runs on oil, which can be more expensive and requires delivery and storage. Broadband speeds in the area are very slow and the locality is recorded as having high deprivation indicators; council tax is described as expensive. These factors may influence running costs and connectivity for homeworking.
Overall, the house will suit buyers seeking a peaceful, single-storey home with generous outdoor space and scope to add value through the approved garage conversion and updating. It combines countryside and estuary views with easy access to village life, but buyers should budget for improvements and be aware of limited digital connectivity and higher running costs.
