4 bed end terrace house for sale

Promenade Terrace, Mumbles, Swansea SA3

An attractive double-fronted Victorian home in an exceptional seafront position, combining generous accommodation with private parking, a secluded garden and uninterrupted views across Swansea Bay.

The Property

Occupying an enviable position directly opposite the promenade, 1 Promenade Terrace is an attractive Victorian end-of-terrace home with a wonderful outlook across Swansea Bay. Arranged over three floors and extending to approximately 1,484 sqft, the property offers generous, versatile accommodation together with the considerable advantages of off-street parking and a pretty, private garden.

The double-fronted façade gives the house a distinctive presence, while its end position allows for additional light and a greater sense of privacy. Inside, the accommodation is presented in very good order, retaining the relaxed character of a period seaside home.

The principal living space is particularly appealing. Open-plan in arrangement, it combines comfortable sitting and dining areas with large windows framing the ever-changing view across the water. Painted panelling, timber flooring and a fireplace lend warmth and character, while the proportions allow the room to accommodate both everyday family life and larger gatherings with ease. There is a second reception room which is currently used as a fourth double bedroom on the ground floor.

The adjoining kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of traditionally styled cabinetry, timber work surfaces and a substantial range cooker. Its practical layout provides plenty of preparation and storage space, while a glazed door creates a natural connection with the garden.

Outside, the enclosed garden is an unexpectedly private space for such a central seafront setting. Mature planting and established boundaries create a sheltered atmosphere, with a paved terrace providing room for outdoor dining. Off-street parking is another significant advantage in this part of Mumbles.

Across the upper floors are three well-proportioned double bedrooms. The front rooms enjoy wonderful views across the promenade and Swansea Bay, with large windows drawing the coastal setting into the house. Exposed floorboards, simple decoration and period details give the bedrooms a calm and unforced character. The family bathroom is finished in a clean, neutral style.

Two further rooms occupy the converted loft space. Both are naturally lit by roof windows and provide valuable additional space for home working, hobbies, occasional guests or storage. These rooms are not included within the advertised bedroom count.

This is a genuinely uncommon opportunity: A substantial Victorian home directly on the waterfront, within a level walk of the centre of Mumbles and with private parking, a secluded garden and some of the finest views in the village.
