4 bed detached house for sale

Highpool Lane, Swansea SA3

Four double bedrooms, a kitchen made for gathering and a south-facing garden for enjoying long into the evenings.

An inviting family home on one of Newton’s popular lanes, with four genuine double bedrooms and plenty of room to spread out. The garden is made for long lunches outside, and the separate garden room gives you somewhere to close the door on work at the end of the day.

The Property

Set back from the popular Highpool Lane in Newton, behind a generous gravel frontage, this detached four-bedroom home has an attractive outlook to both front and rear. The house extends to approximately 1,982 sqft, with a detached home office and garden room providing a further 245sqft. Contemporary finishes sit comfortably alongside details such as the curved front bay and herringbone flooring.

The kitchen, dining and family space is the heart of the house. A breakfast bar gives the kitchen a natural gathering point, while the dining area and adjoining sitting area look out over the garden. Full-height glazing brings in the light and three patio doors open directly onto the terrace, making it easy to take lunch outside or keep an eye on children on the lawn. At the front, a separate reception room offers somewhere quieter to sit, with glazed double doors opening onto a sheltered veranda.

There are four double bedrooms, three upstairs and one on the ground floor. The ground-floor bedroom has a broad bay window and a shower room just across the hall, a practical arrangement for guests. Upstairs, the generous principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes, rooflights, a Juliet balcony and an en-suite shower room. The other two upstairs bedrooms overlook the garden, and the family bathroom has both a bath and a separate shower.

The south-facing rear garden is a particular draw. A broad paved terrace runs across the back of the house, with plenty of room for a dining table and chairs. Beyond it, a path follows the lawn past established planting to the detached garden room. With power, lighting and its own veranda, it makes an appealing home office or studio with a little separation from the house. The wide gravel frontage provides ample off-road parking.

Mumbles village is around a mile away for everyday shopping, independent shops, cafés and restaurants. Oystermouth Castle and the seafront promenade are close to the village centre.

Langland Bay is roughly a mile away, with its beach huts, seafront tennis courts and places to eat by the water. Caswell Bay is around a mile and a half away and is a favourite for family beach days and surfing. The coast path between the two is a lovely walk in its own right, passing Langland Bay Golf Club along the way. Further west, the lanes through Bishopston lead into the Gower Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with its woodland walks, clifftop paths and beaches.
