Description

Situated in the desirable Derwen Fawr area of Swansea, this expansive four-bedroom detached house presents a promising renovation opportunity for those eager to craft their ideal family home. The property resides on a generous plot, allowing for potential reconfiguration or extension (subject to planning permissions), making it suitable for buyers looking to invest and enhance their living space in a tranquil yet accessible locale. Within proximity to Singleton Hospital, Swansea University Singleton Campus, and Singleton Park, this residence combines quiet residential charm with convenient access to essential amenities. The local educational institutions, including Bishop Gore School and Ofsted-rated Olchfa School, add further appeal. The ground floor comprises an inviting entrance hallway leading into a spacious lounge and dining area, alongside a separate kitchen and an additional versatile reception room that can be tailored for family use or entertaining guests. The upper level features four well-sized bedrooms; the primary bedroom benefits from eaves storage that could be transformed into a walk-in wardrobe or ensuite bathroom. Although the interior requires extensive modernization throughout, the solid structure provides an excellent canvas for personal design choices. Outside, the property boasts a driveway with ample off-road parking capabilities, a double garage, and a private rear garden adorned with mature planting. The sizable plot offers exciting landscaping prospects or possibilities for future extensions (pending necessary approvals). This property represents a distinctive chance to acquire a substantial dwelling in prime Swansea territory with the flexibility to develop it into a customized family haven.
