Driftwood, 18, Plunch Lane, Swansea, SA3 4JE

A charming seaside home, full of character, with the water in view and potential in abundance.

Set close to the shoreline at Limeslade, Driftwood is a characterful detached bungalow with three double bedrooms, generous living space and an established terraced garden.

Sea views, a sunny conservatory and a distinctive coastal feel make this an exciting home in a particularly special setting.

The Property With its pale blue exterior, twin bay windows and gently nautical detailing, Driftwood has an immediate charm.

The house has been comfortably lived in and is full of personality, while also offering considerable scope for a new owner to update and refine the interiors over time.

The accommodation extends to approximately 1,176sqft and is arranged entirely on one level. At its heart is an impressive living room, measuring approximately 25ft in length.

It is a wonderfully generous space, with a broad bay window, a fireplace with stove and glazed doors opening into the conservatory. The conservatory is a lovely addition to the house.

Filled with natural light and looking towards the sea, it provides ample room for dining and informal seating, while a door opens directly onto the front deck.

Together, these spaces create an appealing place to sit and enjoy the coastal outlook.

The kitchen is also well proportioned, with a central island, extensive storage and direct access to the rear garden.

There are three comfortable double bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room, alongside a separate main shower room.

Outside, the front deck makes the most of the sea view and sits beside a private driveway.

The rear garden is one of the property’s most individual features: A substantial terraced garden rising behind the house, with mature subtropical planting, stone-paved seating areas, a greenhouse, garden stores and several secluded corners.

Its established character and wooded backdrop give it a wonderfully informal coastal atmosphere. Driftwood is a well loved and lived in home, and therein lies much of its appeal.

It offers space, character and a memorable position, together with the opportunity to create something very special beside the sea.
