The Property - Set in one of Mumbles’ most treasured residential pockets, 39 Overland Road is a gorgeous Victorian terrace offering character, charm and an enviable coastal lifestyle. Arranged over four floors and extending to approximately 1,221sqft, the house combines period warmth with practical living space, spectacular views and the rare advantage of off-street parking to the rear.

The ground floor is centred around a beautiful front-to-rear living/dining room; a generous, sociable space with timber flooring, a log burner and a striking bay window to the rear which frames superb views across Swansea Bay and Oystermouth Castle. It is a room with real atmosphere; bright, comfortable and well suited to both everyday living and relaxed entertaining. A separate WC sits off the hallway and offers potential, subject to requirements, to be adapted into a shower room.

On the lower ground floor, the kitchen/breakfast room sits to the rear. It is a welcoming, practical space with painted cabinetry, timber worktops and room to gather around the central island. To the front of this level is a useful additional room, currently used as a utility, which gives the house valuable flexibility for storage, laundry or hobby space. To the rear there is an attractive and spacious bathroom with separate bath and shower cubicle - perfectly placed for sandy feet coming in from the garden entrance.

The first floor provides two bedrooms, while the second floor offers a generous loft room. This space is currently used as a bedroom and enjoys excellent natural light; as the conversion predates current building regulation standards, it is formally described as a loft room rather than a third bedroom.

Externally, the rear garden is a delightful and easily managed courtyard, planted with mature greenery and designed for relaxed sitting out in the sunshine. It feels private and atmospheric, with glimpses towards the bay beyond the rooftops. Steps lead down to a rear driveway providing off-street parking belonging to the house; a particularly valuable feature in this part of Mumbles.
