5 bed detached house for sale

Sketty Road, Swansea SA2

Lovingly maintained by just three owners since its construction in 1923, this substantial Edwardian home balances period elegance with contemporary comfort. Full of character, the house showcases preserved original features, including parquet flooring, authentic Edwardian glass, period fireplaces, bespoke internal doors, and a rare servant’s bell box.

Entering through the welcoming front entrance, you'll step into a bright, spacious hallway with striking Edwardian leaded-glass windows.
