The 11th century farmhouse with stunning sea views and a path to the beach outside your front door

An eleventh century farmhouse with stunning views across one of Gower 's finest beaches is up for grabs.

The five-bedroom detached home in Llanmadoc is just a stone's throw from Whiteford Sands and offers views over the Loughor estuary.

Cwm Ivy Court Farm was once owned by the National Trust and still maintains a number of original features throughout.

As well as coming with impressive estuary and beach views, the property also neighbours the Whiteford nature reserve.

It could be yours for £725,000.

Entering the house on the ground floor you can expect to be greeted by a spacious reception room with exposed wooden beams and a feature log burner within the fireplace.

There's also a large sitting room with wooden flooring, a utility area, laundry room, cloakroom and a study.

You'll also find a modern looking kitchen, again with original beams displayed, which offers both countryside and sea views from its windows and there are steps that lead down to a pantry area.

Downstairs on the lower ground floor you'll find a bright lounge, with white walls and a high ceiling, and a staircase leading up to the open plan dining area above.

There's another study available too but it's not guaranteed that you'll be able to concentrate on work, as this too also overlooks the sea and nearby countryside.

There are five bedrooms spread out over two floors (Astleys Mumbles/Zoopla)

Four of the five bedrooms are on the first floor of the property, three of which have en-suite bathrooms.

The master bedroom comes with fitted wardrobes, while the second bedroom offers another chance to take advantage of the stunning scenery.

In the bathroom there's a free-standing bathtub, tiled flooring and everything else you'd expect to find.

Heading up again onto the second floor is where the fifth bedroom can be found with exposed beams and a roof window with views across the estuary.

At the front of the property there's a low maintenance graveled garden with a variety of flowers and shrubs and a driveway with enough room for two or three vehicles to park.

It even features an award winning garden at the rear of the property (Astleys Mumbles/Zoopla)

The rear garden has previously been named Swansea's best in bloom as it comprises a lawn which is home to a variety of trees, flowers and shrubs.

It is described by estate agent Astleys as a "unique" and "special home".

The property is on the market at £725,000, call Astleys Mumbles on 01792 925008.
