The chocolate box thatched cottage in one of Swansea's most popular parks that could be yours

Fancy living in one of Swansea's most popular parks? A rare opportunity has come up giving you the chance to do just that.

The grade two listed Lower Sketty Green Lodge in Swansea's beloved and historic Singleton Park could be yours for £359,950.

The unique and individual detached two bedroom thatched roof cottage was originally built in the 1830s as one of the gatehouses and boasts a wealth of history.

It is being marketed by Dawsons, which said it comprised of an entrance hallway, a bright and airy kitchen/breakfast room with full length south facing windows and double doors to the rear garden, a snug/ sitting area and a spiral staircase leading up to the second bedroom.

It also has a sizable lounge and a 'Jack and Jill' style modern shower room.

And outside, if being surrounded by acre upon acre of green space wasn't enough, the property includes a well maintained privately enclosed wrap around laid to lawn garden with wooden fence and stone wall boundaries, boasting an abundance of mature specimen shrubs, trees and bushes.

It has a south facing decked seating area to the rear and decorative stone areas to the front and sides.

Attractive features in the garden include a plastered and decorated summer house with full electricity and its own switch board, a large storage shed with electrics, external power points, security flood lighting, a smaller wooden storage shed and chicken run, a fully functioning pond with detachable cover and two fully functional Victorian lampposts.

Branch manager associate at Dawsons in Sketty, Alison Morris, said: "The property is unique, and was one of the park keepers' cottages.

"It is absolutely beautiful inside and there is nothing like it on the market, and there will be nothing like it on the market again."
