About this property
9 Ffordd Donaldson is a delightful house in Swansea, offering a welcoming base for friends and families seeking a mix of city convenience and natural beauty. With the River Tawe nearby and the Gower National Landscape within easy reach, this property is ideal for families and friends who love scenic walks and coastal adventures. After pulling into the designated space or finding a spot along the roadside, you’ll step through the gate and into a neat gravelled courtyard that sets a welcoming tone. Push open the door and enter the carpeted hallway, a soft landing after your journey, before moving towards the heart of the home. The sitting room immediately catches the eye with its bold blue feature wall and stylish artwork, creating a vibrant backdrop for relaxation. Here, you can sink into the sofa or one of the two armchairs, flick on the mounted TV for a family film night, or let the gentle glow of the electric fire warm the space as you unwind with a good book. It’s a room designed for gathering, laughter, and those quiet moments after a day of exploring. Continue through to the kitchen, where everything you need for a self-catered stay is thoughtfully arranged. Picture yourself preparing a hearty breakfast using the electric oven and gas hob, with the microwave ready for quick bites and the fridge/freezer stocked for the week ahead. A kettle and toaster stand by for easy mornings, while the washing machine ensures practicality for longer stays. The layout invites conversation, so you can chat while cooking and plan tomorrow’s adventures. On the ground floor, a double bedroom offers flexibility for guests who prefer to avoid stairs, complemented by a cloakroom for added convenience. Climb the staircase to discover two further doubles, one boasting an en-suite walk-in shower where you can refresh after a day by the coast. The main bathroom tempts you to indulge in a long soak in the bath or opt for a brisk shower before heading out.
Step outside to the enclosed rear garden, a tranquil space with a patio and decking where you can savour an alfresco meal or a glass of wine as dusk settles. With outdoor furniture provided, it’s perfect for enjoying the fresh air while the dogs stretch their legs in safety. When you’re ready to explore, a local shop is just a short stroll away for essentials, and a welcoming pub lies within easy reach for hearty fare. The River Tawe flows nearby, offering peaceful waterside walks, while the breathtaking Gower National Landscape promises sweeping beaches and coastal paths for walkers and nature lovers alike. Further afield, immerse yourself in the charm of Mumbles, where you can wander along the Victorian pier, sample fresh seafood at a waterfront restaurant, and browse independent boutiques for unique finds. Head to Cardiff for a vibrant day out, exploring the historic castle, indulging in retail therapy at St David’s shopping centre, and catching live performances at the Wales Millennium Centre. For a taste of industrial heritage, visit Port Talbot, where you can hike scenic trails in Margam Country Park, marvel at the grand Margam Castle, and enjoy family-friendly wildlife encounters at the park’s farm trail.
