Externally, we also note that the subject premises benefits from a driveway, which eventually leads to the detached single garage along the left hand side elevation. Designated parking for approximately 2 vehicles is available over the driveway along with one further parking space within the detached garage. A small enclosed paved garden area is also available to the rear.
The subject premises is situated along a prominent main road position along the outskirts of Swansea city centre and furthermore within close proximity to the popular suburb of Sketty. Although the premises is located along a busy main thoroughfare, which is occupied by a small number of tertiary commercial uses, the immediate vicinity appears to be occupied predominantly by residential housing.
The subject premises is therefore ideally located for its intended use, which also has the potential for conversion to a range of alternative uses, subject to obtaining the necessary statutory consents.
