Description
The Property - 6 The Paddock is a wonderfully individual detached dormer bungalow tucked away in a quiet, leafy cul-de-sac in sought-after West Cross—just moments from the sea front and a gentle stroll from the heart of Mumbles village. This well-loved family home offers incredibly flexible living, with 4/5 bedrooms and three generous reception rooms, plus an excellent self-contained annexe. The house is set within beautifully cultivated gardens that wrap around three sides, enjoying a sunny, southerly aspect.
The main residence has been thoughtfully maintained over the years, with significant upgrades including a new roof and loft insulation in 2023 and replacement windows to the main house in 2022. In addition, solar panels offer energy efficiency and lower ongoing costs. The annexe—converted around a decade ago—adds valuable extra space for guests, multigenerational living, or even a home office/studio.
Inside, the layout is adaptable and welcoming. With a choice of generous reception rooms, including a large living room, dining room, and a bright garden room, there is scope to configure the home to suit a range of lifestyle needs. The bedrooms are well-proportioned and quietly situated, with plenty of natural light throughout the property.
Outside, the beautifully stocked gardens are a key feature—clearly the work of a passionate gardener. A combination of mature planting, colourful borders, a thriving vegetable plot, and multiple sun-trap seating areas create a peaceful and vibrant outdoor space. The greenhouse and summerhouse are perfect for year-round enjoyment and productivity, while the plot’s privacy and orientation make it feel like a hidden oasis.

The Paddock is a tucked-away address off West Cross Lane, offering both peace and privacy, with local amenities just moments away.
There’s a coastal footpath at the bottom of the hill that leads all the way around the Bay—ideal for walking or cycling into Mumbles or Swansea. Mumbles village, with its vibrant mix of restaurants, cafes, boutiques and wine bars, is just a 15-minute walk away.
For families, West Cross is in the catchment for Bishopston Comprehensive School and has several popular primary schools nearby. The property is well placed for commuting, with central Swansea just 4 miles away, and the M4 corridor reachable in under 20 minutes.
Outdoor lovers will appreciate nearby Clyne Gardens, the Gower AONB on the doorstep, and easy access to beaches like Langland, Caswell and Llangennith, all within a short drive.
