Very unique opportunity to acquire this one of a kind ground floor apartment located within the 1800's Park Beck Estate Hospital which was then later converted into luxury apartments in the 1990's. This jaw dropping apartment benefits from many of its original features from when the eminent architect Henry Woodyer had re-designed it and passed it down amongst many prestigious families including which was the novelist, businesswoman and social benefactor Amy Dillwyn, who was also born in this esteemed building. The complete history behind this property is astonishing and to witness some of the memorabilia behind the remaining features is remarkable.

The brief layout consists of hallway, study, large welcoming inner hallway, breathtaking lounge with 14ft high ceilings, kitchen/diner, two double bedrooms with en-suites & cloakroom. The many benefits to this lovely home are large church style double glazed windows, gas central heating, astonishing well maintained original features throughout, ample built in storage facilities, personal basement facility, delightful and well kept communal gardens and allocated parking space along with additional visitors parking. It offers easy access to local amenities at Sketty Cross, Uplands, Swansea City Centre, Singleton Hospital, Swansea University and merely a short walk away from Singleton Park. Viewing is highly recommended to appreciate this wonderful property's generous layout, magnificent historical features and ideal location.
