Introducing a truly exceptional 5 bedroom home, brought to the market for the first time in almost 50 years. Tucked away on the highly soughtafter Eden Avenue in Uplands, this remarkable residence offers not only generous living space but also a unique slice of Swansea’s architectural heritage.
Built in 1914 and designed by celebrated local architect Glendinning Moxham, the property showcases the timeless craftsmanship and thoughtful design that define his most iconic works, including the Glynn Vivian Art Gallery, Swansea YMCA, Olchfa House, and the Bristol Channel Yacht Club, soon to be honoured with a blue plaque. His influence is evident throughout this home, making it a rare opportunity for buyers seeking character, history, and creative potential.
A Home with Soul, Space, and Endless Potential
With five wellproportioned bedrooms and three beautifully distinct reception rooms, this property offers exceptional versatility—perfect for modern family living while still providing opportunities for dedicated workspaces, entertaining areas, or quiet retreats.
Grand Architectural Features
Soaring ceilings exceeding 3m (10ft) on the ground floor create an immediate sense of scale, light, and elegance.
Period details remain intact, offering a rich canvas for buyers keen to sympathetically restore, enhance, or modernise while preserving the home’s historic charm.
Detached garage with 2.66m (8ft 7ins) height—ideal for larger vehicles, storage, or even future workshop potential.
Generous mature gardens to the front and rear, including a brick-built garden store—perfect for relaxing, gardening, or family play.
Homes of this calibre, provenance, and architectural significance rarely come to market—especially after being in the same family for nearly half a century. This is your chance to secure a property that is not only a wonderful home, but also a part of Swansea’s cultural story.
