SLICK SEASIDE LIVING

-

NESTLED within this popular seaside suburb west of Swansea is this slick, sleek and stylish home that is likely to instantly inspire your creative interior design ideas.

Step inside this three bedroom semi and the hard work the current owners have done to extend and modernise throughout the home is evident.

The contempora­ry interiors are not based on minimalist­ic and clinical, but rather warmth and a clever combinatio­n of the coolest of colours.

The lounge makes a bold and beautiful design statement, with the dark grey walls providing a perfectly contrastin­g backdrop for the zesty lime green sofa and wall art.

The panels of this striking deep colour are separated by a lighter contempora­ry grey, ensuring that the room does not feel overwhelme­d by the darker tone.

The furniture seating choice is classic and timeless from Ercol but given a modern twist with the choice of lime and grey upholstery. The iconic design continues with an oversized hinged floor lamp. The room is given warmth not only by the feature log burner but also by the honey-toned oak flooring.

The sitting room also has a feature log burner within the brick fireplace and the continuati­on of the smooth wooden flooring.

This room continues the contempora­ry grey theme but is accented by tones of blue, reflecting the calm and stormy seascapes pictured in the wall art.

In fact, the Mumbles seashore is only a five minute walk from this chic abode, so the references to the sea are totally relevant.

At the rear of the property the current owners have extended the house to create not only an open-plan kitchen/diner that most home buyers are looking for, but also a cloakroom and study.

This bonus reception room flows from the kitchen on to a higher floor level in order to provide access into the garden via a set of French doors.

The home’s sleek and chic design continues effortless­ly into the kitchen/ diner, with the dark grey wall providing a visual break between the two zoned areas as well as the perfect place to showcase the family’s eclectic collection of black and white artwork. The high gloss units virtually blend into the white walls, making the space feel luxurious and large.

The room includes a substantia­l island plus Neff integrated appliances.

Above the dining area is a generous sized roof window that lets light flood down onto the beautifull­y stripped pine dining table.

Upstairs, the impressive interior continues, with the landing sporting a seablue feature panel that cleverly highlights the soft curve of the wall.

The master bedroom features soft tones of blue and cream but is given a retro urban vibe with accents of juicy orange.

The panels of exposed wall provides a striking original feature to the room and showcases the beauty of these old multitoned bricks.

There are two remaining double bedrooms and a family bathroom on the first floor and a deck and patio courtyard in the rear garden.
