SWANSEA - SINGLETON HOTEL

Swansea is the Principality’s Second City, it has a vibrant city centre and economy. It being the largest conurbation in West Wales it serves a much wider community and despite having a population of over 250,000, but has an infrastructure and economy greater than other cities of this size, due to its strategic importance. It is also well known for its seafront which is possibly closer to any city centre of this size anywhere in the UK.

The Singleton is an attractive Victorian property holding a prominent corner site just on the edge of the city centre opposite the Grand Theatre. It is a substantial property of in excess of 6,000 square feet and offers period ground floor trading area, seven en suite letting bedrooms and three bedroom owners flat. Due to its size and central position it offers a purchaser a number of uses (possibly a split use) subject to planning permission.
