Full property Description
Kiln Bank is a handsome and historic village house set within generous gardens in the heart of Horton. With sea views across the bay and a remarkable collection of original stone barns to the rear, the property offers rare scale, character and future potential in one of Gower’s most cherished coastal villages.
The Property
Kiln Bank is a distinctive detached residence occupying a prominent position within the charming coastal village of Horton on the beautiful Gower Peninsula. Set within approximately 0.46 acres, the property combines a substantial family home with a fascinating collection of historic outbuildings that reflect the properties heritage.
Believed to have originally served as the coach station for the historic Coach and Horses route across Gower, the property retains a wonderful sense of history. To the rear sit three impressive stone barns extending to approximately 1,589sqft, which still contain the original stable bays and coachman’s office, providing a rare and characterful reminder of the building’s former life.
The main house itself extends to approximately 2624sqft and offers spacious accommodation arranged over three floors. The ground floor provides a series of elegant reception spaces including a sitting room, living room, and formal dining room, each enjoying excellent natural light and pleasant views across the gardens and surrounding village. A conservatory at the front creates a delightful spot from which to enjoy the outlook.
The kitchen sits to the rear of the house and is supported by a useful utility room, store and ground floor WC, offering practical day-to-day living space.
Upstairs the property offers six bedrooms together with two bathrooms, creating flexible accommodation suitable for family living or visiting guests. Many of the rooms enjoy wonderful sea views across Port Eynon Bay, giving the house a distinctive coastal character.
Outside, the gardens wrap around the property and enjoy a sunny southerly aspect. The grounds are mature and interesting, providing lawns, planted areas and generous outdoor space that complements the scale of the house. A detached garage and a number of additional outbuildings — some now dilapidated — further enhance the sense of space and opportunity on offer.
Kiln Bank is now ready for a new chapter. While the property has been well loved, it offers significant scope for modernisation and reconfiguration, allowing an incoming owner to create a truly exceptional coastal home. The combination of house, land and historic barns also presents intriguing development potential (subject to the necessary planning consents).
Rarely does a property of this scale, history and opportunity come to the market in such a prime village setting.
