Above the entrance you can look up to the two floors above before climbing the staircase to the first floor. This level houses the reception area and kitchen of the home, a wonderful hub for the property and ideal focal point for the owners and their guests. There are windows to three sides of this area along with double doors out to the balcony and rear courtyard garden. The stairs continue up to the top floor of the home which houses a bathroom and the master bedroom which enjoys magnificent views of the harbour and sea from the full height window in the end wall and the skylights in the roof.
Externally, the property enjoys a good-sized balcony and an enclosed rear courtyard which gives the property a private sun trap to enjoy throughout the day. The proximity to the harbour is a huge selling point for Llanfor with the chance to enjoy this beautiful waterway literally at your doorstep. For any buyer with an interest in sailing, boating, or who just enjoys being near water, this position takes some beating.
To the rear of Llanfor is a good-sized, free car park which can be accessed directly from the property. This takes you onto the scenic harbour side which is a wonderful area to wander and enjoy. The nearby Ship Inn provides refreshment with the amenities of Fishguard also within easy reach.

Beyond Lower Town you find the larger town of Fishguard which, especially when combined with neighbouring Goodwick, offers plenty of amenities and transport links as well as a good range of pubs, restaurants, and shops.
Llanfor combines its wonderful location with a property that is equally enchanting. The proximity of one of Pembrokeshire’s most picturesque harbours and the immediate access to the water is a unique feature that is a fantastic selling point for Llanfor.
