Huge interest in just 15 homes being built above a stunning bay in one of Swansea's poshest areas

If you fancy living in a new home right on the doorstep of Langland Bay with the Wales Coast Path nearby, you'll need to join the queue of almost 300 people who have so far registered their interest for just 15 private homes being built in a site there.

The controversial housing estate scheme on Higher Lane, Langland, is being built on one of the last green fields on that Gower headland and was approved in 2020, despite opposition from some councillors concerned about protecting Gower as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Now, 15 of the 31 homes which will be built there have been listed by Swansea's Dawsons Estate Agents, with initial priority given to those who already live in nearby areas. For 16 weeks, those who already live, work or have an existing link to the Bishopston, Fairwood, Gower, Mayals, Newton, Oystermouth, Pennard, Penclawdd and West Cross areas will be given priority to purchase, providing it will be their main residence. And almost 300 have already registered their interest in the properties, being built by Edenstone Homes.
