Description
Sea View is a three-storey building with a basement and a three-window facade, constructed from colourwashed rubble and facing east. The building has undergone later alterations to its glazing and features a slate roof with overhanging eaves and brick chimney stacks at both ends. The second floor has modern windows, while the first floor includes four-pane sash windows flanking a central tripartite window with an arched head. The ground floor features tripartite windows, with a central arched entrance accessed by a raised walkway, which includes a six-panel door and a four-pane fanlight. There is a dug-out basement as well.
The right end of the building has a rubble finish with one recessed window, and there is a lean-to structure on the left end. Sea View was once a school, and it is notable that the poet Dylan Thomas moved here in July 1938 from a cottage in Gosport Street.
