DIRECTIONS: Ogmore-By-Sea is situated at the mouth of the Ogmore River and can be approached from the east of the B4265 road at St Brides Major or from the north west from the B4265 in Ewenny taking the Ogmore Road which runs alongside the estuary of the river and passes Southerndown Golf Club on the left hand side.

Foxhollows is about halfway down the lane on the seaward side with a pair of imposing gates to the driveway access.
INTRODUCTION: A fine individual modern detached house built to take full advantage of its glorious location set just back form the foreshore and with wide ranging uninterrupted coastal views from Porthcawl to Tusker Rocks and across the Bristol Channel to the Somerset Coastline. In more recent times the property has been extended and the present owners have fitted and finished the house to a particularly high standard so that it now enjoys an exceptional standard of appointment. The accommodation is usefully flexible and is best summarised as five bedrooms, five bathrooms and five reception rooms. However the format is easily changed to suit individual requirements and the space does include a self-contained flat ideal for granny, teenager, staff etc. There are many fine rooms in this house but the main living room is worthy of particular mention offering over 400 square feet of space with a ceiling height of over 9' and having a 20' run of patio doors and full length windows leading out to and enjoying views over the lovely garden and coastal views beyond. The property enjoys the benefit of mains gas central heating and uPVC double glazing. The gardens are a delight with a pretty courtyard style garden to the front and a good size garden to the sea side with a range of terraces and sitting areas and an outdoor heated swimming pool. There is a detached double garage with remote control and ample parking. Ogmore-By-Sea is an attractive coastal village which is by-passed by the main coast road. Village facilities include post office/general store and it is a short drive to the local pub "The Pelican in her Piety" which is at the entrance to Southerndown Golf Club opposite the ruins of Ogmore Castle. There is easy access via the good local road network to the M4 and other main roads bringing Cardiff, Bridgend, Swansea, Llantrisant all within easy commuting distance.
Despite the length of the Heritage Coastline which forms the southerly border of the Vale of Glamorgan it is not easy to find a property with the quality of coastal location which Foxhollows enjoys. Viewing is thoroughly recommended.
