The property

McEwan Fraser is delighted to present this five-bedroom detached house that offers excellent living space over two floors. Built in the 1950s by a local architect, the property has been heavily influenced by the art deco styling of the 1920s. It is a unique house and must be seen to be both understood and appreciated. Internally, there is generous living space with up to five bedrooms, two public rooms, kitchen, utility and three bathrooms over two floors. The is also off-street parking, a detached garage and a beautiful mature garden. However, the jewel in the crown is the bright dual aspect first-floor drawing room which enjoys access to a huge balcony with panoramic views over the surrounding area. Internally and externally, the property has been well maintained and is presented in good order. That said, there is plenty of scope for an incoming purchaser to upgrade and modernise the property to individual taste. Ground floor accommodation is focused towards a large dual aspect living room which is flooded with natural light from a large bay window. This is a very flexible space with plenty of scope for a variety of different furniture configurations. The kitchen is immediately adjacent to the living room and accessed from a door on the rear wall. There is excellent long term potential for the two rooms to be combined into an outstanding kitchen/dining/living room. The kitchen itself enjoys a good range of base and wall mounted units that offer excellent prep and storage space. The kitchen also has access to an attached utility room. The remainder of the ground floor comprises three generous bedrooms, two of which are currently used as studies, a separate WC and a large shower room with a white suite and a built-in double shower. Climbing the stairs, a half landing gives access to the family bathroom which is well proportioned and includes a three-piece suite. The first-floor landing gives access to the master bedroom, a further double bedroom and the drawing-room. The dual aspect master bedroom is a bright and spacious double bedroom with an attached en-suite bathroom and plenty of space for a full suite of bedroom furniture. Both the master bedroom and the adjacent double bedroom overlook the balcony to the front of the property. The accommodation is completed by the drawing-room and attached balcony. This is an exceptional property and early viewing is highly recommended.
