Property highlight: Three bedroom, two bathroom detached house enjoying 'upside-down' living.
Offering a fantastic home in Kildonan on the Isle of Arran, ideal for those looking to move the island full-time, purchase a second or holiday home, or for rental/holiday let investors, this three-bedroom, two-bathroom (plus a WC) detached house enjoys sought-after “upside-down” living, with the living accommodation on the upper level to take advantage of the home’s wonderful views, and the sleeping quarters on the lower level. The house has a wealth of living space and a fabulous terrace, as well as lovely mature gardens and private parking. The property was built by the current owners 26 years ago and this is its first time on the market – a unique opportunity to purchase a much-loved home in a quiet, private setting. A lower-level entrance porch welcomes you into the home and leads through to a hallway with storage, where a staircase rises to an upper-level landing (with additional storage and a WC), where the living accommodation is accessed. The living room and dining room conveniently neighbour each other and are connected via double doors which can be opened to create a sociable, flowing space, or closed for privacy. Both rooms also open onto the fabulous terrace which boasts breath-taking far-reaching views and is sure to be a popular gathering spot when entertaining. The living room and dining room both also feature characterful fireplaces, and the latter benefits from direct access to the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a range of attractive wall and base cabinets, spacious worktops, and integrated appliances comprising an oven, a microwave, a hob, an extractor fan, a fridge, a freezer, and a dishwasher. A walk-in pantry provides useful extra storage, whilst a utility cupboard off the hall supplements the kitchen, offering a discrete separate space for laundry appliances. The bedrooms are all well-proportioned and offer plenty of space for furniture, with the principal further benefiting from built-in wardrobes and a four-piece en-suite bathroom comprising a corner bath, a separate shower enclosure, and a WC-suite. The smallest bedroom is currently being utilised as a home office – perfect for those requiring a quiet space to work or study from home. A three-piece shower room completes the accommodation on offer. Oil-fired central heating and double glazing ensure year-round comfort and efficiency. Externally, the home is complemented by good-sized, mature gardens with lawned areas, leafy trees and shrubs, and a patio for outdoor seating. Private parking is provided by a timber-frame garage and a driveway. Area ‘Heron’s Cliff ’ has a wonderful position within Kildonan, with far-reaching southerly views, which overlook the islands of Pladda and Ailsa Craig.
