Dundonald Road, Kilmarnock, East Ayrshire, KA1

Commanding a prestigious location within one of the town's most coveted addresses, this impressive blonde sandstone detached villa was originally constructed circa 1865 and offers a level of accommodation that is rarely found in the local market. Meticulously maintained to an exceptionally high standard, this family home boasts a striking rear extension that overlooks the enclosed and private rear gardens. Retaining a wealth of original period features, it seamlessly blends with modern finishes, including a stylish kitchen and well-appointed bathroom suites, making it appealing to a wide range of buyers. Its proximity to the town centre, as well as the highly regarded Annanhill & Gargieston Primary Schools and Grange Academy, adds to its appeal.

 

Upon entering, you are greeted by a spacious and inviting hallway that provides access to the elegant front-facing lounge, featuring exquisite ceiling detailing with ornate cornicing and a feature fireplace at the focal point. The formal dining room at the rear offers a pleasant view of the garden and could easily be utilised as an additional bedroom if required, while across the hall, you'll find the generously sized dining kitchen, complete with a range of wall and floor mounted units and an island together with integrated appliances. Additionally, there is another versatile public room at the front, currently serving as a family/sitting room.

 

A rear hallway leads to a stunning downstairs shower room which was recently refitted to a high specification boasting a generously proportioned walk-in shower cubicle. Off the back of the kitchen is a further public room within the extended portion of the property providing a breathtaking dining room on a split level overlooking the rear garden. This stunning room exudes brightness and spaciousness, thanks to the French doors opening onto an attractive sandstone patio—an ideal spot for "al fresco" dining during the warmer months. The room also features exposed sandstone, adding perfectly to the all round charm and perfectly in keeping with the style of property. A sweeping staircase from the hallway takes you to the upper level, which houses four sizable double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.

 

One of the standout features of this remarkable family home is its extensive gardens, which include a large lawn area and an area of patio and decking, perfectly placed to take advantage of the all day long sunshine which fills various parts of the garden, all bordered by a range of seasonal shrubs and fruit trees.  In addition to the extensive driveway parking at the front, there is a side gated entrance off of Seaford Street which gives you vehicle access to the rear and the large garage.

 

Situated on Dundonald Road, opposite the entrance to the leafy Howard Park, the property is a short stroll from the popular Park Hotel and Conference Centre, home to the highly regarded Blues & Pavilion Restaurants. At the foot of Dundonald Road lies the bustling John Finnie Street, with its excellent selection of bars, restaurants, shops, banks, and other amenities. Nearby Bank Street boasts an array of boutique shops and cafes, while both the bus and train stations provide excellent transportation links, including a direct route to Glasgow City Centre. For commuters, the recently upgraded M77 motorway offers convenient access to Glasgow in the north and Ayr in the south.
