House For Sale £425,000
Beautifully refurbished spacious Victorian villa.
Description
Redthorn is an attractive red sandstone, semi-detached Victorian villa that offers approximately 2551 sq ft of living accommodation over two floors under a slate roof. The home has been refurbished and extended by the current owners to create an excellent family home.
Upon entering the property you get a sense of grandeur from the large reception hall with the main staircase leading upstairs. The impressive sitting room is located off the hallway and features a focal fireplace, detailed cornicing and ceiling rose, with large sash and case windows providing an abundance of light. The large home office offers a versatile space that could easily become a guest bedroom or formal dining room and is also located to the front of the property with another fireplace and bay window.
To the rear, the property has been extended and incorporates the dining room with a woodburner and French doors, kitchen/breakfast room with a spiral staircase leading up to a study and a family room with bifold doors leading out to a raised deck and garden. The kitchen is well appointed with a selection of appliances, a range of low and high level storage options and a breakfast bar. The ground floor has a shower room and a study/reading area off the sitting room.
Upstairs, there are four well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from large proportions and a dual aspect with a large bay window providing views to the front. The family bathroom has a shower plus freestanding bath and is decorated in a sympathetic style. The first floor landing has a light and airy feel thanks to the cupola: a typical feature of properties from this period.
Outside, the gardens and grounds are extensive with plenty of mature trees, shrubs and plants with large expanses mainly laid to lawn. There is a sitting area with BBQ and a raised deck ideal for relaxing.
The grounds of Redthorn are entered between two sandstone gate piers with a long driveway leading to the house and providing plenty of parking.
Location
Redthorn at 124, Meadowfoot Road, in set amidst mature gardens with a wide range of shrubs and trees in a prime position within the attractive seaside town of West Kilbride.
West Kilbride and neighbouring Seamill are pretty villages located between Ardrossan and Largs on the Clyde coast. The views from both villages encompass the entire Clyde Estuary including the Sound of Bute, the Isle of Arran with Goat Fell and Holy Island. In a community-inspired development, West Kilbride has been designated Scotland's first Craft Town. In late Victorian times, Seamill became popular as a summer resort with The Hydropathic – now renowned as the Seamill Hydro Hotel – enabling visitors to enjoy restorative water cures. The Seamill Hydro Hotel is a recognised conference centre and North Ayrshire's leading venue for wedding receptions.
West Kilbride has a railway station with direct commuter services to Largs and Glasgow Central station, with a journey time of under an hour to the city. Local schooling is available in West Kilbride with additional secondary schooling in Largs and Ardrossan. Private schooling is available at Wellington School in Ayr which offers co-education from the ages of three to 18, or in Glasgow.
Ayrshire is famous worldwide for golf, with world class championship courses at Turnberry, Royal Troon and Prestwick, all of which have hosted the British Open. The West Kilbride Golf Club is a championship links course which was founded in 1893. The course is 6452 yards long and was designed by "Old" Tom Morris. Despite its name, it is located in Seamill.
There is excellent sailing in the Firth of Clyde with yachting marinas at Troon, Largs and Inverkip. There are also good opportunities for field sports including horse riding, shooting and fishing.
