1 Alloway Park

Built in the 1880s, the semi-detached villa has the generous proportions of its era, with high ceilings, ornate plasterwork, wood panelling, deep skirtings and a great deal of original period detail. It has been sympathetically remodelled and extended, so that the period character now runs alongside a considered modern layout arranged for family life. The accommodation extends to almost 3,800 square feet over two levels, with a flexibility that will suit a wide range of buyers. A gated entrance opens to a private driveway with ample parking. The quality of the stonework and the craftsmanship of the build are evident on approach. An entrance vestibule leads into a welcoming hallway, off which sit a study and a cloakroom with WC. The bay-windowed lounge runs to almost twenty-one feet, looks out across the fields opposite and is centred on a feature fireplace with an open fire. A formal dining room sits across the hallway, also taking in the bay to the front. Beyond these, the hallway gives on to a snug, a second WC, and a bespoke kitchen of some twenty feet six, with a central island and integrated Siemens appliances. This part of the house, formed in the extension, offers real scope for multi-generational living. A utility room and a sitting room of twenty-three feet lie beyond, the latter opening through a bright conservatory to the rear gardens. A rear hall leads to a ground floor bedroom with its own en suite. On the first floor, the principal suite extends to over twenty-four feet, light and generously proportioned, with a walk-in wardrobe and a substantial en-suite bathroom. Three further spacious bedrooms complete the floor, two of them with en-suite facilities. The enclosed walled gardens are among the best features of the house, with mature lawns, established seating areas and a large detached garage, giving both privacy and room to use the grounds in different ways. The property also holds a share in the ownership of the field directly in front, which keeps the open outlook secure. EER - E
