Exceptional detached family home with upgraded interior
Enterkin is a home of considerable charm and stature that has recently been fully renovated and extended. The highest quality materials and best possible craftsmanship was sought with no expense being spared. The property occupies a substantial and private corner plot on the desirable Glencairn Road and is encircled by a large stone wall and accessed via electric gates. The garden and grounds are just under an acre in size and are among the best in the area with the property's privacy enhanced by the many prominent deciduous trees within the walled boundaries.
The generously proportioned accommodation extends to a gross internal floor area of about 5705 sq. ft. over three floors including the garage, garden room and store. The house is constructed of stone under a slate roof offering a highly functional, flexible and modern layout. Considerable care has been taken in the choice of décor and kitchen and bathroom fittings, along with various features including underfloor heating throughout, Lutron lights, Sonos sound system, CCTV system and electric blinds to name a few.
The adaptable ground floor accommodation begins with an entrance vestibule leading into an impressive yet welcoming hallway with beautiful wall panelling with hidden wine cellar and open staircase leading up. The sitting room with an attractive focal fireplace opens through to a conservatory which is perfectly positioned to enjoy the garden inside or outside via an external door which leads out to a patio. There is a versatile playroom, cloakroom, utility room and WC. The open plan kitchen, dining room and family room offers incredible living space with bi-fold doors that open out onto a raised outdoor terrace. The hand-made kitchen benefits from deep Italian marble worktops, plenty of high and low level cabinetry and integrated hi-spec appliances. A large corner bay window offers space for additional dining with views over the garden.
Upstairs, the bright and spacious first floor landing is lit by a stunning stained glass window and gives access to five well-proportioned bedrooms. Four bedrooms benefit from impeccably and sympathetically designed en suite shower and bathrooms. The principal suite is particularly special due to the spacious layout, walk-in dressing room and en suite bathroom with freestanding bath, separate shower and twin wash basins, all finished in white and grey Italian marble. A family bathroom with separate shower completes the first floor accommodation.
At the end of the first floor hallway, a second staircase leads up to a well-equipped gym and a generously-sized games and cinema room with a WC off, perfect for entertaining or relaxing.
The garden room is accessed externally and the spacious double garage has an internal door from the main hallway. The garage is finished with Venetian plaster and a black tiled floor and offers extra storage, all easily accessible via the large remote-controlled external door.
Outside, the garden and grounds are beautifully landscaped and planted with a range of mature trees and shrubs with large portions mainly laid to lawn. The lower garden benefits from a children's play area whilst the upper garden includes an expansive terrace off the kitchen and dining room. Walkways weave through copiously planted beds and create an extremely tranquil space.
