Location
Beautifully modernised and extended family home close to Kinross’ amenities.
Hartfell at 72 Muirs is a handsome Victorian family home dating back to the 1890s. The house is constructed with attractive sandstone, and has been fully renovated over the course of two phases, in 2015 and 2019. These extensive works have transformed the house, and have included full rewiring and renewed plumbing throughout, the installation of double glazing, as well as underfloor, loft and cavity wall insulation. As part of the 2019 works, a superb contemporary orangery with large skylight overhead was added to the rear of the house, which has significantly enhanced the accommodation by creating a naturally bright, and appealing open-plan living space overlooking the garden.
The kitchen / family room, which forms the heart of the house, is fully equipped with oak units and quartz worktops, and is fitted with solid oak flooring and a log burning stove. Integrated appliances include a Bosch American style fridge freezer, Bosch electric double oven and separate hob, dishwasher and wine cooler. The family room end of the room is centred around a log burning stove. To the side of the kitchen sits a useful utility room which is plumbed for laundry appliances, with a boiler cupboard, and with access to both the garage and out to the rear garden. Behind the kitchen is the stunning orangery, a spacious and family-friendly room set overlooking the beautiful rear gardens with sliding patio doors leading out. Across the main entrance hall from the kitchen is the front-facing sitting room. This has a vibrant outlook to the front over the Muirs through a bay window and has attractive ceiling cornicing. The ground floor also houses a useful guest bedroom with double doors leading out into the rear garden, and a wet room.
The first floor is approached by a staircase leading up from the main entrance hall. Off the landing is a principal bedroom with en suite shower room, two further bedrooms, and a study which could be used as a fifth / single bedroom. There is also a family bathroom which has both a bath, and a separate shower cubicle. The useful attic space above is accessed by a hatch.
To the front of the house, there is a spacious tarmac parking area, accessed via electric sliding gates set against the attractive stone wall. A front garden sits to the side, overlooked by a raised, paved /seating area. In addition to the parking area, is a single garage with hard-wearing Siberian larch cladding and an electric roller door. The large rear garden is an extremely desirable feature of Hartfell, thanks to its privacy, spaciousness and well-maintained setting. It is enclosed by a combination of stone walls and hedges. A flagstone patio sits at the top of the garden, wrapping around the orangery and providing a lovely west and south facing setting for barbecues and entertaining outdoors.
