Outstanding detached family home with fantastic coastal views, garden and swimming pool.
Knowlton is an impressive, five bedroom detached family home with incredible views over the Old Racecourse, Bellisle Golf Course and out towards the Isle of Arran and Ailsa Craig.
Constructed in 1926 of brick with a rendered exterior under a red rosemary clay tiled roof, the house offers approximately 6,175 square feet of living accommodation split over two levels including a separate, recently constructed double garage with power door and electric car charging point.
Enclosed by a stone wall and accessed via electric wrought iron gates, the house is approached via a grey gravel driveway and surrounded by incredible mature landscaped gardens with outdoor heated swimming pool, summer house and jacuzzi with pergola.
Custom double doors lead into the home and an imposing entrance hallway with focal fireplace. Archways lead through to the generous dining room with a stunning entertainment room off. This space is beautifully decorated and designed with dark panelling, lighting and soft furnishings, while the custom-built bar, fitted wine cooler and pool table make this the perfect sociable space. The lounge benefits from views over the front garden via the attractive bay window and feature fireplace.
The fabulous open plan family room and kitchen is a wonderful bright space thanks to the bi-fold doors that look out to the south facing terrace and the cupola above the sitting area, all of which flood the room with natural light. The sitting area benefits from built in storage, wine cooler and a wood burning stove.
The superb bespoke kitchen has high quality fixtures and fittings, quartz worktops, central island unit with sink and breakfast bar, wall and floor mounted cabinets and a range of high specification appliances including a built in coffee machine, oven, microwave and gas hob. Off the kitchen is the well equipped utility room that leads through to the gym to one side and a stylish WC and study on the other side.
Upstairs there are five well-proportioned bedrooms. Three have en suite bathrooms and all are beautifully finished with views over the front and rear gardens. The principal suite has access to a south facing balcony with views over the old racecourse, luxurious dressing room, and a sleek, contemporary en suite shower room with a walk-in shower. The family bathroom with freestanding bath and shower completes the accommodation.
Externally, the gardens are breathtaking with a substantial manicured lawn to the front and side of the property. The rear garden has been professionally landscaped and comprises an upper terrace with sitting area around a stone built fireplace. Steps lead down to the swimming pool, summer house with changing facilities and pergola with jacuzzi. The south facing aspect provides the ideal place to relax or entertain.
