About this property

  • Eversley, 25 Gallowhill Road, sits in a quiet residential setting a short distance from the amenities of Kinross, including the High School (about 0.3 miles). The house originally dates back to the 1920s but was extended in the 1980s. It has a private driveway and pedestrian path leading up from the public road, and is surrounded by beautiful mature gardens.

    The ground floor accommodation is approached by an entrance porch to the southwest, or a back door by the parking area which leads directly into the kitchen. The kitchen overlooks the rear garden and is fitted with a range of AEG appliances including an induction hob, microwave and electric oven, as well as a Samsung American style fridge freezer. The main hall connects the kitchen to the front porch, and off here sit the two principal reception rooms, cloakroom with WC, and a ground floor guest bedroom which could be a home office or playroom if preferred. The drawing room has a large bay window overlooking the front garden and an open fireplace. The adjacent sitting / dining room has a gas fireplace and a study area set into the circular turret in the corner of the room, with lovely views over the front garden and down the driveway.

    The first floor has three further double bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a large southwest facing bay window overlooking the front of the house and an en suite bathroom. This contains a freestanding bath, separate shower cubicle and has a useful store room beyond. Bedroom 2 benefits from the corner turret's lovely views, and bedroom 3 has a fitted wardrobe. Also off the landing is a family bathroom and linen cupboard which houses the hot water tank. There is a spacious study on the top floor, which could also be a fifth bedroom. This has timber panelled walls and ceiling, a store cupboard and two Velux windows.

    A double garage sits off the tarmac driveway which sweeps up from Gallowhill Road to a parking area to the side of the house. The principal garden lies to the rear of the house, where a central lawned area is surrounded by mature conifers and beech trees providing it with shelter and privacy. The front garden has more mature trees including oak, conifers, cherry and rhododendrons. There are two garden stores and a log store set to the side of the double garage.
