General Description
Originally built in 1823 with an extension added in approximately 1870, Dunholm is a beautifully presented four-bedroom stone-built home offering a tasteful interior design, generously proportioned accommodation and idyllic gardens. From the west-facing gated garden and whitewashed facade, the welcoming hallway with its elegant décor sets the scene for the property. To your left, the magnificent triple-aspect living room exudes a timeless sophistication perfect for family life, relaxation, and entertaining with tasteful wall finishes, plush carpeting, working shutters, and an original cast iron fireplace nestled under an oak mantle. The west-facing kitchen across the hallway boasts a delightful garden outlook through twin sash and case windows and achieves a rustic ambience thanks to the inclusion of birch wall and floor cabinetry, worktops, and a tiled splashback. Integrated appliances include an integrated dishwasher, extractor hood, oven, hob, and fridge/freezer. Spacious in design there is room for comfortable informal dining. It benefits from a generous wash room that leads to the rear garden and provides access to a WC and separate shower. On this floor is a versatile study to the rear that houses a multi fuel stove and bespoke built-in bookcases. Ascending the carpeted staircase, you reach three generously proportioned light-filled double bedrooms. Each is tastefully decorated and allows for a versatile furniture configuration. The west-facing principal is enhanced by a versatile walk-in dressing room. They share access to a design-led modern bathroom installed in 2017 and equipped with a chrome towel radiator, washbasin built into vanity, hidden cistern WC, and bath with a wall-mounted rainfall shower, all set against chic grey porcelain tiles. Returning to the landing, a compact set of stairs leads you to the flexible attic space which houses a fourth double bedroom and plenty of storage. Internally the property benefits from BT Halo Broadband, fibre to cabinet, good speeds and a digital landline whilst oil central heating ensures it is warm and comfortable all year round.
EXTERIOR
A serene, gated west-facing garden with a manicured lawn, pretty borders, and a sizeable greenhouse lies to the front. The well-finished greenhouse has both power and water and is perfect for gardening enthusiasts and moments of relaxation.
