Property Description

Discover "The Manse," a stunning and meticulously maintained residence at 14 Lugton Road, Dunlop.

This beautiful property offers a blend of historic charm and modern comfort, making it the perfect retreat for those seeking a tranquil lifestyle in the heart of Ayrshire.
Description:

Set back from the street, this house occupies a prominent position on Lugton Road. It was built as the Free Church Manse in 1847, two years after the Free Church in Dunlop was built.
As you approach The Manse, you're greeted by a grand entrance door that opens into a charming vestibule, where the original Minton tiles have been impeccably preserved, adding a touch of historic elegance. Stepping inside, you enter a spacious hallway that immediately showcases the home's character, highlighted by the stunning decorative cast-iron stair balusters, a nod to the property's rich heritage.
The newly designed kitchen features a large central island, perfect for meal preparation and casual dining. It is equipped with a high-end range cooker, making it ideal for culinary enthusiasts. A dedicated coffee area adds a cosy touch, offering a perfect spot for your morning routine.
The dining area seamlessly integrates with the kitchen, providing ample space for entertaining and family meals. A newly installed wood burner adds warmth and character to the dining room, creating a cozy ambiance for gatherings.
Additionally, planning permission has been granted to open the back wall and install large bifold doors, which will further enhance the space by bringing in more natural light and creating a seamless indoor-outdoor living experience. This future addition will provide direct access to the garden, making it an ideal setting for summer dining and entertaining.
The newly formed office in The Manse is a perfect blend of modern functionality and timeless charm. Designed with productivity and comfort in mind, the space features a large desk that comfortably accommodates two people, making it ideal for both collaborative work and individual focus.
The property also benefits from a large pantry, downstairs wc and a separate utility room with access to the back garden.
Upstairs at The Manse, you'll find three generously sized bedrooms, two currently serving as children’s rooms but adaptable to a variety of needs.
The master bedroom ensuite at The Manse is a show-stopping space, blending classic elegance with contemporary luxury. The room features an original fireplace, which adds a unique and charming focal point, enhancing the overall ambiance.
At the heart of the ensuite is a stunning roll-top bath, perfect for relaxing in style. A wall-mounted TV is strategically placed to allow you to enjoy entertainment while you unwind. Adjacent to the bath is a separate walk-in shower.
The second bedroom boasts a charming original working fireplace, adorned with distinctive green tiles that add a touch of historical elegance. This room is bathed in natural light and faces the private front garden, providing a tranquil view of the well-maintained grounds and ensuring privacy.
The third bedroom, equally spacious, overlooks the expansive rear garden, offering serene views of the beautiful outdoor space. Both rooms are equipped with classic shutters, enhancing their character and allowing for control over natural light and privacy.
These large bedrooms offer ample space for growing families or flexible use, combining traditional features with modern comfort in a picturesque setting.
The rear garden has been thoughtfully updated with new fencing, enhancing both privacy and security. It features two large lawned areas, ideal for children’s play or outdoor gatherings. The garden includes several large seating areas, strategically positioned to make the most of the sun and create inviting spaces for entertaining or simply relaxing.
A large, hidden tree house adds a whimsical touch, offering a special retreat for children or a charming feature for guests. Additionally, a shed to the side provides practical storage solutions, while a fenced-off area is currently used for dogs, ensuring a safe and secure space for pets to enjoy.
The loft space at The Manse presents a fantastic opportunity for expansion, with planning permission already granted for the addition of two double bedrooms and a bathroom. This versatile area is ready to be transformed into a substantial and functional living space, perfect for accommodating growing families or providing extra guest rooms.
A full staircase is already in place, providing easy and convenient access to the loft area. With its expansive layout and approved plans for enhancement, the loft offers immense potential to add significant value and customisation to The Manse.
