Description
Craigmount is a beautifully presented detached Edwardian home, originally constructed in 1912, offering generously proportioned accommodation arranged over three floors. The formal entrance, located on the southern side of the property, opens into a bright vestibule featuring original mosaic tiles. This leads into a welcoming entrance hall rich in period character, showcasing attractive features such as wood panelling, stained glass windows, and intricate ceiling cornicing. From here, there is access to a WC, under-stair storage, and a graceful staircase ascending to the upper floors. A distinctive feature is the large arched stained glass window.
To the left of the entrance hall is the sitting room. This is a beautifully bright and elegant space with a traditional fireplace, ceiling cornicing, built-in storage, and a large south-facing bay window overlooking the garden. Adjacent lies the drawing room, another fine reception space featuring a further bay window, ceiling cornice detailing, an original press cupboard, and a period fireplace.
To the right of the hall is the fabulous open-plan kitchen and dining/living room, which has been stylishly renovated while retaining its period charm. With high ceilings, panelling, cornicing, and bay windows overlooking the garden, this superb space is both functional and sociable. The kitchen is exceptionally well-appointed, featuring four Siemens ovens, a Siemens hob, two sinks, extensive storage, and a walk-in pantry.
A side hall off the kitchen leads to a well-equipped utility room with additional storage and space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. Adjacent is a bright, peaceful study, benefiting from three windows and a skylight, making it an ideal home office. The inner hallway also provides access to a secondary staircase and a back door, which leads conveniently to the parking area and garage/ coach house.
On the first floor there are three spacious bedrooms off a large landing. Bedroom one is generously sized and features built in wardrobes, garden views, and a large en suite bathroom with both bath and a separate shower.
Bedrooms two and three are also accessed from the central landing. They are both double rooms with south facing views and built in storage. Opposite sits the large family bathroom, with freestanding bath, separate shower, and bay windows. Conveniently placed next door is the linen cupboard with built in storage.
On the second floor are three additional bedrooms, two large built in cupboards, eaves storage, and a further bathroom.
Craigmount sits in a plot of around 0.35 acres. This includes a lawn, flowerbeds, patio area, and a pathway around the property. There is parking for several cars, along with a garage with an upper floor (the former coach house).
Location
