Rooms

Vestibule & Main Hallway
Push open the original front door of Dunollie, to reveal a warm welcome from a home that has been meticulously maintained and is brimming with warmth and light. Step onto the original mosaic tiled floor, as you pass through the vestibule notice the period wallpaper giving an authentic Edwardian feel. A grand hallway gives the first glimpse of the substantial size of the rooms in the property. The heritage of the home is on show with its original stained glass entrance door, deep skirting boards, original staircase to name but a few of the inherent features.

Front Reception Rooms
Follow us through to the two reception rooms, both bay fronted with generous proportions, perfect for families, with the lounge and sitting room overlooking the front garden. Intricate covings, original skirting boards, and stunning crystal chandeliers give a real air of grandeur to these well-lit rooms.

Morning Room
At the rear is a third reception room, the Morning room, a more relaxed setting, featuring the original servant’s bell box and a large window allowing the light to flow in, framing the view of the rear garden. All 3 of the reception rooms feature beautiful, working Edwardian fireplaces with modern multi-fuel flues, together with original stained glass windows, as found throughout Dunollie.

Kitchen-Diner
Located just off the inner hallway, the kitchen-diner is a stunning extension to the original property. The extension boasts a vaulted ceiling, featuring a large glass roof window and triple-fold doors that seamlessly blend with the rear garden. The result is a bright and airy space that is bathed in natural light. The Kesseler Kitchen is a masterful fusion of quality, exquisite design, and British craftsmanship. Hand-painted cupboards finished with Farrow & Ball, equipped with AEG integrated appliances, including a dishwasher, double fridge/freezer, and hidden cooker extractor, sit over a SMEG double oven range cooker with 6 gas burners and a grill plate. The Quooker tap provides instant boiling water and filtered cold water, making this kitchen a true delight. Italian granite work surfaces emphasize the elegance and bespoke quality of this kitchen. The open plan living space is cleverly zoned for dining and relaxing, with a media wall that is perfect for watching TV.

Rear Hall and WC
Just off the kitchen-diner you have a rear hall leading into the garden, separate downstairs toilet, with wash basin, vanity unit and vintage style radiator & towel rail.

Third Bedroom
Overlooking the rear garden this large double bedroom features a built-in period wardrobe and can comfortably fit a king sized bed with bedside tables. All 3 double bedrooms feature their original Edwardian fireplaces.

Stairs and Landing
Back into the main hallway, the original staircase climbs past a huge stained glass window, and up to a large light filled landing. The linen cupboard sits just off the landing, it is worth noting here that the loft hatch pulls down to reveal a sturdy ladder and the loft of all lofts! The potential is enormous. Perhaps you will add a staircase and convert the loft into another master suite, or games room, or perhaps cinema room? Endless possibilities.

Master Bedroom
This large bay fronted bedroom with original fireplace and surround can comfortably accommodate the largest of beds. The lovely en-suite features a huge double rainfall shower, marble topped vanity unit, underfloor heating and vintage inspired towel rail & radiator.

Second Bedroom
The large second bedroom is a similar size to the master, features stained glass windows, and can easily accommodate a super king size bed.

Fourth Bedroom
Currently used as a dressing room and home office, this single bedroom is located at the front of the house, and features a rather unique double aspect window with stained glass. This room would make a perfect nursery / children’s bedroom, or retained as an office, ideal for working from home.

Family Bathroom
The main bathroom is effortlessly elegant, with underfloor heating, marble topped vanity unit, another vintage style towel rail & radiator, and fitted with a sleek rainfall shower. A free standing tub, complete with chandelier over, helps you to unwind and relax after a long day.

Garden
Privacy beech hedges to the front with block paved entrance leading to the front door and side gate. The front garden has a lawn, is planted with a number of box privets and two red tip photinia trees either side of the impressive front door and porch. The rear garden features with a variety of mature trees and shrubs, including a japanese cherry tree which delivers early season blossom, a grand magnolia, and a number of acer trees. This very private, south facing and secure space is enclosed by an original perimeter brick wall. A beautiful summer house/gazebo is perfect for taking shade and relaxing. Alongside is an area ideal for BBQ’s/pizza oven, this is a fantastic space for cooking al fresco! The garden features a large patio area to the rear and side, together with a lawn and borders well stocked with shrubs and trees.

Garage
Finally, we come to the huge two storey, tandem, brick built garage. A former stable with hay loft, the garage provides secure off road parking, garden storage, and features a powered electric sectional door. The garage could, subject to relevant permissions, make an ideal annexe.
