Slater Hogg & Howison are favoured with the sale of this splendid traditional sandstone detached Edwardian villa which enjoys an enviable elevated position commanding panoramic views across Maybole to the countryside beyond. The property is approached via a substantial private driveway to the impressive front elevation which is surrounded by established gardens. Built circa 1820 the property retains original charm and character of the period with a plethora of features including superb decorative detailing and moulded/panelled doors, marble fireplaces and stained/leaded glass windows and a period conservatory to the side. In addition there have been some modern influence including a modern fitted kitchen by Moben with integrated appliances and gas central heating system with double banked radiators.
