Description

Glenearn is a superb, modern home built in a quiet setting in desirable Muirton. The house sits south-facing within an extensive plot with beautiful, mature gardens to the rear. The accommodation is bright and spacious throughout, and has been finished to a high specification with Porcelanosa bathroom fittings and American hardwood flooring throughout.

The open plan kitchen / dining room has a fabulous outlook over the garden, as well as a window to the front of the house. The kitchen is by Kitchens International and features a central island with curved breakfast bar, walnut cabinetry and a useful walk in pantry. Integrated appliances include two Siemens ovens, fridge freezers, and an induction hob with extractor fan overhead. The utility room sits to the side offering fitted storage and a Belfast sink. It has a back door leading out to the rear garden, and a further door into the integral double garage.

Also off the kitchen / dining room sits the orangery which has French double doors opening onto the terrace – a lovely entertaining spot overlooking the garden. Situated off the central hallway is the living room which is approached by part-glazed double doors, and has a south facing window overlooking the front garden. Other rooms on the ground floor include a guest double bedroom which could also be used as a home office, a WC and a useful coat cupboard beside the front door.

A staircase from the main hallway leads up to the landing above. An abundance of natural light is provided by a large, arched southerly window which overlooks the galleried landing. Two of the bedrooms have Juliet balconies, walk-in wardrobes and en suite bathrooms with shower cubicles and fittings by Porcelanosa. There are two further double bedrooms which sit south-facing and share the use of a further bathroom off the landing.   

The house is approached though electric wrought-iron gates set between two stone pillars. There is a generous parking area to the front of the house, and direct access into the integral double garage. The principal garden lies to the rear of the property and has an extensive lawn and a charming summerhouse overlooking it. A great deal of privacy is provided by the established hedges that surround the property. The large paved terrace offers a wonderful spot for outdoor dining with practical access into the house.
