View propertyEast Mhor House is a substantial detached residence from the 1900s. The four/five bedroom detached period home was formerly the old Manse to its neighbour the Kirk (a historically important Arts and Crafts church and now private home). Similarly, Eas Mhor has lots of lovely period features awaiting restoration and modernisation, along with characterful décor redolent of William Morris interiors. The exclusive property offers a wealth of accommodation with highly spacious rooms, as well as generous private parking and sweeping wraparound gardens. It also boasts a truly stunning location in a private and commanding setting high above Kildonan, complete with incredible sea views overlooking Pladda and Ailsa Craig. Sandy beaches are nearby with opportunities to watch migrating sea birds, seals and otters. Forest trails are practically on the doorstep too, winding through the Eas Mhor ecology and nearby hydro project.
Inside the home, you are greeted by a hall with a coat closet and a store room with a washbasin. From here, there are multiple reception areas to enjoy. The dual-aspect lounge will prove the heart of the home, especially with its spacious footprint and bay window framing amazing sea views. It also boasts a beautiful period feature fireplace and a shelved recess for display items. Next door is a versatile study/sitting room, which can also be used as a fifth bedroom (if required). Also with dual-aspect windows and a feature fireplace, it offers an intimate setting to suit the needs of the buyers. A large, light-filled dining room provides a third reception area for family meals and lively dinner parties. It also faces towards the sea to capture those panoramic views and it neighbours a lovely sunroom that really makes the most of the sea vista.
In addition, there is a charming breakfast room for casual meals, which is openly connected to the kitchen. The kitchen itself has a generous arrangement of wood-toned cabinets and sweeping worksurfaces in stone effect. It is an attractive look that suits the character of the building. It also accommodates a range cooker and freestanding appliances. Next door, there is a rear porch for muddy boots and a separate utility room, providing further storage and workspace. Completing the ground floor is a three-piece shower room.
The four bedrooms are on the first floor, each enjoying spacious proportions and an airy ambience, as well as patterned wallpaper and snug carpeting for comfort. The front-facing bedrooms also boast far-reaching sea views – an inspiring backdrop to wake up to. Just off the first-floor landing which is naturally lit, there is also a linen cupboard and a three-piece bathroom, equipped with an overhead shower.
Outside, the carefully-maintained gardens wraparound the property, offering a wealth of space and impressive views across neighbouring farmland, forestry, and the coast. The gardens feature vast manicured lawns, mature trees and plants, and a dedicated vegetable plot, as well as a greenhouse and a shed. Ample private parking is also assured thanks to a private driveway and an attached single garage.
