Occupying a commanding elevated position with magnificent views overlooking the Clyde Estuary this unique architect designed villa by Blast Architects was built circa 2004 to an exacting standard by the present owners. The subjects offer exceptionally contemporary styled family accommodation over four levels with every chance to benefit from solar gain from the south facing aspects.
The subjects are enhanced with quality double glazing and a system of LPG gas fired underfloored central heating.
The accommodation laid out in a split level style extends to entrance level with an entrance hallway leading to a reception hallway. This leads to the master bedroom, second bedroom and convenient wc and wash hand basin. An elegant staircase leads to the upper and lower floors. The master bedroom is a spacious apartment with integral wet room with Phillipe Stark shower and twin wash hand basins. There is a luxurious leather tiled floor, exposed oak frame and steel work. The secondary guest bedroom once used as a nursery has a connecting door to the master bedroom but could be blanked over if not required.
The lower floor is gained by open tread staircase and leads to a modern contemporary kitchen designed by C P Hart including integrated appliances by Neff which include a five ring gas burner, microwave-oven-grill and fan assisted oven, dishwasher and fridge with separate freezer. The flooring is engineered American black walnut. There is a convenient study area situated to the rear and sliding double doors give access to the private garden. An impressive family bathroom incorporates a contemporary suite by C P Hart and bath by Norman Foster, the flooring is polished porcelain with underfloor heating.
The upper level incorporates a formal living/sitting area with minstrels gallery and vaulted ceiling featuring the oak frame and roof mounted double glazed velux window. There are panoramic views from thefloor to ceiling double glazed sliding doors to a Juliet balcony with planning permission still available for a balcony. There is slate flooring, wood burning stove and in-built spotlighting. The upper hallway acts as a tranquil sitting area and leads to 2 double sized bedrooms with natural timber flooring.
The Longhouse sits within a mature garden with southerly aspects and incorporates lawned areas, rockery/flower beds with a sizeable timber decked area accessed from the dining kitchen. There is a stainless steel and wired balustrade on the external stair.
The subjects were prominently featured on Channel 4 Grand Designs Programme.
