61 Longhill Avenue

Description
Longhill Avenue is a popular address linking the historic village of Alloway with Doonfoot to the south of Ayr and consisting predominantly of executive detached villas that are within the catchment of the renowned Alloway Primary School. Number 61 is a substantial and truly impressive detached family villa, architecturally designed and built circa 1987, with an interior that extends over seven principal apartments, 3 and a half bathrooms and around 3000 sq ft. There is a flexible layout, with an attractive flow through all the living spaces that will appeal to the modern family and the current owners have extended the original home across two floors to create a large utility room and en suite shower room. The property sits on around an acre of gorgeous garden grounds that are a truly unrivalled feature, that allows a sweeping monoblock driveway, a detached double garage and an incredible sunny rear garden that has burns that flow off the River Doon running through it, a large decked, elevated patio, mature trees and numerous outbuildings.

In more detail, the internal accommodation extends to a large reception hallway with double doors through to an incredible lounge to the rear, with a Gazco Riva gas fire and two sets of sliding patio doors out to the decking at the rear. An open archway with stairs leads down to a dining room, with a third patio door out to the decking and that leads through to a fitted kitchen, with a separate utility that extends into a one and a half height utility room with a door to the rear, and the kitchen also leads through to a family room at the front, with double aspect windows. There is also a modern downstairs WC, under stairs storage and a downstairs double bedroom that is currently utilised as a home office.

On the upper floor there are two master suites, one to the front and one to the rear, both with fitted wardrobes and en suite shower rooms. There is storage and loft access from the landing, a fully tiled family bathroom suite and a double bedroom with fitted storage, which has access through into the eaves.

The extensive garden grounds include a sweeping monoblock driveway to the front with parking for a number of vehicles, with a lawn and mature trees. The driveway leads to a detached double garage at the side, with light, power and electric up-and-over doors. Attached to the garage is a garden store and purpose built dark room for photography enthusiasts, with a sink. There is access at both sides of the house round to the breathtaking rear garden, which is west-facing with a significant southern aspect, and has a delightful range of hard and soft landscaping, including a decked patio and viewing platform down the garden, lawn, garden stores and an Alton greenhouse, which is cedar with powder-coated bar capping, monoblock pathways, meandering burns, mature trees and a detached log cabin at the bottom of the garden that is currently utilised as a home gym.
