Ardens, 107 Bank Street

Bank Street has long been a popular address within the market town of Irvine, with a range of executive Victorian homes individually built during the latter part of the 19th century that are all within walking distance of all town centre amenities. ‘Ardens’ at number 107 predates the opening of the Bank Street railway station serving the line that used to run behind it and is set on a preferred substantial plot. Constructed circa 1889, it is a truly impressive and gorgeous example of a traditional detached home, with generous living accommodation and private, walled gardens. The property is set over three floors and seven main apartments, with a perfect marriage of stunning traditional features that have been immaculately preserved by the current owners and luxury modern fixtures and fittings. There are period fireplaces, decorative ceiling roses, ornate cornicing, original doors and the grand, high ceilings that the most discerning buyer would come to expect from an executive Victorian home. The basement area has been converted into a home gym, a utility room with storage, separate basement stores accessed externally and a fantastic dining kitchen area that leads out to the garden. There are gorgeous walled garden grounds that compliment the interior, with access at the side round to ample off road parking and a manicured lawn area.
In more detail, the internal accommodation extends to an entrance vestibule leading through to a reception hallway, a bay-windowed lounge to the front with a wood burning stove, a second bay-windowed public room at the front with a feature fireplace, two double bedrooms, including one with a large cloakroom store and a fitted storage cupboard, a WC and a master bedroom suite with fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room. Stairs lead down to a basement level, which is ground floor level at the side and rear of the property, with a door out to the side, a home gym that leads through to a plumbed utility room, with two storage cupboards, including one housing the boiler, and access into the unconverted area under the floor of the house, and an incredible dining kitchen open plan into a family area, with a central island, high end integrated appliances and French doors out to the garden. On the top floor there is a four piece family bathroom suite and two large bay-windowed bedrooms, including one with access into a significant attic store.

Externally there is a manicured garden with lawn and pathways to the front. There is a driveway at the side that leads round to the rear and ample off road parking. There is large garden store at the basement level that leads through to another store. The rear garden is walled and has a level lawn, decorative shrubs and trees and a central patio that takes full advantage of the sun.
