Rare main-door upper conversion with large rooms, sea views and private garden.
Panoramic sea views from triple-windowed lounge and principal bedrooms
Set on a raised Victorian villa, this main-door upper conversion delivers genuine seaside character and sweeping panoramic views across Millport, the Eileans and Wee Cumbrae. Large triple-windowed lounge, four bedrooms (one en suite) and separate dining room give flexible space for family living, holiday use or downsizing into a substantial coastal home.
Energy-efficiency upgrades include solar panels, a recently installed air source heat pump, double glazing and 6" internal gable insulation, which reduce running costs compared with older flats. The flat also benefits from private gardens and cellars, shared outbuildings and two pedestrian access points (Bute Terrace and Howard Street).
Practical points to note: the property currently has an EPC rating of E and Council Tax band D; broadband and mobile signals are average in the area. Some internal areas appear dated and the building retains period fixtures—buyers should expect selective modernisation to bring kitchens, bathrooms and finishes fully up to contemporary standard. The communal elements (common washhouse, bin store, coal shed and grounds) require shared maintenance.
This rarely available conversion suits buyers seeking a characterful seaside home with scope to personalise, or investors interested in a sizeable flat in a popular island town. A physical viewing is recommended to appreciate the views, layout and private external space.
