This substantial 1930s detached villa occupies a quiet street in West Kilbride and offers generous, flexible family accommodation across two floors. Ground floor living includes two bay-front reception rooms, a modern kitchen with quartz worktops and appliances, a large double bedroom and a shower room. Upstairs are two further double bedrooms, one with a newly fitted en-suite, plus a separate WC. The house benefits from gas central heating and double glazing.
The property sits within mature, extensive gardens with a tarmac driveway providing plentiful off-street parking and a detached garage with light, power and plumbing. Outbuildings (potting shed and wooden shed) are also wired and useful for hobbies or storage. From the top of the garden there are attractive Ayrshire countryside views and a clear line of sight to local landmarks on fine days.
Strengths for a family are the room sizes (approximately 1,736 sq ft), flexible reception space and strong outdoor amenity for children and pets. The location supports daily life with local schools, craft studios, shops, coastal walks and good rail/A-road links for commuters.
Notable points to consider: the house retains many period features and some rooms show dated finishes and standard ceiling heights — some updating will improve flow and energy efficiency. Council tax banding is high. The wider area is classified as relatively deprived, which may affect resale timelines in certain markets. There is no flood risk and the property is offered freehold.
