Full Details for 4 Bedroom Detached for sale in Isle of Bute, PA20 :
Sell Simple Estate Agency are delighted to present HILTON HOUSE, a substantial, much admired and expertly converted former farm steading.
Offered to the market for the first time since its conversion in 1999 this superb four bedroom property is the highest inhabited property on the outstandingly beautiful and historic Isle of Bute. Its situation high above sheltered Kames Bay and Port Bannatyne (with its newly built 100 berth marina) offers simply breath-taking views in all directions.
The extensive accommodation has been carefully laid out to take full advantage of the property’s unique position and offers generous and bright rooms throughout. Every element of the property’s construction has been completed to the highest standards having been overseen by the former Chief Surveyor for the National Trust for Scotland. This really is a special property and earliest possible viewing is recommended to fully appreciate this impressive home.
ACCOMMODATION
From the front door a spacious, welcoming and beautifully decorated reception hall sets the tone for the rest of the house with its French doors leading to the courtyard terrace. From the hall you have a choice to head west to the bedroom wing or to step down into the double-height inner hall with its custom-made Brazilian Mahogany spiral staircase.
The bedroom wing begins with two south facing double bedrooms and the fully tiled family bathroom conveniently placed between them. Both bedrooms have French doors leading to the courtyard terrace and built-in wardrobes and dressing tables. At the end of the roof-light lit bedroom hallway is a corner sitting room with a lovely fireplace and convenient electric stove. Through a glazed door from the sitting room a further hallway leads to the main guest bedroom with French doors leading to the west terrace and built in mirrored wardrobes and its fully tiled ensuite shower room. At the end of the hall is the triple aspect master bedroom with dressing room, large fully tiled ensuite shower room and French doors to both the courtyard and west terraces.
The living accommodation leads from the double-height hall; proceed up the spiral staircase and the full length of the former barn is occupied by the living room. This expansive room has windows on all four sides (including an original arrow-slit window) with all the windows around the sitting area having been specially designed to allow the views to be enjoyed whilst guests are seated. The large open fire has a hand-made wrought iron grate and a Bute slate surround and, we are told by the owners, “roars away” on cold winter nights! The rear of this wonderful room offers a quiet spot for reading with its large picture window overlooking the hills to the north of the house.
The lower level of the former barn accommodates the dining kitchen. This room is very spacious with a superb range of oak fitted floor and wall units and glass display units all lit to create a warm ambience which is added to by the Italian terracotta floor tiles. There is a range cooker, built in fridge and dishwasher and marble-topped island unit, all laid out for convenient food preparation. The dining area currently accommodates a very large oak table so there is plenty of room for entertaining on a grand scale.
Also on this level is a utility room with sink and plumbing for washing machine and tumble dryer as well as a fully tiled cloakroom and wc. Completing the accommodation is an integral garage housing the central heating boiler, handy for drying wellies and jackets after a day’s walking!
OUTSIDE
The approach to Hilton starts alongside the shoreline as you turn in from the coastal road to Rhubodach Ferry and the Kyles of Bute. From the gate at the bottom of the road you climb up through Hilton Wood and then through gates to Hilton itself. There is a large gravelled drive with ample parking and there are beautifully maintained grounds surrounding the House mainly laid to lawn, with palm trees, fruit trees and stone terracing suitable for planting shrubs and flowers. The large central sheltered courtyard captures the sun all day and is perfect for outdoor entertaining or simply relaxing and taking in the amazing views – from Skelmorlie across the Toward peninsula to the east, Largs and Cumbrae, Craigmore and Ardbeg Points on the island, south over Kames Castle and Port Bannatyne Golf Course and west across Ettrick Bay to the north ends of the islands of Inchmarnock and Arran and further to the Mull of Kintyre – quite spectacular. There is outside lighting surrounding the house and a timber framed shed at the bottom of the drive.
