DESCRIPTION Mayview is a delightful traditional house which is formed of two parts, the original Victorian house which was the gardener’s cottage for Ardargie House and then the extension which was added in the 90s which created greater reception spaces and increased the accommodation. The original house and the later extension work well together to create a spacious family home. Upen entering through the generous vestibule the entrance hall leads to what was the traditional kitchen which has become a delightful family room, an ideal space for family life with an AGA , this leads on the kitchen which has a good range of wall and base units and ample room. The family room also leads to a spacious sitting room which enjoys access directly onto the deck as well as a woodburning stove. Beyond the sitting room is the south-facing sunroom, this lovely room is ideal for enjoying the summer weather and connects the kitchen and the sitting room allowing the reception spaces to flow from one to the next.
