About
Named after Robert Burns’ Ayrshire farm, this striking property is the only one of the trio constructed entirely from sandstone and has had just four families in residence over its 120-year history.
Locally known as “Mossgiel Manor” after its feature in the Greenock Telegraph’s Come Dine With Us , this home has long been a cherished part of Gourock’s heritage and it’s easy to see why.
The house retains an abundance of period detail, including original cornice coving in all major rooms, original veneer wood panelling in the lounge and staircase, an original solid wood fire surround with onyx tile hearth, and a beautiful Victorian mosaic floor in the main entrance.
The craftsmanship and design of the early 1900s are showcased throughout, complemented by tasteful décor and a warm, welcoming atmosphere.
The ground floor includes a bright bay-windowed lounge, a versatile double bedroom, a formal dining room, a modern kitchen, and a convenient shower room with WC.
The kitchen comes fully equipped with a dishwasher, larder fridge, freezer, double electric fan oven, grill, and five-ring gas hob.
Upstairs, the generous layout offers three beautifully presented bedrooms, each with its own charm and colour palette, alongside a stylish family bathroom featuring a freestanding bath with hand shower.
The upper landing provides access to a utility cupboard with a brand new Samsung washing machine and extensive eaves storage.
Externally, the home enjoys mature gardens with a sun-trap patio to the rear, a smaller front seating area perfect for evening drinks, and even a mini orchard with plums, apples, rhubarb, and the promise of pears.
Seasonal bursts of colour appear throughout the year, from the pink azaleas to the annual fuchsia that magically blooms from the hedge.
