DESCRIPTION A delightful property providing a stunning contemporary home on one level. The current owners have undergone a programme of renovations in recent years creating a delightful home, finished to a high specification. A deceptively spacious house with an abundance of outside space, landscaped and terraced into the topography of the site and a range of outbuildings. Entrance via the main door leads to an entrance porch/cloakroom area, leading into a central hallway with modular roof light, which floods the space with natural light. Extensive storage space leads to a utility room with space and plumbing for washing machine, fitted units and storage cupboard with sink. Undoubtedly the heart of the home lies in the open plan living/dining/ kitchen space with stunning coastal views enjoyed from the wall of glazing to the south westerly aspect. The space benefits from a feature wood burning stove for the cooler evenings. The modern fitted kitchen offers a range of fitted units with dresser style storage space and breakfast bar peninsula. Fitted appliances include induction hob, fitted oven/grill, fridge freezer, under counter dishwasher, with sink and window in front, framing that delightful view. Finished beautifully with navy units and a quartz worktop. The glass sliding doors connect inside with out, opening directly to a paved front terrace with partial marine quality balustrade, providing an external continuation to the living space, perfect when entertaining friends and family. Fairhaven provides three double bedrooms, two of which offer a modern fitted shower en suite. The master opens directly to the front terrace. The third bedroom to the side of the property sits adjacent to the modern family bathroom, complemented with a stunning tile finish and Vitra suite including vanity unit. The quality of the completed works is clear to see with solid oak internal doors, oil central heating with Hive control and all windows are Nordan casement style, with an aluminium covering although timber framed. A large loft provides extensive storage space. Externally the property occupies a private elevated location and includes a deceptively sizeable site which has been cleverly landscaped to the front to make best use of the gradient. The garden room offers a delightful space to relax/unwind and enjoy stunning views up the estuary, with potential to create an office/ hobby space within. Fairview is a unique opportunity to acquire a stunning home taking advantage of the wonderful location in the heart of this sought-after yachting village, with spacious accommodation ideal for hosting family and friends.SITUATION Fairhaven sits elevated in a prime position above the heart of the sought after coastal village of Kippford on the Colvend Coast, colloquially known as the Scottish Riviera. Kippford has beautiful coastal walks, a nature reserve and superb forest trails, all of which can be accessed on foot from Fairhaven. There are two inns (serving meals and local ales), the RYA award-winning Solway Sailing Club, a cafe/gift shop, a village hall which serves as a thriving community hub, an RNLI station, 9 hole golf course with tea room, and a pottery.
