Hip not to be square
Welcome to the home with a triangle
It’s an architectural feature that has gone out of fashion . . . if it was every in.
But the triangular window featured in this week’s property oozes character.
And on the inside looking out, you can lounge in your bathtub, looking out on a three- sided world.
This semi on Prestwick Road - and it’s neighbour with a slightly larger triangular window - are well known for their distinctive look.
Interestingly just along the road two other houses have interesting windows - half moon shaped.
While it is a traditional property, the good news is it has been completely revamped for the modern age.
Agents Donald Ross Residential say it is a “truly outstanding traditional three bedroom extended semi detached villa with driveway and landscaped gardens.”
There are six main rooms and upgrading has kept the noteworthy features.
Ornate cornices, iron balustrade with wooden rail, and hardwood flooring through the lounge, hall, living room and upstairs in a bedroom.
Number 29 is presented to the market in show home condition and the back of the house is open- plan now favoured by families.
The lounge measures nearly 21 feet into the bay window and the dining room/ family room is more than 25 feet across.
As its centre- piece the lounge boasts a feature fireplace with double height mantle and mirror.
A galley- style kitchen stretches into the back garden with big double ovens, skylights and a door to the outside world.
Though the house is on the main road, it is fortunate to have Falkland Road running alongside.
That means cars can be driven through the double gates onto the hard- standing in the back garden, protected by a five- foot stone wall. Stunning frontage
Out back there is also a brick built store room attached to the extension.
And a raised wooden decking outside the French door to take in the setting sunrays.
Built in wardrobes provide some extra handy space in the bedrooms upstairs.
