Seventh heaven in the crescent

And biggest en- suite we’ve seen

- STEPHEN HOUSTON

Troon has many high- calibre homes, but this one is only among seven enjoying a share of its own paddock.

Bentinck Crescent encloses this old grassland of around ten acres. And presumably ownership allows you to tether your own goat or pony.

‘ Eastfield’ is a traditiona­l four reception and four bed detached villa.

But it has been expensivel­y and comprehens­ively upgraded into an amazing family home.

The reason why it has a oneseventh share of the paddock is that the Crescent only had seven homes when it was formed.

Now there are about double the number of homes as pockets of garden were sold off.

The Troon office of Corum has just put the villa on the market at offers over £ 995,000.

Corum say: “It has a plethora of period features and contempora­ry finishes.

“These include several fireplaces, carved panelling, stained glass windows above the staircase and within the formal lounge, box and bay window formations and beamed ceiling in the sitting room.”

Contempora­ry finishes including a bespoke kitchen with centre island, Silestone work surfaces,

You arrive into the grounds via electric gates, with multiple parking on the gravel.

The hall is a picture in wood, from the floor, to doors, staircase and full height panelling.

The entertaini­ng space is ideal for the gin- glugging set of this neighbourh­ood.

The lounge is 31 feet long and is connected to the sitting room via sliding doors.

The kitchen is the height of style and has its own butler’s pantry. You will have to pay extra for an actual butler.

There is a large formal dining room as well as plenty of space in the dining kitchen as a more relaxed family area.

Upstairs there are four bedrooms including a giant master suite with dressing room and bespoke five- piece en- suite bathroom. Measuring 15ft by 13ft 10ins including feature central bath, double shower and his and hers sinks, it is palatial.

Out the back there’s a large lawn, decking, patio and a summerhous­e. Corum on 01292 310010, offers over £ 995,000.
