Merkland, Duchal Road, Kilmacolm

Situated in the very heart of the village of Kilmacolm, Merkland is a substantial traditional upper villa that beautifully combines period character, generous proportions and flexible family accommodation within one of the area's most desirable settings.

A striking stone stairwell leads to the entrance vestibule, with a further staircase rising to an impressive 19-foot reception hallway. From the moment you enter, the abundance of natural light is immediately apparent, with two beautiful front-facing oriel windows flooding the principal apartments and framing fine views towards St. Columba's School.

The elegant formal lounge is a superb reception room, featuring a charming window seat, feature fireplace, intricate cornicing and ornate ceiling rose, all of which highlight the home's traditional character and architectural detail. These original features continue throughout much of the property, adding warmth and a wonderful sense of character.

The principal bedroom enjoys a similar front-facing aspect with a further oriel window and feature fireplace, creating symmetry across the frontage of the property. Positioned between these rooms is a office room.
