£385,000
Property Ref: 13740 Council Tax:C 45 Kilmiston Drive was purchased in 2022 and an intensive modernisation programme commenced immediately using a local, trusted reputable builder. The plan was to totally strip the property internally, re-design and rebuild to a very high specification, block pave the front garden and completely redesign the rear south facing garden. Within three weeks the house was reduced to an empty shell - only the stairs, floors, load bearing walls, rafters and front and rear doors remained. New internal walls were constructed throughout, sound boarded, acoustically insulated and plastered. New skirting boards and architraves were fitted before the property was completely decorated. The original external water main pipes were replaced to increase the flow rate to the property. New plumbing was fitted throughout, including a new high end boiler, radiators and thermostats. The property was fully rewired throughout, which included a new mains board, switches, sockets and LED lighting. Solid oak doors and bannisters were fitted. A new shower room was constructed, which included a high quality digital shower and electric underfloor heating. The ground floor was prepared and new flooring fitted throughout. New high end carpet and underlay was fitted to the stairs and three bedrooms. A luxury, designer kitchen was fitted, which included an integrated, pyrolytic, dual oven with microwave, ceramic induction hob, extractor, a full height fridge and freezer, dishwasher and boiling hot water tap. All windows were replaced with anthracite, double glazed units which incorporated maintenance free, integral blinds that remove the requirement for external blinds or curtains. Solid oak window boards replaced the original units. The front garden was block paved after a new surface water drainage system was installed. The enclosed, south facing rear garden was completely re-designed with new borders, new lawn and new patio. The integral garage was fitted with a fully insulated roof, a radiator and a new insulated, electrically operated door. The total modernization has created a beautiful, contemporary home with the benefit of a totally new interior. A photographic record is available.. ..
