| Beautiful views for beautiful bungalows |

With whitewashed walls and rows of windows outlined in traditional black, three luxury bungalows coming soon from Alexander Morton Homes, have been designed with an eye to traditional Ayrshire cottages, and sit easily in their superb setting at the company's Knocklandhill development on the edge of the conservation village of Kilmaurs.
However, step inside the broad glazed doors into the elegant entrance and you are in no doubt that these charming four bedroom homes are nevertheless at the cutting edge of the best of modern design. The all important first impression is of a light and welcoming reception space where generous amounts of oak framed glass in doors and windows allow natural light to flow effortlessly through a shapely hallway to both the spacious lounge and the luxury kitchen diner.
Light and space are famously signature features of every Alexander Morton home, so it should be no surprise that there is more of the same to come. Even from the hallway the eye is drawn through a sequence of double glass doors in the dining kitchen to perhaps the loveliest part of the bungalow: the beautifully proportioned glazed garden room.
This room is, indeed, the stuff of dreams: thirteen foot by thirteen foot of light filled indulgence. A conventionally roofed room properly part of the house, this is a fully insulated and double glazed sunroom and not a conservatory. As such it is designed to be the all-weather heart of the home. Individual homebuyers may choose to make this room an alternative elegant dining space or a generous second sitting room. Whichever, the garden room is a superb entertaining and living space whether the cooking happens inside in the adjoining luxury fitted kitchen, or al fresco through French doors to the patio or garden
All three bungalows open onto large gardens (two are south facing) with wide open views over the rolling Ayrshire countryside. The bungalows are scheduled for completion July 2005 and share a host of high spec features with the company's model home at Knocklandhill, currently on view by appointment and most weekends.
