3 bed end terrace house for sale

Main Street, Kilwinning, North Ayrshire KA13

24 Main Street, Kilwinning
A rare opportunity to acquire one of Kilwinning’s most admired period homes.
This traditional end-terraced cottage, locally known as “The House at the Cross” or “The Masons’ Howff”, offers a truly unique chance to own a piece of Kilwinning’s rich heritage. Steeped in history and full of character, the property enjoys a prominent setting at the heart of the medieval Abbey town, within easy reach of a wide selection of shops, cafés, and restaurants.
History & Character
Dating back to circa 1744 and sympathetically restored to award-winning standards, including a Civic Trust Award in 1986, the home blends gothic-inspired period features with carefully considered modern comforts, creating a rare balance between timeless atmosphere and contemporary living.
Accommodation
A welcoming reception hallway leads into the front-facing living room, where a sash window floods the space with natural light and a magnificent inglenook fireplace with multi-fuel burner and stone-carved surround creates a striking focal point. A large under-stair storage cupboard offers additional practicality.
The spacious dining kitchen provides ample storage and room for family dining, complemented by sash windows to the rear and side along with direct access to the garden. A versatile third bedroom completes the ground floor and could equally serve as a home office or additional reception room.
Upstairs, two generous double bedrooms are served by a beautifully appointed luxury bathroom featuring a free-standing bath-an elegant retreat in which to unwind.
Outside Space
The home’s charm extends outdoors, beginning with a beautifully presented front terrace enclosed by wrought iron railings. This private garden, complete with a traditional stone summer seat, is host to the historic Mercat Cross, which once marked the site of Kilwinning’s market square.
To the rear lies an idyllic enclosed garden, thoughtfully landscaped with a timber arbour, stone bird bath, and Victorian-style lantern post, offering a peaceful haven. Gated access leads to a private rear car park, with additional gated access at the side, shared with one neighbouring property.

Rarely does a property of such historical importance and character come to market in Kilwinning. 24 Main Street offers an exceptional opportunity for buyers seeking a home that combines heritage, charm, and practicality in a truly unique setting.
