Interior expert on hand for buyers at Donaldson Wynd by Westpoint Homes. Westpoint Homes has taken the wraps off a spectacular new show home at the prestigious Donaldson Wynd development in Balfron, Stirlingshire. The impressive five-bedroom home has been decked out in eye-catching décor by top interior designer, Eileen Kesson of Envision. Eileen – who has specialised in show home interiors for 15 years –certainly seems to have the magic touch when it comes to creating spectacular showcases for Westpoint. This is the third show home she has styled at Donaldson Wynd in the last 18 months, with the previous two properties quickly snapped up by buyers who simply had to have them. So popular is Eileen’s work that Westpoint is now offering buyers at Donaldson Wynd the chance to have her apply her expertise to their new home. An Envision interior design package to the value of £10,000 will come with each sale, adding that extra special finishing touch to these stunning homes. Westpoint is also offering part exchange deals on its Donaldson Wynd homes, meaning house hunters could find the transition to their newly styled dream home that little bit easier. The new Ben Avon show home sits among 10 other bespoke Donaldson Wynd homes, each sitting on a spacious plot with larger than average gardens. The home’s grand, traditional façade hints at the impressive scale within. On entering the property, visitors will immediately be struck by the scale of the bright, airy hall which features a statement grand oak staircase. The décor throughout the show home takes its inspiration from its unique setting – a blend of rural living with big city sophistication close by. The palette is based on easy-living light neutrals, sharpened up with chic charcoal and summer-bright splashes to add interest and vibrancy to this large family home. The spacious lounge has been decorated using subtle putty and bronze leaf print wallpaper with ivory upholstery and chunky herringbone ivory drapes, blended with jet and dark wenge furniture to create a sophisticated but inviting space. The dining room, which links to the lounge through glass double doors, has been decorated using a stunning French copper and black floral wallpaper to the feature wall with plain copper coordinating walls – a very distinctive, glamorous design serving as an ideal backdrop for entertaining. The main event in this house has to be the luxury sized combined kitchen, breakfast and family room, which has access to the landscaped lawn area via feature French doors. This room has been decorated to complement the limestone, vanilla and walnut tones of the kitchen cabinetry, with a feature wall in a striking horizontal banded design and large scale abstract ivory and black floral linen drapes in the family zone to create a chic but welcoming ‘modern country’ kitchen feel. The downstairs of the home is completed by a study, utility room and WC. The home also benefits from a separate double garage. Upstairs, the master suite has been decorated to tie in with the colour scheme in the main living area downstairs – it uses an art-deco inspired cream and black stylised floral design to the bed wall, teamed with smart pinstripe velvet drapes. Two large fitted wardrobes and an en-suite including double sink, bath and separate shower complete the master quarters. A further four bedrooms – one with en suite and all with fitted wardrobes – are to be found upstairs. Bright colour accents such as vivid fuchsia, jewel purple and refreshing mandarin is balanced with softer greens, greys and crisp whites to ensure the eye-catching style of this home is consistent throughout. A very large 4-piece family bathroom completes the upstairs accommodation. As well as working with Eileen to design the interior décor, clients at Donaldson Wynd will have the opportunity to customise the fixture and fittings throughout with Westpoint encouraging them to put their own stamp on their home. Graham McNeil, Development Director for Westpoint Homes, said: “Donaldson Wynd is really about creating the dream home – the location is superb, the size and layouts are second-to-none, and the level of customisation is excellent. There is a real opportunity here to design the home you have always wanted. “Add the part exchange we have on offer, and a £10,000 credit to work alongside an experienced and proven interior designer, and the overall value-for-money on offer is difficult to beat. “This is the third show home we have had at Donaldson Wynd and something tells me it will only be a matter of time before we have to create another one. Every home is one-of-a-kind and Eileen’s ability to bring these homes to life with her interior design ideas has enabled buyers to visualise the potential in each.” Just five homes remain at Donaldson Wynd, with prices starting from £410,000. A new three storey house type will also be launched shortly. The sales office is open from 11am to 5:30pm Thursday to Monday.
