About this property

  • Collymoon House is a detached rural property with magnificent views, spacious, bright accommodation and tremendous versatility. Constructed over two floors the property offers four spacious bedrooms, two of which benefit from en suite facilities, and a third family bathroom. The ground floor sees comfortable and generous reception rooms provide a great deal of entertaining space balanced with superb modern comforts.

    The modern kitchen with quartz work surfaces, integral Neff appliances and InSinkErator hot water tap are testament to the modern touches, while the log burning stoves, wooden floors and open views from just about every room in the house combine to create a warm and welcoming traditional feel, this is country living at its best.

    The bedrooms are spacious and bright, two with built in wardrobes, two with en suite bath/shower rooms and one with a Jack and Jill bathroom. There is an additional loft access to a partially floored attic space which provides scope for potential further developments (subject to planning consent).

There are three main reception rooms with a sitting room accessing a sun room to the rear of the property with fully retracting bi-folding doors allowing for "inside outside living" which provides access to a Brazilian hard wood terrace area. There is also a spacious games room/music room which could also be used as a generously sized home office. There is also an additional bathroom on this level.

Local information

  • Offering peace and privacy, Collymoon House sits surrounded by open farmland in every direction. It occupies a beautiful rural setting with fine views over the surrounding countryside, to the south over the Gargunnock Hills and the Campsie Fells and to the west over Ben Lomond. The property is easily accessible, with the motorway network only 14 miles to the east providing swift access to both Glasgow and Edinburgh. While Stirling has a mainline railway station, Glasgow can be reached more directly by the A81 through Strathblane. Both Glasgow and Edinburgh airports offer regular services to London and other UK cities as well as services to a number of international destinations.
