Garden Double glazing Off-street parking

This impressive main door upper conversion forms the entire top floor of a substantial and imposing red sandstone detached Victorian Mansion House which is set between spectacular views of Conic Hill and Loch Lomond. The property has its own main double door access to the front of the building and has timber framed double glazed windows fitted. The property has a natural slate hipped roof and is category C listed. The building is steeped in history, having been built by the Duchess of Montrose in 1891 to provide a country escape for ìpoorî children from the grim conditions of industrial Glasgow at the time ñ giving rise to the term "fresh air fortnight". The property is the largest of the three apartments in the building (which was sympathetically converted in the 1990s). With panoramic south facing views of the loch and countryside it enjoys its own private garden grounds to the front which are lawned and bounded by mature bushes and shrubs providing privacy and screening for the seating areas and property alike. To the side and rear of the building there are communal parking facilities with two spaces allocated specifically to the property. At the rear there is a space with planning permission for erection of a garage – which could also be used as a Boat House or storage for water sports equipment. Internally the property extends to over 1600 sq ft with a versatile layout and spacious, well proportioned rooms featuring many period features. On entering the property from the front there is an outer vestibule with original painted wood panelling which opens into a sizeable ground floor hallway again with timber panelling and original pitch pine floor. This area is currently being used as a study area. From here The beautiful original staircase with balustrade and handrail (also in pitch pine) ascends to the large galleried upper landing which in turn gives access to each of the fresh, neutrally decorated rooms. There is a sizeable formal lounge with original fireplace, separate and sizeable dining room with access from here to a good sized kitchen complete with inbuilt oven, hob and extractor hood. There is ample space for further appliances. There are three large double bedrooms (the master bedroom having a white ensuite bathroom and pitch pine floor), and a fourth bedroom adjacent to the master bedroom which could be used as a nursery/study/dressing room. There is also a large, white family bathroom with separate shower cubicle. The property is heated by modern electric panel storage heaters and boiler and as previously mentioned has timber framed, double glazed windows each enjoying fabulous views.
