This delightful four-bedroom, traditional detached cottage is set within beautiful garden grounds on the edge of the River Endrick and is only a short walk from all of Balfron’s amenities.
Dating back to the late 1700s and acknowledged as the birthplace of Sir Alexander (Greek) Thomson, the renowned architect, this B-listed cottage has been completely refurbished and now provides beautifully presented accommodation.
As our photographs and video show, this stunning home is in immaculate order throughout and provides comfortable, cosy accommodation, including: an entrance hall, reception hall with home office off, a beautiful living room with a stove, a fully equipped kitchen with a door to the garden, a bathroom, a double bedroom, and a further double bedroom with an en-suite shower room and door to the garden. Upstairs, there are two further bedrooms and a shower room.
In addition to the main accommodation, there is a charming one-bedroom cabin/bothy with a sun deck in the garden. The cabin has a full Airbnb license and has been regularly rented out on a short-term basis, generating a strong income throughout the year.
As shown in the floor plan, the ground-floor bedroom with an en-suite has direct access to the garden and can be separated from the main house, providing an additional rentable space.
The house is accessed via a cobbled driveway through electric gates, leading to the gravelled driveway/parking area, which then leads to a two-car carport. There is a further single garage/store adjoining the gable of the house. Also to the rear are sheltered seating areas, an ornamental pond with adjacent decking, and a covered hot tub. The remainder of the garden is laid to lawn with beautiful mature specimen trees. At the bottom of the garden is a superb timber outbuilding, currently used as additional social/living space. The entire boundary is screened by timber fencing and mature conifer hedging, and access to the walkways along the river can be gained from the rear garden.
