4 bedroom property for sale

Fantastic opportunity! Auchengreoch is a four bedroom Farmhouse and forms part of a delightful hamlet of only three properties in private and secluded grounds of approximately Three Acres. The house has been designed to make the most of its unspoiled rural position with panoramic views across the local countryside and is a most desirable equestrian property.

Perfect for those of you who have a family; work from home; looking to start your own business; or all of the aforementioned. This property boasts flexibilty and oozes opportunity with a dollop of character to boot. Not one to be missed. The property was previously valued at £400'000 and with a renewed valuation not far off that, you know that the purchase of this property could turn out to be a very profitable one. Not to mention the rental opportunity, with this being such a large property. And enough parking space to hold a small festival!

The Farmhouse itself is of a traditional single-storey l-shaped construction and has been maintained and imaginatively designed to offer excellent family and guest accommodation.

Upon entering the Farmhouse via the main front door, the living accommodation is accessed from the upper hallway. The immediately impressive open plan lounge and dining room provides generous living space totaling some 29 ft by 19ft. The focal point of the lounge is a picture window to one side, as well as full height patio doors leading to the south-facing rear gardens - this opens onto an attractive tiled patio area. The lounge also features a traditional wood-burning stove. The formal dining area has a large window to the rear as well as patio doors overlooking the front of the property. There is ample room in this zone for a table and eight chairs for more formal dining with friends and family. Beyond the dining area, a delightful family kitchen/breakfast room beckons. Fully fitted, the kitchen includes a 'Smeg' hob, a 'Stove' double oven, an integral fridge and a 'Smeg' dishwasher, together with extensive storage units.There is also a snazzy breakfast bar, which is ideal for informal dining or for grabbing a quick coffee with the Sunday papers ! Whilst enjoying a view of the back garden, the kitchen also has a feature window, with window seat, overlooking the front of the property to the landscaped and wooded areas beyond. Adjacent to the dining kitchen is a large utility room. Some 17ft in length, the utility room exits to the back garden. This room includes the boiler and storage cupboard, fitted worktop over lower storage units, two further full height storage cupboards and space for all usual appliances. As you gaze upwards, a sense of tradition is retained with the traditional pulley - a real conversation piece !

Leaving the main living areas, one exits the lounge into the main hallway which is 52ft in length. Immediately adjacent is a cloaks cupboard, which in turn, leads to a newly refurbished W.C., comprising toilet and wash hand basin. The four generously proportioned bedrooms are each accessed from the hallway, as is the family bathroom. This has been recently re-tiled and includes a double shower unit, corner bath, wash hand basin and corner W.C. - it also contains floor to ceiling fitted wardrobes and storage cupboards along its full length. The largest bedroom, currently used as a twin room for children, overlooks the front of the property, in addition to which there is a Velux window with remote control solar blind. The current master bedroom is of generous proportions, as are two further double bedrooms, which are presently used as an office and a music studio. There is ample room within the bedrooms for additional freestanding furniture if required.

The property has gas central heating, double glazing and a wood-burning stove in the lounge for additional comfort. There is also a monitored 'Redcare' alarm system for further peace of mind. There are presently three telephone lines - one for telephone, one for fax/broadband and the third for the alarm system. The main TV is provided by Sky, for which television points exist in the lounge, kitchen and three of the bedrooms. A second multi-satellite dish is capable of receiving more than 2000 TV channels.

Externally, the property enjoys a choice of two entrances from the main Auchengreoch Road, each leading to the courtyard. The estate within comprises a large grass paddock and generous woodland area as well as several other gardens, including three allotment-style plots overlooked by a 'stage area' of professionally installed decking, part of which supports a large greenhouse. Central to the grounds is a large outbuilding. This includes a double garage with mezzanine storage, a double stable and a large tack room/woodshed. This building may be capable of further development into an annexe or would make for a stunning home office (subject to local authority consents being obtained).

To the rear of the main house there is a large landscaped garden. Facing south and enclosed, this garden includes a separate children's play area and a large garden shed/summerhouse, currently used as a workshop, with fitted workbench and storage area. All of the grounds are easily maintained having regard to their layout and nature.
