6 bed barn conversion for sale

Glassingall, Cairnston Steading FK15

Located within an exclusive steading development just outside Dunblane, this impressive barn conversion offers generous accommodation over two levels. Thoughtfully designed with modern family life in mind, it combines contemporary finishes with character features such as exposed stonework, a dual-aspect log burner, and a welcoming flow between rooms. The layout has been cleverly planned to provide excellent storage as well as quiet corners for study or relaxation, while the large windows and French doors throughout ensure the house feels wonderfully bright and airy.

The property opens into a large and impressive entrance hallway, which doubles as a seating area and provides a warm introduction to the home. From here, access leads to the formal lounge and to the spacious kitchen/dining/living area at the rear.

At the heart of the home is the superb open-plan Ashley Ann kitchen, dining and living space, finished with high-quality quartz worktops, two electric ovens, an induction hob, and integrated dishwasher. French doors open directly to the garden from both the kitchen and the living area, filling the space with light and creating a seamless connection between indoors and outdoors. A log burner adds warmth and character, making this the ideal family hub for both everyday life and entertaining. A utility room sits just off the kitchen, providing space for additional appliances.

The formal lounge, with its bright aspect and access from the hallway, features the dual-aspect log burner shared with the hall, offering a cosy atmosphere and an excellent space to relax. Also on the ground floor are a stylish shower room and a further bedroom, currently used as a home office.

Upstairs, five well-proportioned bedrooms each include built-in wardrobes. The main bedroom is a particular highlight, enjoying a lovely garden aspect, a dedicated dressing area, and a luxury ensuite bathroom. Another bedroom also benefits from its own ensuite, while the remaining three bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom. All are beautifully finished, providing comfort and practicality for family members and guests alike.

Externally, the property enjoys both private and shared outdoor spaces. To the front and side are beautifully landscaped wraparound gardens, enclosed by stone walls and thoughtfully planted to create an attractive setting with areas for seating. To the rear, there is a shared courtyard area, maintained as part of the steading development and adding to the sense of community. A driveway offers off-street parking for two cars, while a garage within a shared terrace is just steps away.

An additional opportunity exists with a field of around an acre opposite the house, available by separate negotiation. Currently used as a children’s play area, it could equally be enjoyed as extra green space or for equestrian or recreational purposes.

The property is ideally located for enjoying a semi-rural lifestyle while remaining close to Dunblane’s schools, shops, transport links, and railway station.

What the Current Owners Loved Most

They also highlight the brightness created by the large windows and French doors, along with the landscaped garden and the outlook over the field opposite, which have added to the sense of space and enjoyment.
