4 bed cottage for sale

Howgate Farm Cottage, Thankerton, Biggar, South Lanarkshire ML12

If rural is what you are looking for, then this is the property for you. Fabulous new build on a good sized plot (approx 0.53 acres) near the hamlet of Carmichael, by Tinto Hill. The current owner has just completed the self build, with every intention of living here, however personal circumstances have now brought about a change of plan, so we are delighted to market Howgate Farm Cottage.

Nestled in a lovely spot, with 360 vista, a location and property that really does have the 'wow' factor. Rural yet not isolated, with both Lanark and Biggar close by, also only 9 miles from the M74, opening up the central belt of Scotland, with both Edinburgh and Glasgow less than an hour by car.

Offering flexible accommodation, to the ground level, entrance hallway, double bedroom, shower room, utility and lounge which opens through to a lovely open plan kitchen/diner. Upstairs there are three bedrooms and a shower room. There is also a handy loft room, above the garage, accessed by a drop ladder. Without doubt, what appeals is the wonderful countryside setting, with stunning views from every room. The large plot offers endless opportunities, especially those who enjoy gardening and/or keeping animals. For those of a certain age, 'The Good Life' springs to mind, Tom and Barbara.

Location
Between the popular market towns of Lanark and Biggar, just a short drive from the M74, which provides access North and South, equidistant between Glasgow and Edinburgh, making it appealing for those who may need to commute, into the Cities or perhaps in need of easy airport access. The Royal Burgh of Lanark is steeped in history and has all the required facilities and amenities, including Tesco, Morrisons and Lidl, a wide range of local shops, retail park, health centre, leisure centre with swimming pool, modern grammar school, modern primary schools, historic 18 hole golf course and Lanark Loch. Good access to the Scottish Borders and the Clyde valley, providing excellent walks for the outdoor enthusiast including Tinto Hill, Culter Fell and the Falls of Clyde at New Lanark, a world heritage site. Lanark is much favoured particularly for those requiring good transport links across the central belt.
