6 bed detached house for sale

Lanark ML11

Set within approximately 3 acres of private and secluded gardens, Kirkfield House is a beautifully restored 18th Century Country House with commanding, panoramic views over the Clyde Valley. Originally home to the Stein family, the Lairds of Kirkfieldbank for three generations, the current owner has spent the last 13 years lovingly restoring this charming Country Home to it’s former glory.

A long, beautifully manicured, tree-lined driveway creates an immediate impression of the quality home to be found at the end. During the restoration of this property the owner has given equal attention to the outside features as well as the internal. The garden grounds are immaculate with a newly constructed paved terrace providing a spacious seating area with views over the formal walled garden. Additional seating areas are positioned around the property to catch the moving sun and a small gate in the walled garden opens to the stunning pool area with breath-taking views over the Clyde Valley. This decked terrace provides a fabulous entertainment space with a BBQ hut offering shelter no matter what the Scottish weather offers. Within the grounds there are also extensive kitchen gardens for those looking to grow their own produce. The owner has also previously reared pigs within the properties woodland areas.

The house has been restored, retaining many features that only an 18th Century Country House can offer, blended beautifully with stylish, modern comforts. The kitchen is a prime example of this with modern fixtures and appliances, surrounding an aga Range cooker. Off the kitchen is a handy Boot Room which leads through to a gym. Also off the kitchen is a sitting room. The ground floor is completed by a formal lounge, spacious dining room, study, laundry room, cloak room and W.C.

On the first floor there six stunning bedrooms, two en-suites and a family bathroom.

The current owner has demolished a former outbuilding to the side of the property and achieved planning permission to build a three bedroom guest house. The decision was made not to proceed with this, but a future owner could if they so wished. A large steel garage was constructed to house a large motorhome with dog kennels and washing bays at the side. This compliments an additional garage and stone-built storage bays which provide excellent space for tractors and utility vehicles used for maintenance of the grounds.

This beautiful Country House is a true hidden oasis and with Scotland’s two largest cities available in under an hours commute it provides a restful retreat for those looking to enjoy rural live in Scotland but remain well-connected to Edinburgh and Glasgow Airports.
