Surrounded by unspoilt countryside, the property enjoys an enviable sense of peace and seclusion, where the soundtrack to everyday life is one of birdsong, rustling woodland and the gentle flow of the nearby burn. Regular sightings of deer, birds of prey and an abundance of native wildlife make this a true haven for nature lovers and those seeking an escape from the pace of modern life.

At the heart of the home is a beautifully appointed breakfast kitchen, enjoying delightful views over the garden. More than simply a place to cook, it is a welcoming hub for family life-perfect for informal dining, hosting friends, or simply relaxing with a morning coffee and the Sunday papers while taking in the peaceful surroundings. Two substantial reception rooms, each centred around a wood-burning stove, offer flexible spaces for both entertaining and everyday living. During the colder months, they become wonderfully warm and inviting retreats, providing the perfect setting to unwind after a day spent enjoying the surrounding countryside.
The accommodation includes four well-proportioned bedrooms, including an impressive principal suite complete with en-suite bathroom and private sauna, creating the perfect space to relax and unwind. Positioned to take full advantage of the property's spectacular outlook, the dedicated first-floor office provides a peaceful and inspiring environment for home working or running a business.
Outside, the detached garage, workshops, storage buildings and sheds provide exceptional flexibility for vehicle storage, hobbies, outdoor pursuits or additional workspace. The extensive grounds offer endless opportunities for gardening, recreation and simply enjoying the spectacular natural surroundings. Tucked away beside the gently flowing burn, the charming bothy provides a peaceful retreat, immersed in the tranquillity of its surroundings. Equipped with a wood-burning stove and a solar-powered electrical system with inverter, it offers a wonderful place to relax, unwind and connect with nature. Whilst not suitable for permanent habitation, it is a delightful addition to the property, enhancing its unique appeal and lifestyle offering.
The property also benefits from an impressive range of modern, energy-efficient features including an air source heat pump system, solar panels with battery storage, and a private sewage treatment plant installed in October 2025, all of which remain under warranty, providing peace of mind together with reduced running costs and enhanced environmental credentials.
