North Mid Frew, Thornhill, FK8

CHAIN FREE - Halliday Homes Collections are delighted to welcome to the market North Mid Frew, an outstanding, individually designed country home, with a 2 bedroom cottage and an array of outbuildings. The subjects enjoy an idyllic setting amidst circa 2.75 acres and benefit from spectacular panoramic views to Stirling Castle on a clear day, Ben Ledi to the north and Ben Lomond to the west with stunning sunsets.

The house has been skilfully remodelled and designed to take full advantage of its open position and its wonderful aspects. It is essentially L-shaped, built under a slate roof with striking harled elevations. A circular tower with an elliptic staircase cleverly links the two wings of the building at both ground and first floor levels. At the top of the tower is a second floor sitting room/office with 360° panoramic views.

The property is presented in outstanding order with beautiful interiors and a high specification. Double storm doors open to a semi-circular entrance porch with exposed stone wall and tiled floor. A glazed screen and astragalled door then leads to a large welcoming reception hallway, off which are a WC, the kitchen, an under-stair store, the library, and the drawing room and dining room.

At the heart of the house is a generously proportioned kitchen with a tiled floor and a vaulted ceiling. It has an extensive range of painted wooden base and wall mounted units with granite worktops, incorporating two sinks (both with waste disposal units), an electric hob with oven and grill below, an integral fridge, dishwasher and an additional fridge freezer. There is also a green four-oven Aga. French doors set in an archway open to a courtyard to the north of the house and combine with windows on both the east and west walls to make the kitchen wonderfully light.

Next door to the kitchen, complementing its informal living space, is the formal drawing room. It has a polished wooden floor and a substantial wood burning stove set into a stone surround. French doors open to a paved patio and there are wonderful open views over the Carse towards the Stirlingshire Hills beyond. There is an open plan dining area which has the same polished wooden floor. Double doors lead from the drawing room to the library with extensive bookshelves. A glass door leads to an impressive games /gym/ music room with shower room off. A superb sound proofed cinema room provides the real cinema experience with floor level lighting and bar area.

From the reception hall, the principal staircase leads to a substantial first floor landing, off which are a large under stair store and a walk in linen store.

The principle bedroom suite is exceptionally generous, extending to over 600 sq ft. It has two fitted dressing rooms and a beautifully refurbished, large en suite shower room with marble flooring, underfloor heating, curved wall, and fin wall separating twin vanity basins and walk in shower. The bedroom and bathroom both have wonderful views. There are three further bedrooms on this level and a family bathroom. One of the bedrooms has an en suite shower room. On the second floor the circular lounge/ study with raised plinth takes full advantage of the 360° views.

The Annexe

The cottage forms part of the original steading and was converted in 2005. A glazed door leads directly into the large sitting room, off which is a kitchen with units at wall mounted and counter levels. They incorporate an electric hob, oven and hood and a dishwasher. It has two bedrooms and two bathrooms. One bedroom has an en suite bathroom and the other has a connecting door to the main bathroom.

The Outbuildings

The outbuildings, converted from the farm steading, house the biomass boiler. These include a large workshop, wet room shower, laundry, four car garage and wood store. A former cattle court has been converted into a second, large garage with a tiled floor, a roller door and fitted spotlights.
