Full description

Gateside Barn is an impressive and intelligent conversion of a traditional stone and slate barn which, subsequently extended, now forms a beautiful but practical family home.

Positioned in the first unspoilt valley north of the Firth of Forth, and surrounded by beautiful countryside, it remains within easy commuting distance of Edinburgh and Glasgow and their respective airports, Dunfermline, Perth, Stirling and the whole of the central belt. There are excellent education facilities, both state and private, for primary and secondary schooling in the area.

The conversion itself was conceived and overseen by the present owners with the express purpose of creating a spacious yet homely environment. As many of the original features as possible have been retained and the warm and welcoming appeal of the house has been further enhanced by the clever integration of reclaimed pine panelling and real wood floors.

Discreet but highly effective lighting plus good use of Velux windows and internal glass panelled doors give the house a wonderful open plan feeling whilst affording easy separation of the ground floor apartments if necessary.

The accommodation on the ground floor flows well. The focal point is the magnificent galleried dining room, which leads to the lounge, kitchen, utility / boot room, ground floor master suite, study, shower room and downstairs WC. From here an ornate and functional wooden staircase leads to the upper landing.

Once on the upper landing a full length banister rail creates a gallery overlooking the dining room and gives access to four further bedrooms and the family bathroom.

Each bedroom has been individually designed around the existing structure of the building with the original beams forming a common and pleasing feature of the whole upper part of the house.

The kitchen has a homely farmhouse feel, with beamed ceiling, wooden floor and Aga. There is also plenty of space for an eight seater dining table.

Natural light is a feature of the house, with both the master bedroom and lounge having full length feature windows on two sides with views to the garden and the hills beyond.

The lounge features beamed ceiling and a woodburning stove set on a tiled hearth.

The family bathroom contains a magnificent roll-top bath with tiger’s feet legs and is lit by Velux windows set into the sloping ceiling.

Outside

Immediately to the front of the property is a gravelled area providing ample parking. There is also a detached double garage.

To the side is an immaculate, enclosed and sheltered lawn with raised flower beds planted in a ‘cottage garden’ style. There is a further large lawned area and private drive out to the front gate.

This property lends itself to enjoying country living and family life to the full, and is truly a rare gem in today’s rental market. It is ideal for those who wish to relocate to the Scottish countryside, and yet remain within easy reach of all the amenities the cities of the central belt have to offer.
