Description

Arranged over a characterful split-level layout across three main floors, it offers an impressive blend of period elegance, modern eco-efficiency, and outstanding development potential. Alongside the main house, a substantial stone outbuilding of around 646 sq ft benefits from full planning permission to create a two bedroom, one and a half storey home, with a separate entrance; a rare addition that makes this property truly stand out.

Lovingly maintained by the current owner for over 20 years, the home has undergone significant recent works including comprehensive internal insulation, the majority of windows are triple glazed, with two original sash and case windows in the large reception room adding character and charm, a brand new air source heating system, and solar pv panels with a 25-year guarantee. In 2025 the property was fully re-plastered and redecorated, giving a fresh, stylish finish that enhances its grand proportions and original features.

The ground floor opens with a welcoming vestibule leading into a wide entrance hall, where a sweeping staircase and high ceiling immediately set the tone. Period details flow throughout, with original banisters and woodwork setting a sense of grandeur.

On the first floor, two generous reception rooms provide elegant living and entertaining spaces, each bathed in natural light from tall sash windows in the larger reception room & triple glazing in the second reception, including framed with decorative cornicing and one traditional fireplaces and one modern stove fire.
From this level, a few steps lead down into the family kitchen and dining room, a superb heart of the home with extensive cabinetry, a breakfast bar and ample space for family dining or social gatherings. A modern family bathroom sits nearby, along with a versatile double bedroom and a large walk-in utility/store room with sink offering excellent practical storage & a potential en-suite.

The upper level hosts four further bedrooms, all light filled and well proportioned. The principal bedroom enjoys impressive dimensions and open views, while the additional rooms offer flexibility for children, guests or home working. A contemporary shower room completes this floor, catering perfectly for family living.

Externally, the home offers a rear driveway and garage, along with an exceptionally generous garden, approximately four times the size of an average garden and could potentially be a building plot subject to planning permission, providing scope for outdoor living, play and relaxation.

Perfectly positioned around 27 miles from both Glasgow and Edinburgh, Carnwath combines easy commuting with a welcoming village atmosphere. Local shops, cafés and amenities are on the doorstep, while open countryside surrounds the village, making this an ideal setting for families and professionals alike.

On a secondary note with the closure of the village hotel and B&B, the property also offers excellent potential as guest accommodation or holiday letting Airbnb with 7 letting rooms (subject to consents).
