Property Description

There are homes that offer land, and there are homes that offer views — Auchenroch Holdings offers both in abundance. With around seven acres of newly fenced grazing ground, a powered barn, and gardens framed by the Campsie Fells, this charming smallholding combines practicality with a setting of rare beauty. Its slightly elevated position ensures wide, uninterrupted vistas across rolling countryside, while still feeling wonderfully private and welcoming.

Approached by a shared drive serving only a handful of neighbours, the property opens onto a generous yard with parking for several vehicles. To the left stands a substantial barn with power, offering excellent potential as storage, a workshop, or for future adaptation to suit a range of uses. Beyond the barn, the seven acres unfold, enclosed by a freshly creosoted timber and wire fence with a wide gated entrance for easy vehicle access. The land is ideal for grazing animals or equestrian pursuits.

A newly built porch provides a distinctive and practical welcome, its panoramic windows perfectly framing the surrounding hills. Terracotta tiles and warm timber detailing give the space a rustic, earthy character, while also providing the ideal place to leave boots and coats after time spent outdoors.

The porch flows into a kitchen and lounge that radiate warmth and comfort. The kitchen, recently refitted, features neutral cabinetry with a decorative splashback adding a touch of colour, while a wide window stretches across almost the full width of the room, filling it with natural light and drawing in the views.

The lounge is a truly homely space, where solid wood floors and fresh white walls are grounded by a striking red brick feature wall. In the corner, a large dual-fuel stove promises evenings by the fire, its glow adding to the room’s cosy, welcoming atmosphere. French doors lead directly to the garden and have been placed with a future wraparound deck in mind, an addition that would maximise the property’s elevated outlook.

From the lounge, a hallway leads to three bedrooms and a wet room. Two of the bedrooms are doubles, with the main also enjoying French doors that could open directly to the raised deck once completed. The wet room includes a WC, basin, and electric shower, and cleverly borrows light from the porch through a stained-glass window that adds a touch of colour and charm.

The gardens are beautifully maintained, with mature trees and shrubs, a neat hedge providing privacy from the road, and a manicured lawn that sweeps around the house. A cobbled and slabbed pathway lead to the porch, while the wider grounds offer scope to extend the home or adapt the outbuildings, subject to the necessary consents.

Auchenroch Holdings is more than a home — it is an opportunity to embrace rural life in comfort, surrounded by land, views, and endless potential. Whether for keeping animals, enjoying the outdoors, or simply savouring a slower pace in a beautiful setting, this fabulous wee home is sure to capture the hearts of many.
