Description
Montgreenan Property Group are absolutely delighted to present to the market Illieston Castle.
Set within private picturesque sweeping countryside grounds (circa) 20 acres & bordering the River Almond complete with its own fishing rights.
It is one of THE finest country residencies to grace the Scottish market in recent years & is sure to appeal to a vast array of purchasers both locally & internationally.
Richly steeped in history, Illieston is thought to date back to the late 16th century when it served as the Royal hunting seat of the Kings of Scotland, most notably James II & James IV. The lands of Illieston have been mentioned as far back as the 1200s & the Roman name Halistonium was once used.
Despite it's enviable countryside setting, Illieston is also very easily accessible for commuting either locally into Edinburgh City -11 miles, Glasgow-36 miles or internationally via Edinburgh Airport which is only 5.9 miles away.
Having been fully renovated throughout by the current vendor to an incredibly high standard, Illieston walks the fine line of combining the period features & craftsmanship of a bygone era with all the finest mod cons that one would expect from such a luxurious stately home.
Ground subjects comprise; vestibule, reception hall, drawing room, WC, sitting / dining room & a fully fitted kitchen diner with utility room off. An alluring turreted staircase connects all floors.
1st hosts "Kings Room", bathroom & bedroom.
2nd hosts 3 further bedrooms (master ensuite) & a stylish shower-room.
3rd hosts watch tower.
External benefits include; wine-bar, gym, office & many outbuildings offering further development opportunities (subject to relevant planning approval).
The magnificent manicured grounds are vast & will lend themselves well to a multitude of different purposes.
The magical walled garden is perfect for outdoor entertaining.
