Description
Occupying one of the best locations north of Glasgow, this stunning detached home is set amidst approximately ten acres of beautiful garden grounds, including a private loch, with direct views over the Campsie Hills.
Moor House was built in 1936 and purchased by the current owner in 2010. In 2013, the house was subject to a significant programme of extension, upgrade and sympathetic modernisation to create this outstanding “small estate” that is undoubtedly one of the best family homes to come to the market within commuting distance of Glasgow.
The house extends to circa 8000 sq ft and offers extensive and flexible family accommodation over two levels. Our video and floorplan will provide a better idea of form and layout, but a brief summary of the accommodation is as follows:
Turreted reception hall with spiral staircase; superb living / dining / kitchen with direct access to patio; dining room; formal lounge with fireplace and windows on three aspects; a spacious conservatory; large utility room; separate boiler room; cinema room; large gymnasium with W/C off; pool room with phenomenal vaulted ceiling, sauna, changing room and W/C. From the ground level there is also access to the large integral three-car garage via a cloakroom with W/C.
The spiral staircase leads to the upper hall, where you access the expansive primary suite. This space features a balcony overlooking the loch and towards the Campsie Hills, a large dressing room, and a spacious en-suite bathroom. There are six further bedrooms, an en-suite bathroom, a family bathroom, shower room, and extensive storage. The upper level also provides a vast billiards / games room with bar and W/C, plus a useful additional kitchen.
Separate to the main house, the original garage has been converted into a studio space. Over two levels and with its own W/C, this space could easily be used as a self-contained cottage for teenagers, parents or home help.
The superb grounds extend to around 10 acres of beautifully maintained outdoor space, with approximately 4 acres occupied by the private loch. A ground source pump is in place, generating enough electricity to power the entire house. A delightful walkway encircles the loch. The lower garden area also presents scope for further development, subject to the necessary planning consents, with potential to construct additional properties adjacent to the loch.
A dry-stone wall and high hedges offer complete privacy, whilst an electric gate gives access to the sweeping tarmacadam driveway that leads to the front of the house. The incredible gardens are a mixture of lawn for ease of maintenance with ornamental shrub beds, random specimen trees and mature planting that lead to the loch.
Moor House is perfectly placed on the southern edge of Strathblane village, surrounded by open countryside and the Campsie Fells, providing breathtaking views around the house while being easily commutable from the city centre.
Glasgow can be reached by car in less than 30 minutes, with Stirling and Edinburgh both easily accessible. The local village provides a selection of essential amenities, whilst nearby Milngavie and Bearsden offer a much wider range of shops, schooling, and sports clubs. In addition, the local area is rich in outdoor activities including Mugdock Country Park, walking trails and golf courses.
