Set within approximately three-quarters of an acre, this beautifully positioned detached home offers an exceptional blend of rural charm, natural surroundings, and flexible living—including a fully self-contained detached studio with an additional bedroom.

Situated near the peaceful hamlet of Kinbuck and just a short drive from Dunblane, the property is surrounded by expansive, mature gardens carefully cultivated to support a rich and diverse ecosystem.

The main residence is a spacious one-and-a-half-storey detached, thoughtfully laid out across approximately 157 square metres. The ground floor features a welcoming open-plan entrance hall and sitting area, leading to a generous living room, a separate dining room, a well-equipped kitchen, two bedrooms, and a shower room. Upstairs, the master bedroom enjoys its own en suite bathroom, complemented by an additional bedroom that could serve as a study or guest room—making this home ideal for families, couples, or those needing flexible workspace.

Adding significant value and versatility is the detached studio within the grounds. Fully self-contained and including an extra bedroom, the studio holds a valid holiday let licence, offering an excellent opportunity for short-term rental income, guest accommodation, or private workspace. It comprises a ground floor living room, kitchen, shower room, and sitting area, with a bedroom and additional seating space on the first floor. Tastefully designed and well-appointed, the studio has a strong track record of successful letting, with financial details available to serious buyers.

The grounds themselves provide a true sanctuary for wildlife. Red squirrels are regular visitors, while grey herons often pause at the garden pond to hunt. Newts can be spotted beneath the water’s surface, and the abundant birdlife includes species such as blue tits, long-tailed tits in late season, bullfinches, and woodpeckers—delighting those who feed them.

A small wooded area in the lower garden hosts a variety of native trees—oak, horse chestnut, rowan, birch, and beech—offering shelter and habitat for birds and small mammals alike. Fruit trees planted along the garden’s edge add seasonal interest and further encourage biodiversity.

The property embraces sustainability with two well-established vegetable patches. One includes a small shed and an assortment of fruit bushes, while the other features raised beds, ready for seasonal planting. In the lower garden, free-roaming chickens contribute to the authentic country lifestyle this home effortlessly supports.

Additionally, there is a stable and tack-room on the property, complete with power and lighting, providing excellent facilities for equestrian needs or versatile storage options.

Although there is no garage, generous private parking is available, with ample space should you wish to add one in the future.

High Craigton presents a rare opportunity to own a peaceful, wildlife-rich property combining lifestyle and income potential—set in a stunning natural environment yet within easy reach of local amenities and excellent transport links in nearby Dunblane. It is the perfect home for those seeking a slower, more connected pace of life.
