Drumallan is a handsome, detached house, stone built under a slate roof, that was purchased by the current owner in January 2024. The property has since been substantially upgraded, with improvements including complete redecoration, the fitting of new floor coverings, the upgrading of the plumbing, the replacing of all windows and the back and front doors and the reconfiguration and refitting of the utility room. The kitchen has also been refitted and the partition wall between the kitchen and the dining room has been removed to form a desirable open plan living space. In addition, all shower rooms have been recently replaced, and the rear garden has been landscaped. The refurbishment has been sympathetically carried out, with the property retaining its period charm with many original features being left in situ, including the floor tiles in the entrance vestibule, some fireplaces, cornicing, picture rails, the servant call box in the kitchen and the associated bell pushes.
