1 PEDMYRE HOUSE Carmunnock, Glasgow

2 Pedmyre House is an historic gated family home set within extensive, tranquil and picturesque grounds. Situated in the heart of Carmunock, it has been lovingly renovated, and re-modeled resulting in a truly unique home inside and out. As well as a beautiful interior with an array of exceptionally comfortable living spaces, there are several outhouses including a gym, garaging for 3 cars, a wine cellar, hot tub and gazebo and a gardner s WC. The original portion of the house dates back to the 1400s, and saw Mary Queen of Scots as one of its houseguests. The remainder has been expertly extended and lovingly remodeled to produce what stands there today. Features include Sonos sound system throughout, a highend security CCTV system and interior/exterior perimeter alarm, and two efficient heating systems with the added advantage of back up water tanks in place. 2 PEDMYRE HOUSE

4 The grounds of Pedmyre House are what truly set this property apart from any other home in the West of Scotland. It has 2.5 acres of beautifully manicured gardens including a pretty yet very large low stone-walled duck pond and duck house on a central island, which can be seen as you drive into the property. There is a burn running across the front of the property, and the current owners have installed three picturesque bridges, over which you can cross over to the duck pond and adjoining woods. The two sunken gardens provide the perfect opportunity to install flower beds or a herb garden. 6 PEDMYRE HOUSE

6 The current owners use the entrance at the end of the sweeping driveway, on the side of the West wing. Opening onto a limestone tiled floor, here you are greeted by a comfortable hallway with a fully fitted utility room, cloakroom, shoe storage area, WC and fitted cupboards. Adjacent to the newer West wing, which is where you can enter the property via the side entrance, there are two magnificent outhouses. One is the original stone ivy-covered garage which now houses the central heating system, a storage area, the wine cellar with a sink and tasting area, and a Gardner s WC. As you pass a mirrored water feature you will come to a newly built two-story garage. On the ground floor is space to accommodate three cars. Through a side entrance there is a solid maple staircase leading up to a fully fitted gym, shower room and kitchen. This is large enough to be converted into a self-contained flat, home office, or a child s snug and playroom. It has maple wood flooring, two separate lighting systems, electronic Velux windows, a fully fitted kitchen and shower room. In addition it has large double doors and small paris style balcony affording views of the gardens, hot tub and woods beyond. Adjacent to the garage is the Porcelanosa hot tub housed in a pretty wooden Pagoda which is heated and has lighting installed. There is also additional power points here and an outdoor shower. Beside the East wing are two sunken gardens surrounded by beautifully manicured hedges. The current owners have cleared these gardens so they are ready to be turned into a rose or perhaps herb garden. Paved paths surrounding these gardens lead you around to the back of the house where you will find a glass gazebo with living tiled shell flooring and large enough for a table and chairs to allow you to sit and enjoy the evening sun. Backing onto the property, onto which several sets of French doors open, there is a very pretty paved area perfect for a large outdoor table and chairs. Power points and lighting are installed. There are a number of outdoor power points and taps around the grounds for to assit with the grounds maintenance. 10 PEDMYRE HOUSE

7 Through the side entrance hall into the kitchen, the hub of the home sets an inspiring standard that is continued throughout. The kitchen is homely yet practical, modern yet with historic touches such as exposed beams and a traditional Aga. This spacious, light filled room is large enough for both a breakfast bar area and a large family table next to pretty French doors, which open out onto the patio overlooking the vast expanse of garden. As well as all the appliances you would expect there is also an additional hob and sink, and a drinks fridge. All appliances are integrated. The exposed beams and Dutch tile floor add charm and character, and it has been tastefully decorated with high specification fixtures and fittings including granite worktops and a ceramic tiled floor. Leading on from the kitchen is a continuation of the limestone tiled floor into the formal dining room. With French doors onto the patio and gardens on one side, and views over the pretty duck pond on the other, this is an exceptionally spacious room in which to entertain guests. Leading off from the formal dining room you will find the formal sitting room. As with the dining room it has two sets of French doors onto the patio and garden on one side and picturesque views on the other. It also features a traditional fireplace. This room has lacquered oak wood flooring, which continues into the library/ television room making it a less formal sitting area. This comfortable and cozy, yet bright room features a traditional fireplace and another set of French doors onto the gardens. Leading off this room is the entrance to the front door, CCTV cupboard, staircase leading to the master bedroom and main front entrance of the house. 12 PEDMYRE HOUSE

9 Just off the main entrance of the house is a carpeted staircase leading up to a bright landing, and as this is the oldest part of the building it has some lovely design features including porthole windows overlooking the duck pond to the front and gardens to the rear. The East wing would perfectly lend itself to separate living quarters, or additional bedrooms. From the hallway there is a large double bedroom, fully fitted bathroom and another spacious room, which could be used as either a further generously proportioned bedroom or additional sitting room. This wing has its own separate heating and lighting system 16 PEDMYRE HOUSE

10 The main feature of the first floor is the sumptuous master bedroom suite which has a wall mounted fireplace and enough room for a comfortable seating area. Off the master bedroom is a generous sized dressing room with fitted wardrobes and dressing area. This leads to a large en-suite bathroom with a stand alone shower unit, Victorian free standing bath, two sinks, two fitted cupboards and a large mirror with tasteful spotlights. Attic Leading up from the dressing room is a unique carpeted spiral staircase. The attic is currently used as a gym and storage, but it has been fully converted with carpet, spotlights and built in high-specification cupboards and so would lend itself to a home office or additional bedroom. 18 PEDMYRE HOUSE
