4 PROPERTY DESCRIPTION The property was built approximately 10 years ago and echoes the style of a Scottish Baronial tower house with a more recently added rear extension providing substantial, bright contemporary living space extending to approximately 4,510 sq ft. The house has been created to make the most of views out over the garden and grounds with stunning vistas in all directions but particularly over the trout stocked loch to the rolling hills beyond. Externally, there are well planted gardens adjacent to the house leading down to the shores of the loch, which has two fully fitted chalets ideal for fishing parties. A stone bridge (built by General Berrisford in 1838) leads over the loch to further mature woodland to the south and to the west is a large parkland paddock. A boathouse hunkers beside the winding drive and a double garage can be accessed directly from the house. A Ford tractor, rotary mower and 2 mahogany rowing boats are included in the sale. LOCATION The property sits within a wooded glade in the charming hamlet of Macbiehill, close to the A701 and approximately 13 miles south of Edinburgh City Bypass. This is a delightful rural setting offering far ranging vistas over the surrounding countryside yet offering good access to Edinburgh and the central Scotland motorway network. The picturesque village of West Linton is just 4 miles away and offers a selection of local amenities including shops and schools, whilst the more extensive amenities of Peebles, Biggar and Penicuik are within easy reach. The superstores and retail outlets at Straiton, on the southern fringes of Edinburgh are also conveniently located. Those who enjoy country pursuits will be in their element in this area with ample opportunities for country sports, walking, cycling, golfing and equestrianism.
