Description Glendunning House is a fantastic country house which was built in 1992 in traditional Georgian style. The house offers exceptional accommodation and sits in about 1.72 acres of landscaped gardens in Dunning Glen. It currently has 6 bedrooms but has the potential for 9 in all. The house is constructed of white harled breeze block under a traditional pitched slate roof with crow stepped gables and faces south overlooking the garden. The front door leads into the main entrance hall which has timber panelling to dado height and an open fireplace with tiled surround and timber mantel. Doors lead off the hall to the principal reception rooms. The sitting room, to the left, is approached through glazed double doors and has a south facing window and a gas fireplace. The dining room also sits off the main entrance hall, to the right, and has large south facing windows providing beautiful views over the gardens and south through the Dunning Glen. It has an open fireplace and connecting doors to the drawing room. The drawing room is a fantastic space for entertaining with a large south facing bay window which stretches almost the full width of the room. An open fireplace sits under a stone mantelpiece. Further doors lead back to the entrance hall and there is a separate door to the pantry and thence to the kitchen. A passage to the left of the main entrance hall leads past a study, the staircase up to the first floor landing, glazed double doors leading out to the front of the house, to a guest bedroom and the snooker room. The guest bedroom overlooks the gardens to the front of the house and has a large walk in wardrobe as well as an en suite bathroom with WC, wash hand basin, bath and separate shower cubicle. The L-shaped snooker room has windows on two aspects. The full size snooker table with snooker lighting, scoring board and cue rack may all be available to purchase, subject to separate negotiation. There is a generous storage cupboard which is plumbed for use as an en suite bathroom and the bar area is also plumbed for the same use. This would potentially enable the division of the snooker room into two en suite bedrooms.
From the rear of the entrance hall an inner hall leads to the back door on the north side of the house. Off this hall are a guest bedroom with en suite bathroom, three separate WCs, a storage cupboard and the boiler/hot water tank room. It also gives access to the kitchen which has decorative tiled flooring, Zeyko German made fitted base and wall units with an integrated double sink and windows to the north and east. Integrated appliances include a Neff dishwasher, a four door Aga with two hobs, an LG fridge freezer and a Neff oven with grill and four gas hobs. An opening leads through to the pantry which is also fitted with base and wall units and work surfaces. Doors from the pantry lead out to the north of the house, into the drawing room and into the utility room. This has a Miele washing machine and Miele tumble dryer, fitted units with an integrated stainless steel sink and a larder cupboard. Four further double bedrooms are situated off the impressive first floor hall. It has a full height arched window overlooking the gardens to the north. The master bedroom sits in the south east corner offering spectacular views over the gardens and down the glen. It has a large open dressing area which has an additional door from the landing and three windows to the south. The en suite bathroom has a large Jacuzzi bath, WC, bidet, wash hand basin, separate shower and under floor heating. There are three further double bedrooms all of which have en suite bathrooms with baths and separate shower cubicles. The house has been provided with excellent storage including a box room and a linen cupboard off the landing. A secondary, concealed staircase leads from the rear of the hall down to a side door on the west side of the house.

Outside Glendunning House is approached through electrically operated wrought iron gates with thistle motifs which are set between brick built pillars with fitted traditional style street lamps. The drive crosses a bridge over the Glendey Burn before sweeping through the front garden and up to the front of the house where there is ample parking. It continues to the east of the house around to the rear where there is a double garage and two further single garages, all of which have electric up and over doors. There is also a great deal of parking to the rear of the house. The main gardens sit to the front and are south facing. A path from the front of Glendunning House leads through the lawned area to a pond which sits in the heart of the garden. The path splits, passing either side of the pond, and is lit by traditional street lamps and surrounded by well stocked flower beds and borders holding a variety of mature shrubs and plants. The path continues over a bridge before completing its circuit. Beyond the pond is a further lawned area and a bank of rhododendrons and young trees with the Bogle Burn behind. To the east of the house are further plantings of young trees and shrubs. To the rear of the house there is a further lawned area and a drying green with a variety of mature coniferous trees defining the northernmost boundary. Adjacent to the garage complex there is also a greenhouse.
