Beautifully appointed and highly individual country house, set within 5.11 acres, on the eastern edge of Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, with mature, landscaped gardens, including a pond, open paddocks and outbuildings.
Balwill Cottage is a beautifully appointed and highly individual country house, enjoying a wonderfully private, rural setting, on the eastern edge of the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, while remaining exceptionally well placed for access to Stirling, Milngavie and Glasgow. Set within approximately 5.11 acres, the property combines the charm and presence of a traditional Scottish country home, with a flexible, thoughtfully reconfigured interior and outstanding outdoor space.
Approached via timber gates and a sweeping driveway that curves around a striking central pond, the house sits within mature, landscaped gardens that immediately convey a sense of space, privacy and arrival. Beyond the formal gardens lie open paddocks and outbuildings, making the property ideally suited to equestrian interests or, equally, for simply enjoying a semi-rural lifestyle, with room to breathe.
The house itself extends to around 3,071 sq. ft. and is presented in fantastic condition, with the current owners having carefully reconfigured the internal layout to suit modern family living, while retaining character throughout. Traditional finishes sit comfortably alongside contemporary upgrades, including double glazing, oil-fired central heating (part underfloor), excellent storage and high-quality craftsmanship.
The accommodation is formed over two levels and offers a particularly versatile arrangement. From the main entrance, there is a broad welcoming reception hallway, with ground-floor WC off and staircase access up to a generous double bedroom, with built-in wardrobes and beautifully appointed four-piece ensuite bathroom. There is a small landing, with large storage off.
To the right of the entrance hall, on the ground floor, is the real heart of the home, comprised of a formal dining room, adjacent family room, with striking vaulted ceilings and focal point fireplace, and a wonderfully appointed modern kitchen, fitted with a range of quality units, integrated appliances, range cooker and a central island. The kitchen is complemented by a separate utility room, with direct access outside, which is a particularly useful and practical feature given the superb rural setting.
Leading off to the left of the main reception hall is a lovely inner hall, with reception area, a beautiful principal lounge, with vaulted ceilings, triple aspect and focal point open fireplace, a laundry room, with dryer and washing machine housed in the cupboards, enhancing practicality, large storage cupboard, a generous ground-floor bedroom, with en-suite bathroom, and further staircase, leading up to two further well-proportioned bedrooms, both enjoying pleasant outlooks across the surrounding countryside and served by a beautifully appointed family bathroom. There is additional storage off the upper hall.
Externally, the formal gardens extend to approximately 0.82 acres and are beautifully landscaped, with lawns, established shrub beds, stone walls and specimen trees, providing colour and interest throughout the year. A substantial 4.29 acre paddock sits beyond, ideal for ponies or horses, and is complemented by timber stables, with three boxes and a separate field shelter.
Further outbuildings include a substantial summer house/office, positioned to enjoy elevated views over the grounds. This space is fully powered, connected for broadband and telephone use, heated by a log-burning stove and opens onto a large decked terrace.
Despite its peaceful setting, Balwill Cottage is exceptionally well located for amenities. Balfron, Buchlyvie, Kippen and Aberfoyle are all within a short drive and provide a wide range of shops, cafes, schooling and community facilities, with Balfron offering particularly well-regarded primary and secondary education. Stirling is easily accessible and provides extensive shopping, leisure and cultural attractions, while Milngavie offers regular rail services to Glasgow and Edinburgh. Both Glasgow and Edinburgh airports are also within easy reach.
Overall, Balwill Cottage is a rare and highly appealing country home, offering privacy, flexibility and exceptional outdoor space, all within reach of excellent amenities and commuter links. A property that must be viewed to be fully appreciated.
