A beautifully rebuilt 1812 farmhouse of real character, set in substantial gardens just outside Kilbarchan in rural Renfrewshire.
Property Description
Originally built in 1812 and purchased as a shell in the early 2000s, this gorgeous, converted farmhouse has been completely rebuilt from the ground up. It now presents as an exceptional three-bedroom home of genuine warmth and quality, set in rural Renfrewshire just outside Kilbarchan.
The property is entered through a welcoming front reception hall, with the lounge immediately beyond. This impressive principal living space is defined by a magnificent, vaulted ceiling with open beams and a large wood burner as the natural focal point. The formal dining area sits open plan to the lounge, creating a generous, sociable heart to the house. Above, a small mezzanine overlooks the space and is currently arranged as a TV snug, though it has also served as a guest bedroom in previous years.
The kitchen is fitted in a contemporary style with base and wall units, a Belfast sink, a peninsula island and a seven-stovetop range-style gas cooker. The principal bedroom is on the ground floor: a large double with a three-piece ensuite. Upstairs there are two further generous double bedrooms. Also on the ground floor is a four-piece family bathroom with a large walk-in shower and a freestanding bath, together with a separate utility cupboard housing fitted laundry appliances.
Externally, the house sits within substantial garden grounds to the front and rear. Access is via a shared entrance, with private parking both to the front and the rear. An outhouse has been insulated and wired and was previously used as a home office. A large decking area sits beside lawns that make up much of the garden, giving the property both privacy and a strong sense of rural setting.

Local Area
Set just south-west of Kilbarchan and roughly halfway to Lochwinnoch, the house enjoys a rural Renfrewshire setting with both villages close at hand. Kilbarchan is a historic weaving village with a primary school, pharmacy, dental practice, local shops and well-known pubs such as The Trust Inn and Habbie’s, together with landmarks including the Steeple and Weaver’s Cottage; it also offers bus links into Johnstone and Glasgow, with Howwood train station 1 mile away and both Milliken Park and Johnstone stations nearby. The A737 gives a straightforward run to the M8 and Glasgow, about 15 miles away. A short drive in the other direction, Lochwinnoch sits on Castle Semple Loch within Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park and has its own railway station on the Ayrshire Coast Line, an RSPB reserve, Castle Semple Country Park with water sports and cycle paths, a golf club, village shops and cafés, and pubs including The Corner Bar, The Brown Bull and The Three Churches.
