Irving Geddes Agent Valuation of this property is £350,000
Irving Geddes are delighted to offer for sale this unique and historic detached dwelling, enjoying a wonderful location sitting alongside & overlooking the stunning Keltney Burn. The grounds extend to over 0.5acre, and include a charming 150m riverside walk, over which the property enjoys fishing rights. The land stretches from the middle of the burn at the north of the property to the road bridge through Keltneyburn to the south, and includes ownership of the Stewart Memorial which stands aside the bridge. Known as the “Historian of the Highlands”, David Stewart of Garth joined the Black Watch in 1789 and was commissioned to write a history of the Regiment, published in 1822.
Newly refurbished and beautifully presented, this 19th Century former library and reading room was originally an estate cottage and now enjoys its fourth incarnation as a delightful home. Previously the village hall from the 1950’s & laterally derelict, it was thankfully brought back to life by Blairish Restoration. In addition to a beautiful and contemporary redecoration, new shower rooms and kitchen have been fitted. Sitting in its own “fairy dell” above the burn, viewable from a large decked platform, the C listed gem boasts a notable library/sitting room, with stained glass, wood-burner, original bookcase with leaded glass, wood panelled walls, and the vaulted coombed ceiling complete with ornate plasterwork.
The immaculate accommodation comprises on the ground floor; hall with under-stair storage, kitchen open to dining/garden room with access to the viewing deck, lounge/reading room, shower room and bedroom with access to the external timber deck. There are 2 further double bedrooms and further shower room on the upper floor. The external area consists of private parking to the front, a wrap-around deck adjoining the property and additional decked patio with attractive dry stone wall bordering. Steps lead down to the burn and a path runs alongside. Two flat sections of river frontage may provide suitable areas for the installation of a garden studio/study.
The Old Library is a true ‘one-off’ and the owners bring it to the market with a heavy heart, with a new employment opportunity triggering a relocation. An historic rural idyll likely to have broad appeal. Early interest is recommended.
