5 Bedroom Detached House

Glencoe – A Distinctive Victorian Home Set Within Approximately One Acre

While Glencoe may be best known as the dramatic glacial valley of the Scottish Highlands, this particular Glencoe offers something altogether different – a warm, vibrant, and beautifully individual family home with a creative influence in its styling and gardens.

This handsome detached 1901 Victorian villa combines period elegance with thoughtful contemporary touches. A welcoming tiled reception hall forms the heart of the home, flanked by two classic reception rooms, each rich in character and featuring original fireplaces. The balance of old and new continues throughout, with a modern and stylish kitchen/breakfast room providing an inviting hub for everyday living and entertaining, plus the addition of a large third reception room overlooking the garden with view towards Broadway, this is currently being used as an artist’s studio. There is also a boot-room, utility room and high level flush toilet located on the ground floor.

Arranged over the first and second floors are four generous double bedrooms and two bathrooms, with the upper floors mirroring each other in layout. the fifth bedroom on the first floor currently serves as a home office but could equally function as a nursery, playroom or hobby room to suit a variety of lifestyles.

The property's appeal extends well beyond the main house in a collection of charming outbuildings including an original 1901 Pigsty , now transformed into a quirky hideaway complete with a log-burner, sofa and double bed. There is also a substantial barn measuring approximately 19' x 11', a beautifully presented summerhouse of around 15' x 14', and a large garage measuring approximately 30' x 15'. (all outbuildings excluding the pigsty, are equipped with mains light and power).Ample off-road parking completes the practical benefits.

The gardens are truly exceptional and, during the warmer months, become one of the property's defining features. Offering a rare combination of privacy, open space and natural beauty, they include productive fruit trees, extensive lawns, wildlife-friendly planting and a bonus paddock. A public footpath crosses part of the land, creating opportunities for friendly exchanges with local dog walkers, and leading to a large area beyond the garden owned and managed by the Vale Landscape Heritage Trust. A separate vehicular access to the far side of the grounds adds further versatility.

The property also has the added benefit of current planning permission for a two storey extension to the back of the dining room/side of the kitchen to include an en-suite to the main bedroom. Plans available on request.

Occupying a delightful village setting, this remarkable home represents one of the finest examples of Victorian architecture in the area. Offering approximately 1,700 sq ft of accommodation alongside around an acre of glorious grounds, Glencoe presents a rare opportunity for buyers seeking to embrace a more spacious lifestyle in a truly special setting.
