It has been thoughtfully refurbished to retain the charm of a classic country home.<br/><br/>The ground floor begins with an entrance hall which leads to all the ground floor reception rooms. The drawing room, with its lovely garden views, is enhanced by a conservatory extension with overhead velux windows, and is flooded with natural light. The dining room, with a welcoming wood burning stove set within an attractive fireplace, flows seamlessly into a further sitting room. The principal bedroom suite is positioned on the ground floor offering generous storage and a well appointed en suite bathroom. At the heart of the home lies a superb country style kitchen with ample floor and wall units, a cosy AGA, island unit with induction hob amongst other integrated appliances, and direct access to a rear patio and gardens. <br/><br/>Upstairs there are four well proportioned bedrooms, one with an en suite, alongside a home office/playroom and a family bathroom. <br/><br/>Included in the sale is a charming detached stone-built cottage. Cuilt Cottage provides an excellent residence or turnkey holiday rental (subject to local authority licence) offering accommodation over two floors comprising a bright sitting room overlooking the grounds, two double bedrooms, stylish kitchen/breakfast room and two bathrooms. <br/><br/>Beyond the main house and cottage there are extensive outbuildings including a garage, workshop and various storage sheds. <br/><br/>Set within private mature grounds, the gardens are mostly lawned with planted borders and trees and there is also a hard tennis court.<br/><br/><b>Location</b><br/><br/>Cuilt Farm sits on the outskirts of the beautiful and highly desirable village of Blanefield which lies at the foot of the Campsie Fells near the renowned West Highland Way.<br/><br/>The centre of Glasgow (14 miles) can be reached in under half an hour by car in normal driving conditions or by train from Milngavie (6 miles).
