Luxury home with apartment within commuting distance of Glasgow and Edinburgh, with nearly an acre of land

With Scotland’s million pound property market offering everything from apartments in Edinburgh to a farm in the Highlands, this executive home offers the best of both worlds

The lucky buyer will get so much more for their money by moving out of Edinburgh or Glasgow

Buying a property, even at a smidge over £1 million pounds, often comes with compromise – a designer address, but no parking; stunning views, but no transport links, or a whole lot of land, but an eye-watering amount of investment required on the bricks and mortar.

But Bridges Properties are delighted to bring a modern executive property to market that offers pretty much the whole package.

The exclusive home has lots to offer

Step inside

The first thing to capture the eye is the stunning statement staircase – it’s a beautiful oak wonder that splits in two, taking you up to the four bedrooms beyond, each with their own en-suite.

The ground floor is absolutely flooded with light; there’s ample room for family life and for entertaining, with a large lounge, stylish kitchen, dining room, snug and cinema room with bar.

Above the double garage is a self-contained two bedroom apartment with living, dining and kitchen space.
