1. Waterside Farm
The property was built on the site of a former farmhouse and stands as a generously-proportioned home, with more than 11,000sq ft space, and has been decorated to an exceptional standard, thanks to the efforts of its owner, Linda Reid, who happens to be an interior designer. She recalls several attempts at purchasing the original house after she and her husband, Eric, had been left awestruck at the location. Linda recalls: “We tried to buy it about 29 years ago, but the owner never turned up each time, so after three attempts we gave up. “In the end, he had been away and came back to see all the pipes had burst in the house, so he phoned us up. It had been a disaster because it had been completely flooded and it was like a ruin. “We rebuilt it and extended it on all sides, so it is partly a new house and partly an old house.”
2. Waterside Farm
Waterside Farm’s entrance hall leads to a large dining hall, with double doors opening to a drawing room with a beamed vaulted ceiling and library. However, the heart of the home is formed by its rear open-plan kitchen and breakfast area, which has elegant doors opening directly to the property’s outdoor space, and views over the mature garden. On the opposite side of the ground floor is an impressively large indoor swimming pool with dedicated changing rooms, plus gym facilities, as well as a billiards room and study.
3. Waterside Farm
The property – which features natural stone, a grey slate roof, and a charming turreted entrance – is surrounded by rolling countryside, yet is just ten miles south of Glasgow city centre. Four acres of grounds wrap around the property to form thriving garden spaces, while the rest have been rented out to livestock farmers.
