Architecture lovers, rejoice! A gorgeous, massive Grade B-listed property has just gone on the market, remarked as the “most magnificent period home in Scotland”. Greystones, the renovated home, is listed for a not-so-modest £1.75 million, boasting five bedrooms, overlooking The Knapp’s Dam beauty spot.
Located in the pretty village of Kilmacolm, the property has been renowned as an example of the ‘finest’ in conservation architecture. The home has a generous five bedrooms and five bathrooms, all with their modern touches while keeping the original features.
Greystones was built in 1913 and designed in a late Arts & Crafts style by architect J. Austen Laird. It was also extensively renovated in 2014 and recently underwent a detailed redecoration throughout, with “modern finishes paired with gothic-inspired original features”. What is more, one of the five bedrooms is a semi-self-contained suite featuring a flexible games or cinema room with exposed beams and a kitchenette.
Of course, the house is fully designed for entertaining guests, with a kitchen leading onto an expansive terrace and an informal dining space with views over the loch. There is also a courtyard with multiple outhouses, as well as an elegant formal dining room.
Gordon McGuire of Corum Property said: “Greystones is a breathtaking home, it really is something truly special. This is a home that has been loved, adored and brought to life by the current owners – it’s full of character.”
“The owner worked closely with Anna Campbell-Jones on the interior design, and the outcome is spectacular. The original features blend beautifully with pops of colour, exquisite craftsmanship and a layout that flows wonderfully.”
“Greystones presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property of considerable note in the picturesque village of Kilmacolm, one of the most coveted addresses in Scotland.”
