West Miln, for many year a dilapidated farmhouse, has been a working family home for more than a decade. The attention to detail and the quality of the work in restoring the property and its surroundings was first class and it now makes a beautifully situated house in the pretty surroundings of Perthshire.
The house is designed around a private cobbled courtyard which leads up to the front door of the property. The house itself has been redeveloped using the highest quality materials including Portuguese limestone floors, marble fireplaces and an Aga.
West Miln boasts a hall, sitting room, library, dining room, cloakroom, dining kitchen, utility room and two en suite bedrooms. The guest cottage has a hall, sitting room/bedroom and two further bedrooms with en suite bathrooms. The property also has an enchanting courtyard garden, superb views and a traditional stone barn and cart shed.
To the east of the property is an enclosed garden with a lawn surrounded by herbaceous borders and flower beds which are a riot of colour in summer months. To the south is a sheltered cobbled patio with direct access through double doors from the sitting room and extensive lawns. To the west is a large area down to grass with blossoming fruit trees and scenic views to the west and to the north of the house the enclosed courtyard has honeysuckle, clematis and rose-covered trellising sheltering the flower beds and herbaceous borders, all in around 1.5 acres.
West Miln lies in the centre of the Glenearn Estate about two miles from Bridge of Earn and is surrounded by stunning countryside. It’s also just minutes away from the main A9 motorway which provides easy access to Perth (6 miles) and Edinburgh (43 miles). Bridge of Earn itself provides daily amenities.
