Newton Barns was built for the current owners in 2001. The house faces west overlooking the gardens and meadow. The house includes 2 reception rooms, 6 bedrooms (2 ensuite) and a family bathroom. Doors lead out from both the sitting room and music room to a verandah with
a west facing patio. There is a large detached garage with workshop space. The mature gardens which were professionally designed, are a key feature at Newton Barns with views over open fields to the Lomond Hills. Laid out in over 1 acre, they include lawns, island beds, an extensive rhododendron border, choice shrubs, specimen trees and a conifer planted rockery with trickling stream.

There are also a greenhouse, raised beds and cold frames. Beyond the formal gardens there is a meadow extending to about 1.98 acres which could be used as a pony paddock,
with a small orchard and deer fenced vegetable plot. The policies extend to about 3.39 acres in total with right of access for private entrance from the main road.
Newton Barns is an attractive modern family home overlooking 3 acres of landscaped gardens and meadow. The house is approached off the main road (Mournipea road) via a shared private driveway terminating in a large enclosed parking area in front of the garage to the side of the house.
The frontages of the house and garage are faced in stone, the remaining walls being harled beneath pitched tiled roofs. The house's internal features include a curved porch entrance, a large dining kitchen with aga, a sitting room with exposed beams, bespoke fireplace and doors leading out to
a verandah. There is also an adjoining music room/dining room again with doors leading outside. Upstairs there is a lovely galleried landing with custom made bookcase and two large velux windows creating lots of natural light throughout. The principal suite includes a balconette overlooking the gardens, together with a dressing room area complete with ensuite shower room.

Gardens and Outbuildings
Immediately to the side of the house, there is a large detached double garage with twin automated roller doors (9.50m x 6.27m). This also includes a workshop area and storage for garden machinery and equipment. Doors open out from both the sitting room and music room to an attractive verandah and a west facing sheltered patio area beyond. The gardens slope down from the northern
boundary and comprise an extensive rhododendron border to the east, a copse with Himalayan birch and Japanese acer, lawns interspersed with garden beds, and specimen trees. To the side of the house, a path leads through a conifer planted rockery with pumped stream to a greenhouse, cold frames and raised beds. The lawns are well maintained using a robotic mower. Beyond the formal
gardens there is a newly created vegetable plot (27m x 10m) enclosed by a deer fence. In addition there is an attractive open meadow, with some fruit trees, which runs down to the road boundary. Extending to about 1.98 acres, it could be fenced off to create a pony paddock. The Pitmedden Forest
forms the northern boundary providing shelter and privacy into which a private entrance gate leads to a network of interesting walking trails.
