Secluded but accessible, discover the hidden beauty of The Old Farmhouse at Barrhill Farm, nestled between the villages of Torrance and Lennoxtown. This renovated and re-imagined home dates originally from the 1800's and delivers both contemporary comforts and convenience alongside all the original charm of its humble farmhouse origins.

Surrounded by rolling countryside, discover Barrhill Farm up the sweeping shared driveway, carpeted in daffodils in springtime. Pull through the gated entrance where ample parking is available on the gravel driveway.

Ahead, the traditional old farmhouse with its deep-set windows invites you in. Entering via the quaint front porch, two sash and case windows give a bright and airy welcome, with stone flagged flooring, warmed by underfloor heating offering comfort to guests as they remove their shoes.

Throughout this home, neutral décor, creams and whites, combine with the natural exposed stonework and rustic beams to create a country-style calm.

Wander through into an entrance hallway with a traditional high ceiling and light oak flooring extending underfoot. Pass bedroom five on your right where there is ample space for a double bed. Consider its potential as an office, music room, or crafting studio.

Turn left and find the utility room, furnished with a sink and cupboards and space for a washer and dryer.

Also located along this hallway is the unique spa like family bathroom fitted in elegant traditional style. Featuring a roll top bath with shower head attachment, soak away your cares with a glass of bubbly and enjoy the view across open countryside. A large, walk-in shower with rainfall head, and a wash basin and WC complete the look while warmth emanates from underfloor heating beneath the cream toned tiles.

Back in the entrance hallway, via a split barn style door is the lavishly sized living room. Dressed in shades of creamy white and mulled wine, a stone inglenook fireplace accommodates a multi-fuel stove for added warmth and welcome. Oak flooring underfoot, with windows to both sides, this room has a peaceful, calming feel. Traditional exposed beams juxtapose harmoniously with inset spotlighting, blending past with present.

Room for a generous sized dining table to the rear of the lounge makes this the perfect place for entertaining, throw open the Danish bi-fold doors and allow your dinner guests to spill out on to the landscaped sandstone patio and enjoy the warmth of the evening sun while admiring the incredible garden views beyond.

Next door to the lounge lies a handy fourth bedroom, this room currently accommodates a desk and office chair and features ample fitted storage.

Flow back along the landing where the sanded oak flooring leads you into a generous family lounge giving access to the kitchen, the boot room, and the upper level. The perfect place to curl up under a blanket with a good book as the multi fuel burner roars away, infusing heat throughout the room.

Peek into the boot room, ideal for those returning from a muddy run through the fields and over the fells, or for mucky dogs returning from morning walks.

Step through into the spacious dining kitchen, light flows in through windows to the front, side, and rear, creating a cheery, bright atmosphere, note the high quality of the oak windowsills throughout the home.

Exposed stone harmonises with a whisper of pale blue walls complimenting the large Belfast sink and adding to the rustic country charm of the kitchen.

Retracing your steps through the family room take the L-shaped staircase up, turning right into the bountifully sized master suite. The private hallway reveals a dressing room brimming with storage on the right and a spacious ensuite dressed in neutral tones to the left. This refreshing room contains a walk-in shower cubicle with separate bath. There is also a wash basin with vanity unit storage, heated towel rail and WC.

Through the stone archway, admire the space, light and peaceful ambience where relaxation awaits in the master suite.
Beams adorn the vaulted ceiling overhead, whilst Velux windows open seamlessly to connect you with the incredible garden views beyond.

Also, on this level along the spacious hall saturated with light through the Velux windows, find 2 further bedrooms, currently decorated to suit young occupants.

If peace and tranquillity is what you are looking for, The Old Farmhouse and its grounds will certainly deliver.

A mixed native hedge to the boundary adds a thicket of further separation from the neighbouring fields.

Garden and grounds of circa 2 acres have the potential for use as grazing, recreation, or equestrian/canine use with unspoiled views of the Campsie Fells.

Harvest your own apples for pies, crumbles, and chutneys from the kitchen garden at the front of the house. Grow your own soft fruits in the custom-built planters set within the Orchard, whose current crop has included redcurrants, blackcurrants, gooseberries raspberries and strawberries.

Securely gated this garden is perfect for both children and pets.
