About
Two-Bedroom Cottage with Versatile Attic Accommodation, Exceptional Gardens & Double Garage Nestled within the scenic and historic village of Leadhills, this charming and truly unique cottage offers an abundance of character, space and versatility.
Providing two comfortable bedrooms alongside a converted attic room, first-floor WC, generous living accommodation, extensive gardens and a substantial double-sized mono-block garage, this is a home that offers far more than initially meets the eye.
Stepping through the entrance, you are welcomed into the bright and inviting family living room.
Stretching almost the full length of the property, this impressive space benefits from windows to both sides, allowing natural light to flood through and creating a wonderfully bright and welcoming environment.
With ample room for comfortable seating and additional furniture, this is an ideal space for relaxing with family or entertaining guests.
At the heart of the home lies the impressive kitchen and dining area.
Exceptionally generous in size, the room provides ample space for a large dining table capable of comfortably seating up to eight people, making it a fantastic setting for family meals, entertaining and social gatherings.
The kitchen itself offers an excellent range of cabinetry and generous worktop space, providing both practicality and storage for everyday living.
Located directly adjacent to the kitchen is the useful utility room.
A particularly convenient addition, this provides further storage and practical workspace while also offering direct access to the rear garden, making it ideal for everyday family life, gardening and outdoor activities.
Completing the ground floor is the main family bathroom, conveniently positioned for both residents and guests.
Returning to the entrance hall, the main staircase rises to the first floor, where two well-proportioned bedrooms can be found.
Bedroom one is a generous double bedroom offering excellent space for a range of bedroom furniture and enjoying a comfortable, peaceful setting.
Bedroom two is currently utilised as a home office, but would equally make a cosy second bedroom, nursery, dressing room or hobby space depending upon the requirements of its new owners.
One of the property's most distinctive features is the secondary staircase, historically positioned alongside the kitchen and providing independent access to the attic level.
This unusual and highly versatile space has previously been converted by a former owner to create an additional room together with a first-floor WC.
The attic room offers considerable flexibility and could be utilised as a third bedroom, guest room, home office, studio, games room or private retreat, subject of course to any necessary consents and regulations.
The addition of a WC at this level further enhances the practicality of this unique area and gives the property an exceptional degree of versatility. Outside, the property truly comes into its own.
The extensive grounds are a rare feature for a cottage of this nature and have been thoughtfully divided into three distinct areas, each offering something different.
To the rear, the first garden area is accessed directly from the utility room and opens onto a lovely patio seating area.
This is a wonderful spot to sit back and enjoy the peaceful surroundings, take in the rolling hills and watch the sun set over the surrounding landscape.
Beyond the patio, the garden continues further up the bank, offering excellent potential for further landscaping or development to suit the needs of its new owners.
For those with green fingers, the garden is particularly appealing, with two greenhouses providing an ideal environment for growing flowers, plants, fruit and vegetables.
The mature planting and generous outdoor space create a wonderfully established garden with plenty of opportunities for gardening enthusiasts.
To the front of the property lies the second garden area, comprising a private and enclosed orchard space.
Offering a peaceful and secluded outdoor setting, this area provides another charming dimension to the grounds and could be enjoyed as a quiet seating area, orchard or additional recreational space.
The third area is home to the property's impressive double-sized garage.
Currently utilised as a professional workshop, this substantial space will appeal to those requiring extensive storage, workshop facilities, garaging or a dedicated area for hobbies and projects.
The possibilities are considerable. The surrounding garden is mature and private, featuring established trees, lawn areas and an additional storage hut.
There is plenty of room for children and pets to enjoy, while the enclosed nature of much of the garden provides an excellent balance of privacy and practicality.
Situated within the picturesque village of Leadhills, this distinctive cottage offers a rare combination of traditional charm, flexible accommodation and exceptional outdoor space.
From the generous living room and impressive kitchen-dining area to the unusual attic accommodation, multiple garden areas, greenhouses and substantial double garage, the property offers a level of versatility that is rarely found.
A truly charming home with character, potential and an abundance of outdoor space, this unique cottage is sure to appeal to buyers looking for something a little different in one of South Lanarkshire's most scenic villages.
