The Space
Established in 1849, this 35 room heritage-listed Scottish baronial castle is located on four acres of manicured gardens. A breathtaking blend of 16th century English, Scottish and French architecture, this location has been carefully maintained to preserve its historic significance. The blue-stone walls quarried on the estate feature an eloquent yellow gravel finish while steep pitched roofs with overhanging corner turrets emphasise the grandeur of this Victorian Tudor style home. Candle snuffer rooflines complete its elegant appearance in true baronial fashion.
This sprawling estate features seven beautifully appointed bedrooms, two fully equipped kitchens, five servant’s quarters, its own billiard parlour, an idyllic schoolroom and an elegant drawing-room complete with library. Spaces also include multiple dining/entertaining areas including a grand ballroom with an elaborate chandelier and bay windows facing the garden and a stunning winding feature staircase. Captivating original features include patterned tiling in the bathrooms, a beautiful claw foot bath and an antique IXL wood stove in the kitchen. Add to this an array of outbuildings consisting of a bluestone butchery and dairy, lamp room, boot-room, coachhouse, stables, wool-shed, shearing sheds plus machine shed, this estate is nothing short of remarkable. With its beautifully manicured grounds, majestic oaks and pines plus a statement driveway - it’s clear why this marvellous location is a true stand out.
