DESCRIPTION
Laraben Farmhouse comprises a traditional stone built 3 bedroom and 2 reception room house with kitchen, utility room, bathroom and shower room, arranged over two floors under a pitched slate roof. The building has until recently been used for commercial purposes. Immediately to the north of the farmhouse lies a traditional stone built steading which provides scope for development subject to obtaining the necessary consents. The subjects are located in attractive garden ground and are bounded to the north by agricultural land. The property enjoys a rural location with excellent views across the surrounding countryside. The house extends to approximately 1,738 sq.ft (161.50 sq.m) and the outbuildings extend to approximately 2,841 sq.ft (264 sq.m).
The property is accessed via a private track which leads from the A 811 immediately to the south.
The property benefits from a mains supply of electricity, a mains water supply and there is a private septic tank serving the house.
The property sits in a plot extending to approximately 0.81 acres and benefits from an established garden

The subjects are located in open countryside and do not have a specific planning allocation in the Stirling Council Local Development Plan. However, we are of the view that there may be scope for alternative use such as development of the steading for residential, self-catering use or office accommodation, subject to obtaining the necessary consents.
