Description
Loaningdale House, which was built in the mid 19th century, is an attractive and spacious country house with generously proportioned rooms arranged over two main floors. The house has undergone a programme of sympathetic restoration over the last few years and now offers comfortable accommodation with lots of traditional charm. There are excellent entertaining spaces on the ground floor and upstairs there are further reception rooms and five bedrooms.
To the rear of the house is an extensive courtyard which has been incorporated into the main house. There is also a separate flat which is now in need of modernising.
Also linking to the main house is the events space which could be suitable for a variety of uses. There is a fully functioning kitchen with adjacent café over the ground floor and mezzanine levels; accessible WCs are nearby. As well as an entrance hall from the courtyard there is a large auditorium / sports hall and a dance studio along with offices and stores.
Behind the auditoriums are two detached classrooms as well as further garages and store rooms.
There is also a substantial accommodation block built in the early 1960s extending to about 13,000 sq
ft on two main floors with staff flats, dormitories, bathrooms and a large commercial kitchen and dining
room.
Loaningdale is set in delightful grounds extending to about 10.2 acres with a large open area used as
playing fields with an attractive backdrop of trees and woodland.
The property, previously used as an outdoor education centre, represents an exciting opportunity for further development or adaptation of the existing buildings for a wide variety of uses, subject to local authority approvals.
Location
Biggar is a thriving former market town situated in the Upper Clyde Valley, a stone’s throw from the Scottish Borders. It is well connected to both motorway and major roads being only 30 miles from Edinburgh and has long been a popular commute for those seeking country living within easy access of the city.
Glasgow is less than 50 miles away meaning both cities can be reached in under an hour. The M74 offers easy access south. Biggar offers a regular bus service to Lanark and Edinburgh. The nearest railway station is at Lanark with regular trains to Glasgow, and also 9 miles distant at Carstairs Junction where there is a main line rail link to Edinburgh.
The High Street boasts an excellent range of general stores, speciality shops, cafés and restaurants. Biggar has a golf course, boating pond and tennis courts, along with bowling and rugby clubs. In addition, there are various clubs and associations ranging from bridge to amateur dramatics, music to rambling, as well as the prize-winning Museum of Biggar and Upper Clydesdale. Biggar also boasts the famous Biggar Puppet Theatre and the popular, family-friendly, Biggar Little Festival which is held in October. In terms of education, there is a popular playgroup, as well as both primary and secondary schools.
