Greenyards Cottage sits in an idyllic rural position with breathtaking views over rolling countryside to the high peaks of the Trossachs. It is a traditionally built, pink-harled cottage surrounded by generous gardens and has been imaginatively modernised and extended to create a charming family home.
The property is reached via a short access road from the B824 which runs west from the Keir roundabout towards Doune.
Internally, it comprises a large kitchen with sitting room and dining area, a spacious lounge, a sun-porch, a boot-room and a downstairs WC. Upstairs, there are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The main entrance through the original front door leads to the lounge and dining area. French doors give access to the family room attached to the kitchen, which is a generous, bright room with slate flooring and windows on three sides, perfect for comfortable sofas and family gatherings.
Two steps lead up to the kitchen, which benefits from a large central island which provides excellent storage and accommodates an AEG five-burner gas hob with an electric under-counter double oven. The kitchen is fitted with a mix of off-white units, tall cupboards and wood-effect counters. It is further equipped with a large fridge-freezer, integrated dishwasher and washing machine which are included in the sale.
A semi-glazed door opens out to a small porch and a WC. A back door opens up from the boot-room to the rear deck with its spectacular mountain views to the west.
The fabulous lounge with a formal dining area is a beautiful, spacious room with solid oak flooring, a large wood burner in a black slate hearth and is a cosy area attached to the elegant formal dining room. An ideal bright space for entertaining or family occasions, with windows on both sides and French doors opening out to the deck beyond, this part of the house rewards you with magnificent views to rolling countryside and the Braes of Doune.
An arch leads from the sitting room to the sun porch, the front door and original entrance to the cottage. This lovely south-facing room also demonstrates the imaginative approach taken to the modernisation of the house, as it thoughtfully incorporates a historic stone doorway from the original house dating back to the original build.
The stairway leads to three double bedrooms, all of which have beautiful countryside views. The main bedroom is a lovely bright room with two large Velux windows providing a subtly different yet equally attractive aspect towards the Trossachs.
The second bedroom enjoys a dual aspect facing north and south. Lovely and bright, it is a peaceful room with plenty of space.
Bedroom three faces south and is another good-sized room.
The landing and all three bedrooms benefit from solid oak flooring.
The family bathroom is fitted with a white suite comprising a bath, wash-hand basin and WC, with a separate mains-powered shower in a corner cubicle.
Outside, the house is surrounded by a large private inner garden which is fully enclosed by a beech hedge and is mainly laid to lawn bounded with flower beds and herbaceous borders. The outer garden which contains a generous parking area is also dog proof and fully enclosed with a gated fence, and bounded by a beech and Cupressus hedge. It is mainly gravelled and along with the formal box hedge, defined flower bed and lawn provides an attractive entrance to the cottage which also leads to the woodstores.
The house is double glazed throughout, and warmth is provided by a mains gas-powered central-heating system and a Nestor Martin 8KW wood burning stove.

LOCATION
Greenyards Cottage is located just off B824 which runs west from the Keir Roundabout towards Doune which is roughly three miles away. The village of Doune is located around seven miles west of Stirling. The village provides a variety of shops including a Post Office, a chemist, the Woodside hotel and restaurant, cafes, health centre, dress/gift shops, and churches. The highly regarded primary school and nursery school are both situated in the village. There is a play park and numerous walks around the famous Doune castle, ponds and low-lying hills.
Equally, Dunblane village centre is roughly a three miles drive (one mile on foot) and boasts primary and secondary schools with first-class reputations and possesses good leisure facilities with a challenging 18-hole golf course, a leisure club with swimming pool, and numerous other sports and social clubs, including the local tennis club and excellent Dunblane Youth and Sports Centre.
Dunblane is home to the award-winning Tilly Tearoom, The Riverside, Nick Nairn’s Kailyard and a selection of other excellent bars, cafes and independent retailers. James’ famous speciality coffee bar is particularly close and is within easy access by foot along the public footpath. With its easy access to the road and rail network covering central Scotland and beyond, Dunblane remains a very desirable area with house hunters.
Running close to the house the recently upgraded tarmac cycle track provides easy safe off-road access to Dunblane city centre and in particular the High School which is only 15 minutes’ walk. It forms part of the main national cycle route allowing easy access to Doune, Callander, Killin, Loch Tay and beyond.

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
