This unique and individually designed property was converted from a farm steading in 2008. One of five properties in Cairnston Steading, it enjoys an elevated semi-rural position on the northern outskirts of Dunblane and is surrounded by rolling countryside with breath-taking views to the Braes of Doune and the high peaks of the Trossachs in the distance.
Cairnston Steading is accessed via a private drive turning off the B8033 with fields on both sides and bordered by a drystone wall and grassy verge.
The Granary is entered via a sandstone path into an attractive terracotta tiled porch and vestibule which opens out to reveal the open-plan layout of the property.
The Granary is characterised by its use of space and light, with the rooms on the open-plan ground floor flowing naturally into each other, providing generous space for family living and entertainment. Light floods in from the triple-height atrium, and windows are strategically placed to provide countryside views.
The ground-floor accommodation comprises a sitting room, dining area, kitchen, utility and cloakroom. There is also a large cupboard providing coat storage and deep storage under the stairs, accessed via the cloak cupboard.
The spacious sitting room is tastefully appointed with gallery-white walls and plush grey carpet, with French doors opening out to the well-tended gardens to the side and courtyard area to the rear. A Charnwood Cove II multifuel stove placed in a sandstone hearth guarantees that this generous space remains cosy, as well as heating the upper levels.
A step leads from the sitting room up to the raised dining area which has solid wood flooring and easily accommodates a table with settings for 10 people.
The fabulous kitchen also leads from the sitting room. Created by Ashley Ann, it combines stylish design with function, and comprises a fantastic range of high-gloss softclose units in French grey surrounding a large island, which accommodates ample undercounter cupboards, cleverly designed drawers, a Neff induction hob and a generous breakfast bar. The kitchen also benefits from a full-height pantry cupboard, separate full-size Neff fridge and freezer, wine fridge, integrated dishwasher and two Neff ovens, one of which incorporates a microwave function, with a warming drawer below. A separate water tap by Insinkerator provides instant hot water. French doors lead to the courtyard area.
Large ceramic tiles, and underfloor heating provide that hidden touch of luxury, guaranteeing cosy toes in the morning.
The utility room next door is fitted with complementing units and provides space for a washing machine, tumble dryer, and the Vaillant boiler which powers the central heating and provides hot water. There is also a services cupboard which accommodates the electrical fuses, the house sprinkler system, local area network and TV distribution centre.
A door opens from here to the entry hall, and the downstairs cloakroom which is semi tiled and fitted with a white WC, wash-hand basin and chrome heated towel rail.
Moving upstairs, you arrive at the generous mezzanine, a wonderful bright space with rustic beams, luxurious carpet and large windows on two sides providing the best of the views. This area is currently used as an additional sitting room and leads to the two large double bedrooms and family bathroom on this level.
Both bedrooms are spacious, luxurious peaceful rooms, tastefully decorated in neutral tones with plush grey carpet, double built-in wardrobes and windows over the rear courtyard.
One bedroom has the additional benefit of an ensuite shower room, which is fitted with a corner shower cubicle with an Aqualisa shower, white WC and basin with vanity, chrome towel rail and a mirrored cupboard.
The family bathroom is a haven of relaxation with a freestanding, double ended bath, separate double-size shower cubicle with rainstorm head and hand unit, and a full-height chrome radiator. A large built-in cupboard provides ample storage for the house linens and towels.
Moving upstairs to the top storey, this floor is occupied by an enormous suite comprising a generous sleeping area with four built-in mirrored wardrobes, a sitting area, and a study space, all flooded with light from Velux windows.
An ensuite is fitted with a large shower cubicle with an Aqualisa shower, large basin over a vanity and three mirrored cupboards.
Outside, the property benefits from several areas of private garden, some laid to lawn, and a fantastic, paved patio screened by an area of mature shrubs, ideal for sitting out on warmer days and enjoying the views.
The property comes with two private parking spaces, as well as ample visitor parking, and a large garage in a separate garage block.
The steading is served by a BioDisc waste treatment system which is serviced annually and emptied twice a year by Scottish Water. The communal grounds are maintained by an external contractor, financed by a fund contributed to by all residents. There is no factor.

LOCATION
Cairnston Steading is located close to Ashfield, a historic conservation hamlet situated about a mile north of Dunblane on the Allan Water. It is well placed for easy commuting via the A9, or for access to the great outdoors. An active and friendly community, it benefits from a village hall, a play park, a football field and a regular bus service. In nearby Dunblane, all local services and amenities are readily accessible; while the more extensive facilities offered in Stirling are only a ten-minute drive to the south. Dunblane’s railway station provides excellent links to Perth, Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Cairnston Steading falls within catchment for Newton Primary and Dunblane High School, both of which boast first-class reputations. Dunblane possesses good leisure facilities with a challenging eighteen-hole golf course, a private leisure club with swimming pool, numerous sports and social clubs, including the local tennis club and excellent Dunblane Youth and Sports Centre. There is an extensive Dunblane Path Network that extends up Sheriffmuir and surrounding areas providing excellent variety for dog walking. The High Street is home to the award-winning Tilly Tearoom and a selection of other excellent restaurants, bars, cafes and independent retailers. With its easy access to the road and rail network covering central Scotland and beyond, this area remains very desirable among house hunters.

Broadband availability and predicted speed
Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:
Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). 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
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
