Located on a working farm, this single storey cottage located in North Lanarkshire is a great base for family or friends who are looking to escape. The farm is surrounded by fantastic forestry walks and mining heritage. There are local amenities within a mile of the property, and the local gin distillery, which is within 3 miles, is well worth a visit. In the springtime ,watch the lambs in the surrounding fields or head to The Pentland Hills (18 miles away), a range of hills around twenty miles in length, which run southwest from Edinburgh towards Biggar and the upper Clydesdale. Fancy a day of retail therapy? You are spoilt for choice, head to Livingstone Designer Outlet (12 miles) or into Glasgow or Edinburgh, both within 30 miles, with fabulous shops, culture, and nightlife. On a rainy day, why not try Edinburgh indoor climbing arena, only 18 miles away.

As you walk into this spacious property, you will find yourself in the bright open entrance hall. All the rooms lead off from this entrance, giving the house a pleasant and easy welcoming flow. There are three spacious bedrooms, two of which feature en-suite bathrooms, and there is a Jack and Jill style family bathroom which offers a third bathroom facility. The kitchen is well equipped and is located next to the lounge/dining room. The lounge has dual views across the garden and fields. It is a great room to kick back and relax, enjoy a movie on the Smart TV after a day out exploring or just enjoy a good book and a glass of wine or a board game with the whole family!

There is a spacious garden to the front of the property with lawn and gravel parking for up to four cars. There is also a small rear yard with seating, overlooking the open fields.
