Alan Gall thinks:
This tastefully modernised cottage combines modern living with country cottage charm.

Sidehead Farm Cottage Equestrian and Stud is an outstanding opportunity for a private equestrian facility or as a business. The converted byre has been tastefully modelled to offer great country living and the equestrian facilities are outstanding.

Alan Gall loves:
An impressive renovation from traditional farm byre to comfortable cottage. Feature Cowshed in the bathrooms as a nod to its roots.

Within walking distance of the conservation village of Dunlop, it’s rural living at its best. Yet you’re only 30 minutes from Glasgow’s vibrant City Centre when business and bright lights call.

The entrance hallway is impressive, with a light and airy double height ceiling and original beams. Wooden flooring underfoot and neutral tones gives this space a rather chic Scandi vibe.

Cream cabinetry contrasts beautifully with wooden worktops in the modern dining kitchen, but the star of the show is the magnificent range cooker. Pull up a bar stool and enjoy a casual brunch at the breakfast bar. There’s room for a farmhouse table as well, or choose to make this area into a family snug with comfy sofas. Double windows fill the space with light and make the space even more inviting. The separate utility room keeps laundry days in check and, with outside access, it’s great for muddy paws and wellington boots.

Escape to the cosy lounge for peace and tranquillity and indulge in a little me-time whilst enjoying views over the garden. And, with views extending over the courtyard, the home office is the ideal work and study space.

The principal suite is capacious, with a range of windows providing a sublime view over the courtyard and countryside. There’s oodles of storage space and the en suite boasts a bath when only bubbles will do. You’ll also find a large double bedroom on the ground floor with a rear garden vista, together with the family bathroom, with shower for quick starts, and bath, for when time allows. There’s a handy downstairs WC too.

Upstairs is a further bedroom with a stunning beamed ceiling and generous en suite bathroom, also featuring a bath for long, lazy wallows. There’s storage aplenty – in fact, we challenge you to fill it!

The pièce de résistance is the outside space. If equestrian is your thing, you’re in the right place. Professional standard facilities include multiple stables, including fowling boxes, a 50m x 27m floodlit sand and rubber arena, and a number of newly fenced paddocks – most already equipped with auto-water feeders.

The garden is large, mature and well-manicured with open views across the rolling countryside. It’s the perfect spot to kick back and relax, or entertain as the mood takes you. There’s acre upon acre of private farmland and woodland to explore too, along with a variety of outbuildings ripe for conversion, subject to all the usual planning consents. Channel your inner Arthur Parkinson with a variety of mixed breeds in the secure chicken coop. Freshly laid eggs for breakfast, anyone?
