and ample opportunities for the outdoor enthusiast. The
property is located at the foot of the Ochil Hills with the
surrounding topography of the region providing excellent
opportunities for hill walking, along with other rural activities
such as pony trekking, mountain biking, fishing and shooting.
LOT 1: SHERIFFYARDS HOUSE
Sherrifyards House is an attractive country property that has
potential to be a welcoming family home. The property benefits
from commanding views over the Gartmorn Dam Reservoir and
is accompanied with a lovely south facing garden and patio
area. The house itself is a large detached country house that
consists of a white washed stone wall exterior under a tile roof.
The property offers generous and flexible accommodation
over two levels. It is thought the property dates back to the
late 19th Century, with a number of period features such as
exposed beams and traditional lime plaster throughout. There
is a spacious conservatory on the south face of the house,
offering an excellent position overlooking the surrounding
countryside. The property is reached via a shared private road
that leads to a parking area to the rear of the house. The layout
and dimensions of each room are detailed within the floor plans
below.
GARAGE
Sheriffyards House also offers a traditional stone outbuilding
under a tile roof that is currently utilised as a garage but presents
an excellent opportunity to be developed into a small studio
or office/study, subject to obtaining the necessary planning
consents.
GARDEN GROUND
There is a private landscaped, partly-walled garden area to the
south of the house, which is enclosed by several mature trees
and shrubbery. There is an ornate slabbed patio area leading
to an area laid to grass.
LOT 2: AMENITY WOODLAND AND PASTURE 41.11 Ha
(101.58 Acres)
A large area of former community woodland extending to approximately 41.11 Ha (101.58 Acres). The woodland predominantly consists of deciduous amenity trees such as Silver Birch,
Rowan and young Beech trees. There are several areas of pasture located along the eastern perimeter of the subjects which
are currently used for equestrian purposes but may present alterative uses subject to obtaining necessary consents.
The land is classified mostly as Grade 3.2 by the James
Hutton Institute with a small area of 4.2 on the land adjacent
to the Gartmorn Dam Reservoir. The woodland benefits from
an excellent network of footpaths due to its former life as
community woodland. The woodland is accessible by foot
only from Sheriffyards House via a small path which leads
south from the property to the east of the Reservoir. There is
a further right of vehicular access provided via a private road
which leads from B910 public road to the east of Grassmainston
