Ranfurly House is arguably the most impressive home in Bridge of Weir. This spectacular, sunny and bright, 5 bedroom Victorian villa dates back to the 1880s and is set in a prominent, elevated position overlooking Old Ranfurly Golf Course. The current owners have upgraded the property over the years, maintaining it to an exacting standard, whilst it still oozes period character and charm. No expense has been spared and this is immediately apparent on entering. Despite its tranquil location, it is on the doorstep of all local amenities, excellent schools and with easy access to Glasgow City Centre and Glasgow Airport which is ideal for those commuting.

The internal accommodation comprises; reception hallway with original wooden staircase. A magnificent formal lounge with original stone fireplace featuring a newly fitted log effect gas fire. A striking oval ceiling moulding, and large windows looking towards the golf course. There is a versatile family room with bay window onto the front gardens which also has a feature gas fireplace. The dining room seamlessly links through striking oak and glass doors to the large kitchen which is fitted with quality wall and floor units, integrated appliances and an island unit. The kitchen also has space for casual dining. The snooker room could be used as a further living space – ideal for larger families. Completing the ground floor is a sauna, shower room, WC/cloaks and a useful utility room.

A broad staircase leads from the main hall to the upper landing where there is a phenomenal principal bedroom with triple aspects as far as Ben Lomond and golf course views. The principal en-suite has a fresh white five piece suite including bath and separate large shower. There are four further well-proportioned double bedrooms, one of which is used as a home office. The family bathroom also features a five-piece suite and there is a further guest shower room for added convenience for a busy household. Completing the accommodation is a spiral staircase from the first floor landing that leads to a useful games room or second home office.

The specification includes gas central heating (two new boilers installed). The current owners have also installed Blairs astragal timber casement double glazed windows enhancing energy efficiency. There is a monitored alarm system for peace of mind.

The gardens are incredible and are a big feature of this family home. The sweeping gravel driveway runs through the front garden which is mainly laid to lawn as well as some mature trees and flower beds that burst with colour throughout the summer months. There is ample off-street parking for a number of cars, and there is a double garage to the side for secure parking and extra storage. To the rear there is a patio area providing a wonderful spot to enjoy dining and relaxing outside in those sunny summer evenings. A cellar give access under the property providing further storage.

Overall, Ranfurly House is a masterpiece and here lies a once-in-lifetime opportunity to acquire a dream family home to grow into over many years.
