Newholm of Culter was designed by the renowned heritage architect David Willis and completed in 2002. This rare and elegant modern house provides generous and versatile family sized accommodation. A particularly fine and unique feature is the impressive reception hall. The space is currently used as an open plan drawing room and dining room and is open to the gallery above. The spacious gallery is used as a library with a study area at one end and a peaceful sitting area at the other. The large windows at ground and first floor flood the area with light as well as ensuring undisturbed view across the garden. On the ground floor the east facing rooms have French doors leading out onto the paved terrace. This provides an excellent extension to the living space and makes for easy access for al fresco dining as well as enjoying the surrounding gardens. The house benefits from 5 well-proportioned bedrooms, three of which have en suite facilities. Newholm of Culter boasts fibre internet with speeds of up to 1GB/second. This, plus the dedicated study areas, makes it ideal for working from home and/or commuting.GARDEN AND GROUNDSThe grounds at Newholm of Culter are very impressive. A gravel drive leads to a parking/turning area. The grounds in front of the house are laid to lawn. Beyond the lawn is a gorgeous small Arboretum planted with a diverse range of trees and shrubs and providing year round interest and shelter. Behind the house is the more formal garden. The area has large beds that have been used for vegetable growing as well as areas of impressive and decorative beds. The area is interspersed with mown paths and bordered by a mature beech hedge on the eastern boundary. A meadow, extending to about 0.8 acres is fenced and is suitable for a variety of uses. Outbuildings include a row of brick stabling, incorporating a tack room and five stalls plus an open timber store. There is also a polytunnel and the aluminium frame of a greenhouse. The adjoining 3.2 acre field is available by separate negotiation. This offers the potential to create an excellent equestrian property.SITUATIONNewholm of Culter is set back from the road on the northern fringes of Coulter, a conservation village in South Lanarkshire.
