Ballagan House is a magnificent stone built detached country mansion house set amidst almost nine acres of beautifully kept garden grounds. With a breathtaking location at the foot of the Campsie Fells, Ballagan House is only a short distance from the centre of the village of Strathblane. Divided into five separate conversions, Ballagan House has been exceptionally well maintained by the current owners and enjoys open outlooks to the front and rear with gardens that feature a private tennis court for residents, a stream, woodland, large expanses of lawn together with extensive parking and garaging for each property. To the rear of the building, there is further storage, with private sheds for each apartment. There is also access directly from the gardens out onto the Campsie Fells with lovely woodland and hill walks, ideally suited for the outdoor enthusiast. Strathblane and Blanefield offer excellent local amenities with convenience shops, bank, pubs and restaurants and an excellent primary school. Bus services run through the village to Balfron and Glasgow. Milngavie and Bearsden are only a ten minute drive away and provide an even greater selection of amenities that include train services into the city centre. Entry to the building is controlled by a security system which opens in to a stunning entrance vestibule with ‘Terrazzo’ tiled floor which in turn has a door opening into the ground floor hallway. From here there is access via a staircase to the upper landing where the property can be found. The apartment itself extends to almost 1400 square feet and is laid out all on the level featuring magnificently proportioned rooms with high ceilings, intact cornicing and with many period details having been retained since

The main formal lounge/drawing room can be found to the front of the building taking in the lovely views southwards across sweeping lawns.
