Dippin Lodge is built on the site of an ancient threshing mill and is an extremely desirable detached family home surrounded by glorious countryside. The property is set in substantial garden grounds, and is within easy commuting distance of Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow.
The property offers bright and flexible accommodation over three levels and has been cleverly designed to maximise the space and the views on offer. It has high quality fixtures and fittings throughout and the detached green oak, cruck frame barn is a real bonus, offering extra accommodation for guests but equally suitable for a home office or granny/teenage annexe.
Accommodation
The property is accessed by several steps which lead to the front door. Timber external doors open into a vestibule with cloaks area, and a glazed inner door then opens into the hall. The hall is open plan to the dining room, separated by only a few stairs and has a cloakroom directly off it (which is plumbed in for the installation of a WC if required). This double-height space is filled with natural light and from the dining room stairs continue to the upper floor where the drawing room is found, making this the ideal entertaining space. The drawing room is glazed on three elevations, offering wonderful views over the garden and beyond, to the picturesque countryside of the Carse of Stirling, and features an attractive open fire.
The kitchen/living room is generously proportioned and enjoys a dual aspect, French doors to the terrace and a useful deep storage cupboard. The kitchen comprises a range of solid wood units and integrated appliances include a dishwasher, fridge/freezer, electric hob, oven and grill. There is also an island with built-in breakfasting table.
The principal bedroom suite is located on the ground floor and comprises a bright bedroom with curved wall, fitted wardrobes and an en-suite bathroom, comprising bath, shower cubicle, and wash hand basin. There is a separate WC adjacent.
Stairs from the hall lead down to the lower level, where three further double bedrooms can be found. Two of the bedrooms boast built-in wardrobes while the third bedroom is zoned into two areas, with bedroom and study areas. This room has the potential to have an en-suite bathroom installed if desired.
The family bathroom is fully tiled and comprises a bath with handheld shower attachment, WC and wash hand basin.
Adjacent to the family bathroom is a useful utility room, with storage units, a sink and plumbing for a washing machine. Off the utility room is a cupboard housing the hot water tank. A door from the utility room leads into the integral double garage, with large up and over door, power and light, concrete floor and which also houses the boiler.
Outside
The property is approached along a quiet, Council adopted road, and accessed via a gated driveway offering ample parking and leading to the garaging and carport.
The garden grounds extend to approximately 0.84 acre and wrap around the house. The garden is immaculately maintained and a real credit to the owners. It is predominantly laid to lawn with flowering borders, mature trees and established shrubs and bushes. There is a sunny paved terrace located directly off the kitchen and lots of areas from which to enjoy the surrounding countryside.
Directly opposite the house is the superb English heritage green oak barn, also architect designed. This beautiful cruck frame barn is accessed via timber stairs and a verandah with fine views to the Carse of Stirling and the mountains, which lead into the open plan first floor room with vaulted ceiling and exposed beams and trusses. This impressive room has a kitchenette area and a smart en-suite shower room, so offers the ideal home office, or annexe for a dependant relative perhaps. It is also a perfect entertaining space, and has a built-in projector and drop cinema screen with surround sound. At ground level the carport can be found, along with a flexible use room that has full-size garage doors and a window to the side. This insulated room could be used for a multitude of purposes, such as a workshop, office space (Cat 5 cabled WiFi) gym or additional garaging.
It is worth noting that part of the neighbouring field may be available for sale by separate negotiation.

Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s
The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2
Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength
Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
