Monreith House is a rare Category A‑listed Georgian mansion set within vast policy grounds and centered on the White Loch of Myrton. The principal house provides grand reception rooms, a bow‑fronted library and a mixture of self‑contained flats and service accommodation across four floors, alongside three let cottages and extensive woodland. The setting delivers privacy, loch frontage with a boat house and significant scope for income from lets, events or country‑house uses.
The estate extends to about 327.87 acres and includes formal gardens, mature mixed woodland, a private kirk and internal access tracks. The house retains many fine 18th/19th‑century decorative features and high ceilings, making it attractive to buyers seeking historic character and a lifestyle property with heritage value.
Practical considerations are substantial. Parts of the building are currently configured and presented as six apartments; the upper floors have been disconnected from mains wiring and the EPC is F. Japanese knotweed has been identified on the estate and a treatment plan is in place. As a Category A listed property, alterations will be strictly controlled and repairs and conservation work are likely to be costly and require specialist input.
This lot will suit an experienced buyer or investor with appetite for heritage restoration and estate management — someone who values exceptional setting and long‑term potential while accepting significant conservation responsibilities, infrastructure work and slow digital connectivity in a remote coastal location.
