Summary - TEMPLELANDS COTTAGE, MUIRKIRK ROAD ML10 6RF
4 bed 2 bath Detached
Extensive landholding with stables and riding arena for equestrian or rural living.
Five-bedroom detached cottage with character features and log burner
Templelands Cottage is a substantial detached farmhouse set in a private, elevated position near Strathaven, offered with an extensive landholding ideal for equestrian, hobby-farming or family lifestyle use. The house combines character features—stonework and a lounge with a log burner—with a large, modern open-plan kitchen/diner and contemporary bathroom for comfortable everyday living.
The plot is the principal appeal: the main Lot includes about 8 acres with a gated entrance, five stables (two further stables in adjoining fields), an outdoor riding arena and a very large agricultural building. The owner is offering an additional 40 acres (Lot 2) to be sold alongside Lot 1, creating a substantial overall holding with clear potential for grazing, livery or small-scale farming.
Practical features include oil-fired central heating, double glazing, garage parking, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband. Notable drawbacks are the expensive Council Tax (Band F), reliance on oil heating, and the property’s rural location within a very deprived area which may affect local services and travel times. Any visible ceiling staining or roof-penetration concerns should be inspected and repaired where necessary.
This property will suit buyers seeking space and privacy — particularly equestrian enthusiasts or families wanting room for outdoor hobbies — and investors looking for diversified land use. The combination of living accommodation, outbuildings and large acreage offers scope for adaptation, subject to planning and necessary repairs.
