This charming and characterful cottage, originally built in 1746 after the Jacobite rebellion, is the last remaining plot from seven originally offered to locals for management. Situated on the southern outskirts of Callander, this property combines historical significance with modern comforts and offers easy access to the high street and local amenities.
The Lots has a history of being run as a successful B&B. Its layout, with two discreet wings, lends itself to the potential of re-establishing a holiday business or creating a private area for guests or family members.
Surrounded by mature gardens, the property is accessed via a large porch with grey slate flooring, ample coat hanging space, and a wooden door leading to the boiler room, which houses a tumble dryer, Worcester boiler, and hot water tank. This warm space is ideal for drying laundry and includes a traditional-style overhead pulley.
A single step brings you into the spacious internal hallway, featuring a useful study area and a WC. The impressive sitting room, decorated in neutral shades with complementing carpet, has windows on three sides offering views of the gardens, and double French doors that open onto the lawn with its mature fruit trees. The room also features an open fire set in a stone fireplace, providing a cosy focal point.
The hallway to the right of the sitting room leads to two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. This area can be closed off for privacy if needed. The main bedroom at the far end of the hall is a delightful king-size room with large east and south-facing windows and modern décor. Adjacent is a second family bathroom with a white bath and electric shower, a white WC and wash-hand basin, a stainless steel towel rail, and attractive modern tiling. Another double bedroom, decorated in neutral tones, includes a full-sized sink.
The dining room, located in the original part of the property, is a bright space with a large picture window overlooking the south-facing garden. This room, decorated in a delicate shade of yellow, is ideal for family meals or entertaining. From the dining room, a wooden door leads to an internal hallway with access to the garden, stairs to the upper level, the kitchen, and a large understairs cupboard.
The modern fitted kitchen, upgraded last year, is spacious with south and west-facing windows offering superb countryside views. It features grey units topped with black granite countertops, a five-burner cda induction hob with stainless Ciarra hood, Hisense electric oven, Baumatic integrated coffee machine, LG us-style fridge freezer, Bosch dishwasher, and Hotpoint washing machine. Two large pantry cupboards provide extra storage, and a central island adds workspace and a breakfast bar. The kitchen windows offer views of Ben Ledi and the garden.
Upstairs, there are two more double bedrooms, a large cupboard, and a family bathroom. One bedroom includes a built-in wardrobe with drawers and shelves and a full-sized sink with a tile backsplash. The fourth double bedroom overlooks the garden and has a secondary room currently used as a dressing room, which could also serve as a nursery, home office, or craft room. The upstairs family bathroom includes a bath with an electric shower, a white WC and wash-hand basin, and a stainless steel heated towel rail.
The extensive gardens surrounding the house feature lawns, mature trees, shrubs, hedges, rhododendrons, azaleas, bluebells, irises, herbs, productive apple trees, and a spectacular cherry blossom tree. A gazebo on the south lawn offers panoramic views. The property includes a tarmac driveway bordered by a high beech hedge, providing private off-street parking and leading to a double garage.
The house is double-glazed throughout with new doors and windows installed seven years ago. It is heated by an oil-fired central heating system, supplemented by a bank of south-facing solar panels providing hot water in the summer.
Located in a semi-rural area on the A81 as it leaves Callander to the south, this property is just minutes from the town’s amenities. Callander, a picturesque tourist town within Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park, offers a range of independent shops, cafes, restaurants, and essential services such as a bank, post office, leisure centre with swimming pool, and a golf course. It is also home to public services including a health centre, library, police and fire stations, and well-regarded schools. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby walks, cycle trails, and lochs. Road networks provide convenient access to Central Scotland and beyond, with Stirling 15 miles to the southeast and both Edinburgh and Glasgow within an hour’s drive.
