Description
The Old Church is a fabulous house dating from 1843. Stone built, with a slate roof, it dates from the time of the Disruption when the Free Church broke away from the established Church of Scotland. The church was reunited with Colliston Parish Church in 1930. It was later used as a store and garage. Between 1999 and 2005 a hugely ambitious restoration programme was undertaken to convert it to a stunning house. Since 2021 further substantive works have included replacing some of the windows, so that it is fully double glazed, along with a new boiler being installed, as well as refurbishing the downstairs en suite and upstairs bathroom, and some redecoration and recarpeting. It is now an extremely well presented house, situated on the edge of the small village of Colliston, bordering onto agricultural land.
It is very much a new house within an old shell, with the extensive original works stripping the building back to the walls and roof. The roof was re-slated, timbers were treated, new flooring installed, along with re-wiring and plumbing. The house was insulated and new windows, retaining the outward style of the originals, were fitted, along with new veluxes. The house was then extended in 2010 with the addition of the sun lounge or garden room, and a balcony off the main bedroom above. The large church windows bring wonderful light into this spacious property, particularly in the magnificent hall where symmetrical glazed double doors provide borrowed light from the principal rooms. It is an extremely interesting and well designed house, the conversion of which has greatly enriched the original structure. In recent years, as well as being used as a wonderful family home, it has also been a very successful Airbnb holiday let.
At the time of the original restoration, particular care was undertaken to ensure that the works were carried out in keeping with the building’s heritage. An impressive staircase was created from retained timbers, while new panelled doors were modelled on period originals, with leaded side lights from the entrance vestibule into the hall and into the sitting room. There is underfloor heating on the ground floor. Also at ground floor level there is wooden flooring other than in the hall, vestibule and sun lounge. All in all it is a wonderful mix of the old and the new.
A wooden front door, with a glazed overlight and side lights, opens to a welcoming vestibule with a tiled floor and stairs up to an inner partially glazed and leaded door which opens to a fabulous hall with cornicing, centre roses, two wall lights, ceramic tiled floor and a staircase to the first floor. Doors open to a well proportioned and double aspect games room with two centre roses, a wall light and deep window ledges. From here doors lead through to the sitting room, which is another fine room linking to both the hall and to the dining room. Sliding doors also lead through to the sun lounge with a limestone tiled floor and door to the garden. The dining room links both to the hall and to the fully fitted kitchen which has wall and floor units with a sink, Leisure Rangemaster 110 cooker with two ovens, grill, hot drawer, five gas burners and an electric griddle plate with extractor above. There is also a Hoover fridge/freezer and space for informal dining. Also off the hall is a utility room with fitted units incorporating a sink, plumbing for a washing machine, side entrance door, clothes pulley and a cupboard housing a wall mounted Worcester boiler. Bedroom one has an en suite with shower cubicle, washbasin and WC. Also at this level is bedroom two and a shower room with a shower cubicle, washbasin and WC.
The first floor landing has under eaves storage. Upstairs are three further bedrooms with bedroom four also having under eaves storage and bedroom five having sliding doors to a balcony with views out over agricultural land. The bathroom has a bath, shower cubicle, washbasin and WC.
Outside there is a west facing paved seating area adjacent to the sun lounge. There is a covered wooden seat, raised vegetable beds and a flower border. The block built and harled double garage has a slate roof, automatic up and over door, concrete floor, power and light, and a workshop area with a sink.
