Property description
One of Bothwell's most imposing and architecturally significant detached villas. The cloistered reception hallway is a precursor to the wealth of period features and craftsmanship that have been perfectly preserved by previous owners. Attention to detail is evident in spades, notably the ornate cornicing on show in the formal public rooms and master bedroom. This truly is a once in a generation opportunity to purchase an outstanding villa within the town's conservation area.
