shower rooms, one being a large principal bedroom with dual aspect windows.
The second floor is presently used as the owner’s accommodation and comprises
a bright space with windows overlooking the countryside to the front with an
open plan living room with wood burning stove, along with a fitted kitchen
with modern floor units and a breakfast bar.
From the entrance, an inner hallway leads to a further generously - sized room.

To the front there is parking for several cars with a pathway to the side
leading to a front patio. To the rear there is a grassed area and drying
green.
Location
Kip in the Kirk has a lovely setting in one of Stirlingshire’s prettiest
villages, surrounded by unspoilt countryside alongside Scotland’s first
National Park. The area offers some of Scotland’s finest scenery, including
Loch Lomond and the Arrochar Alps. Loch Lomond is crossed by the Highland
boundary fault and the physical characteristics of lowland and highland
Scotland can be seen within a few miles of each other.
The property lies in the village of Drymen which is a charming conservation
village with its own primary school, village shops, pubs and hotels. Secondary
education is available at the highly regarded Balfron High School. The area is
well placed for commuting by road to Glasgow (18 miles), Glasgow Airport (22
miles) and Edinburgh Airport (50 miles), while the rail service from Balloch
Station offers services to Glasgow.
For sports enthusiasts the great outdoors awaits. There is superb hill walking
and climbing in the area. The Arrochar Alps include four Munros (mountains
over 3000ft) and six Corbetts, the best known of which is the Cobbler. The
West Highland Way, Rob Roy Way and the Queen Elizabeth Forest Park are all
within easy reach. Ben Lomond is only minutes away by car. Loch Lomond itself
is well known for its water sports including wind surfing, sailing, excellent
water skiing and wake boarding. There are a number of highly regarded golf
courses in the area including the internationally acclaimed Loch Lomond Golf
Club. Other golf courses include Strathendrick, Buchanan Castle, Hilton Park
and Milngavie Golf Club.
