A breathtaking mansion in Scotland has just gone up for sale, built in a traditional style and finished to exacting standards. Balmains House is a seven-bedroom home enjoying a secluded rural setting approximately three miles from the village of Stanley in Perthshire, and is currently on the market through Galbraith for offers over £2,575,000.

The mansion, which features a stone exterior under a pitched slate roof, was renovated and refurbished to a very high standard by the current owners. The quality of craftsmanship is immediately obvious when stepping inside, with standout features including panelled doors, wooden flooring, plasterwork with cornicing, and an elegant sweeping central staircase.

The bright and spacious reception rooms can be accessed directly from the grand entrance hall, with the opulent drawing room and dining room both enjoying southerly views across the manicured grounds.
