Longacre House is now a handsome and generously proportioned family home, sympathetically refurbished by the current owners of
30 years and extended with an impressive two storey extension, a detached garage and the conversion of the former byre offering
versatile separate accommodation. The original crofters home dating back to the 1800’s, was a modest, traditional stone cottage with a long strip field or ‘croft’ at the rear for small scale cultivation, hence Longacre. The house now more grand in style retains many Edwardian features, reproducing them elsewhere - high ceilings, decorative coving, original period fireplaces, traditional brickwork and generous sized rooms - with modern double glazed, wooden sash windows that maximise light and energy efficiency, whilst the annexe features excellent stonework and wooden double glazed casement windows.
