THE SERGEANTS MESSROBERTSON DRIVE, WINSTON BARRACKSLANARK

The Sergeants Mess is a breath-taking luxury detached home,

which was formerly a regimental building within the Winston

Barracks, Lanark. This substantial property was originally

constructed in the late 1930s as part of the barracks which was

home to the Cameronians Regiment between 1941 and 1968.

Externally the property is bold and striking with “Old English”

architectural features such as sweeping Rosemary tiled roof, tall

imposing chimney stacks and bright red, brick facings. Set within

approximately 0.75 acres of ground, the property boasts extensive

driveway and garden space, which wrap around the villa and

are enclosed within attractive combinations of wall, fence and

gates. Within the grounds is a wonderful detached double garage

complete with it’s own kitchen area and staircase leading to the

converted attic space which forms a fully functional office. The

internal conversion of the property has created a highly spacious

five bedroom executive home with impressive open plan public

areas, individual bedroom suites and a selection of inspirational

original features. The stunning specification and charm of

The Sergeant’s Mess instantly capture one’s imagination and

bring to mind the property’s rich history as a regimental home.

Having personally visited the property in it’s previous form

as an abandoned and derelict building, I have to say that the

transformation is nothing short of miraculous. On my first visit, I

found The Sergeant’s Mess as an empty, un-lit structure complete

with a family of resident pigeons, nesting high in the roof space.

At that time, I struggled to see the full potential and was perhaps

put-off by the lack of heat, windows or proper floor coverings.

Nonetheless and testament to their abilities, the present owners

have transformed the property into their home as you see it today.

Their vision and great efforts to restore and improve this historical

villa have culminated in what has to be one of South Lanarkshire’s

most impressive detached villas.

Breath-taking formal lounge with fabulous parquet flooring, open fireplace and multiple windows that provide varying aspects.

French doors and with bespoke transom light can be thrown open to form a stunning semi-open plan living space, perfect for large family gatherings, birthday parties and Christmas.

Great care was taken to expose and restore original timber up-rights and lintels surrounding fireplace recesses, which add to the fabulous character of the Sergeant’s Mess.

As noted, the internal specification is quite astonishing. As such the provided photographs and HD video footage only elude to a degree

of the property’s true quality and character. The rest will only be appreciated through internal viewing. Accommodation on both levels is

of exceptional proportions and is complimented by attractive decor, beautiful parquet flooring or fitted carpets, charming open fireplace

and two lovely wood-burning stoves. The kitchen is of an attractive cream shaker style with butcher block work-surfaces and granite

surrounding the belfast sink. It also benefits from a full array of integrated appliances with range-cooker set beneath a fully formed

chimney-style hood with oak trim. Bathrooms are of a contemporary style and have been furbished with stylish tiling from Porcelanosa

and sanitary wares from ‘Roca’. The accommodation is completed by a recently erected glass house with prism sky-light, which is adjoined

to the rear of the property to form a wonderful additional public space which would be fabulous for intimate family parties, being all too

handy for the integral wine cellar.
