Garden and Grounds

Parleyhill House is ensconced within garden ground which befits a property of its stature and extends to approximately 1.66 acres. The plot is afforded a genuine sense of seclusion and privacy by a combination of mature trees, well- established shrubbery and hedgerows, and traditional stone walling.

Proudly positioned above Kirk Street, Parleyhill House is accessed through a pair of stone-pillared, wrought iron gates and is afforded privacy, by virtue of the plot’s elevation and traditional stone walls. Beyond the gates, the driveway rises gently up to the house, where there is a generous gravel sweep providing parking and turning space for multiple vehicles.

To the front, the pretty curtilege frames the house attractively, with a spacious driveway for car parking and turning and a wonderful Wisteria, which has been trained to festoon the principal elevation with its vibrant purple garlands in the summer months. The house presides over the generous, South-facing front garden, which is governed by views towards the imposing frame of Culross Abbey and has a lawn interspersed with mature specimen trees.

The mainstay of the garden extends to the rear of the house and has been landscaped and planted with diligence and enthusiasm by successive generations, to create something of an idyllic haven. The expanse of lawn is trimmed with lush herbaceous borders, featuring a wonderful array of plants, which bloom in a multi-coloured display. The variegation of flowers, ornamental shrubs and specimen trees within the garden would appeal to any amateur horticulturalist, and include Rose, Rhododendron, Clematis, and fragrant Lavender, to name but a few.

There is a range of seating areas in the garden, thoughtfully positioned to catch the sun at different times of day, including a second patio terrace which is sheltered by traditional stone walls and is conveniently positioned in proximity to the rear door from the
kitchen.

To the North of the plot, the garden incorporates a charming paddock, which is fringed with mature trees and set beyond traditional post and rail fencing.
