Savills is delighted to launch Collalis & Conachra Farm to the market, an exceptional 188-acre farm at the gateway to Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park. Offering a five bedroomed principle house and three bedroom farmhouse, productive farmland, woodland, river and striking natural beauty, the property is available for sale as a whole or in two separate lots.
Situated just two miles from Gartocharn and within easy reach of both Glasgow (20 miles) and Stirling (25 miles), the estate occupies one of central Scotland’s most desirable and accessible rural settings.
Diane Fleming of Savills said: “Collalis & Conachra Farm is a rare opportunity to acquire an amenity farm within remarkable reach of both Loch Lomond and the city of Glasgow. The estate offers a wonderfully diverse package, from a country house set within beautiful gardens, a farmhouse with potential to create an annexe or further accommodation, and land with productive pasture and established woodlands.
“This farm has been an important part of the owners’ lives for many years. It's a working landscape, but also a place where they've focused on encouraging wildlife and protecting natural habitats — from wildflower meadows and raised bog to hedgerows and woodland. They have taken real pride in what’s developed here, and hope the next owners will value it just as much and continue to care for it.”
Lot One: Collalis House: A much loved family home with stunning views, set in seven acres of gardens and grounds
Collalis House enjoys a secluded and elevated position with expansive views over surrounding farmland, woodlands and rolling hills. The dramatic outline of Ben Lomond, Scotland’s most southerly Munro, stands prominently to the north, with views extending west across Loch Lomond to the Highland boundary.
Believed to date from the 14th century and extended with care in the 1970s, Collalis House combines period character with generous, light-filled accommodation suited to modern living. The principal rooms are arranged over two floors and include five en suite bedrooms, a double-height entrance hall with flagstone flooring and wood-burning stove, spacious reception areas, and an open-plan kitchen leading to a garden room. The house benefits from a three-way heating system incorporating oil-fired central heating, solar thermal panels and a wood-burning back boiler.
The surrounding gardens and grounds extend to approximately seven acres and have been landscaped to complement the property's elevated setting and broad vistas. To the west, a stream winds through the garden, crossed by timber bridges and bordered by mature trees, with access to a small mixed woodland via a gate and footpath. To the east, a tennis court is positioned, while the south-facing terraces provide an ideal space for outdoor dining and relaxation.
A historic stone water well, once the sole water source for the house, is an attractive feature set within the lawns and planting. Informal hedgerows define the garden edges, which include well-kept lawns and ornamental shrubbery. To the north, the garden blends into a four-acre paddock, cleverly connected via a ha-ha to maintain uninterrupted views and enclosed for grazing livestock.
Collalis House has previously operated as a holiday let, though its primary use has been as a much-loved family residence.
Lot Two: Conachra Farm: Traditional farm with development potential extending to approximately 180 acres
Located to the west of the estate is Conachra Farm, a livestock unit with a farmhouse which offers opportunity for expansion and range of agricultural buildings. The traditional one-and-a-half storey farmhouse is constructed in stone painted white, with a pitched slate roof incorporating dormer windows. It adjoins a byre to the west and a garage and store to the east.
Internally, the house provides an open-plan kitchen and sitting room, utility and boot room, a newly refurbished bathroom and one bedroom on the ground floor, with two further bedrooms upstairs. The property is currently vacant and has recently undergone cosmetic improvements including new carpets and radiators. Outside, the farmhouse enjoys a lawned garden enclosed by mature trees and fencing, alongside dedicated parking.
A pre-application has been submitted to the local authority for potential extensions, including the integration of the byre to create further reception space and bathrooms, and conversion of the garage and barn into an annexe with a open plan living space, two bedrooms and two bathrooms. Plans are available from the selling agents.
The holding comprises a mix of traditional and modern farm buildings, including a five-bay steel-framed shed, adjoining lean-tos and a raised central feed pass, with a stack yard to the north.
The land extends to approximately 180 acres, including 70 acres of pasture and 53 acres of rough grazing, classified by the James Hutton Institute as grade 3, 4 and 5. The gently undulating fields, rising between 50 and 110 metres above sea level, are stock-proof and have access to water troughs or naturally sourced water.
In addition, there are 31 acres of commercial conifers, thinned and maintained, incorporating woodland paths, and a further 12 acres of amenity woodland. The mature oak wood, dissected by the Catter Burn features a small waterfall. It is particularly scenic in spring when carpeted with bluebells. A one-acre raised bog adds ecological value, while riparian fishing rights, two ponds and several high-seats enhance the estate’s sporting and amenity appeal. Rough shooting, duck flighting and stalking have all been enjoyed here previously, alongside a small private shoot.
Much of the land is classed as F2 for forestry potential. The public road which leads to the property is an approved timber transport route—supporting future afforestation or woodland management initiatives.
