A modernised Victorian home in Dunblane has hit the market for nearly £1 million.

Glenbrae is thought to date back to 1890 with extensive renovations completed this year.

The Glen Road property is set in extensive gardens and has a separate guest apartment.

The house has five bedrooms, three bathrooms, multiple reception rooms and a home gym.

The main reception rooms on the ground floor are front-facing and overlook the gardens.

This includes the newly created open-plan kitchen, dining and family room.

The space was previously two separate rooms and has been opened up.

The room has windows to the front and side of the house and has a log burner in the family area.

The utility room sits to the rear and there is also a pantry store.

The house is less than a mile from Dunblane railway station. Image: Savills

The sitting room has a large front-facing bay window, a fireplace with marble hearth and surround and traditional decorative cornicing.

The adjacent home office has a door which connects the main house to the guest apartment.

The guest space offers an open-plan kitchen, sitting and dining room as well as private stairs to a bedroom and bathroom.

There is also a WC on this floor.
