Offers over £1.7 million are now being accepted for the property that lies in close proximity to East Kilbride and Hamilton.

The ground floor and first floor comprise four reception rooms, a stunning garden room and two kitchens, including a dining kitchen by Clive Christian. A utility room and a study can also be found on these lower levels of the house.

The second and third floors are dedicated to the five bedrooms and three bathrooms of the property, including two en-suites and a spacious master bedroom with a large dressing room.

Mark Jamieson, partner at Corum Property, commented: "We are incredibly excited to be bringing Netherfield House to the open market. It affords an incredibly rare opportunity to own such a magnificent property, which is easily one of the finest homes in Scotland.

"Netherfield would provide the ideal home for those looking to move to a real country home in a small, picturesque area and yet be well connected within the main two cities of Scotland."
