Property Description

Barcraig is a rare and distinguished detached residence, occupying a prime position on the corner of Bankend Road and Kilbarchan Road, on the edge of the highly sought-after village of Bridge of Weir. Set within a substantial and beautifully maintained plot, this Edwardian gem offers circa 4,500 sq ft of versatile and elegant living space — a perfect harmony of period grandeur and timeless design. Constructed around 1904, Barcraig is a proud example of Edwardian architecture, a relatively brief but celebrated era noted for its outstanding build quality and design ethos. Influenced by the Arts & Crafts movement, the home is thoughtfully arranged to capture natural light and create a sense of flow and space throughout. Generous room proportions, detailed original features, and high ceilings give this property a refined character rarely found today.

Lovingly cared for by the same family for over two decades, Barcraig retains a warm, welcoming atmosphere, with interiors that have been sympathetically maintained and modernised where appropriate. With extensive accommodation across multiple levels, the home offers superb flexibility — ideal for growing families, multi-generational living, or those seeking space to entertain, work from home, or pursue creative passions.

Barcraig is more than just a house — it is a home of substance, style, and soul, nestled within one of Renfrewshire’s most desirable locations.
