# What this listing is Ardmore House is a historic country house in Dunbartonshire on a small peninsula near the Firth of Clyde. The property is offered through Strutt & Parker at offers over £635,000. It sits in roughly 22 acres of grounds that include mature woodland, a lake and the ruins of a 16th‑century tower.
# The building and its character The main house dates to 1806 and is Category B‑listed. Architecturally it is notable for a central tower and crenellated parapets. The tower is integrated into the circulation on the ground and first floors and is fitted out as a study on the second floor, offering views over the grounds and surrounding water.
The entrance hall is crowned by a circular cupola that brings daylight down to a sweeping staircase. The overall layout and materials are treated as period features in the listing description.
# Accommodation and layout
The house's configuration is presented as suitable for families who want separate spaces for older children or for working at home in the tower study.
