Newliston Estate is on the market for £15,000,000 listed with Savills.

Tucked away just 10 miles from the vibrant city of Edinburgh lies Newliston Estate, a hidden treasure steeped in history and grandeur.

Now on the market for the first time, Newliston is the last country house designed by Robert Adam, one of the most celebrated Scottish architects of the 18th century.

Only two families—the Dundases and the Hogs—have owned Newliston since the 15th century, adding to the estate’s storied past. The property’s history intertwines with Scotland's heritage, from its origins under the Dundas family to its transformation under the Hogs, who commissioned Adam's architectural vision to build the current Georgian mansion in 1792-3.

The 13-bedroom mansion is a testament to Adam's genius, featuring harmonious proportions and intricate decorative details throughout. Highlights include a ballroom with a sprung dancefloor, ideal for lively ceilidhs, and a bow-windowed reception room offering breathtaking views of the surrounding parklands.

The mansion’s warm, lived-in charm contrasts beautifully with its stately appearance, offering a welcoming atmosphere despite its grandeur. The property also features a self-contained three-bedroom apartment, ensuring both privacy and versatility for its future owner.

The estate's grounds are as remarkable as the mansion itself, both designated of ‘outstanding architectural and historical interest’ by Historic Scotland.

Designed in the early 18th century by Field Marshal John Dalrymple, the 2nd Earl of Stair, the landscape draws heavy inspiration from the gardens of Versailles.

Think tree-lined avenues forming a Union Jack, serene ponds, canals, and a walled garden—all meticulously planned to complement the estate's Georgian elegance.

Despite its pastoral charm, Newliston offers unparalleled convenience. It lies within easy reach of Edinburgh’s city center, the airport, and Scotland's motorway network. Whether you're enjoying the estate's tranquil woodlands or heading to the city for business or leisure, the location provides the best of both worlds.

With its mix of arable land, parkland, and woodlands, Newliston offers significant development and leisure potential.

The estate includes a portfolio of let residential and commercial properties, generating income while maintaining its secluded atmosphere. Whether envisioned as a private residence, boutique hotel, or event venue, the possibilities for Newliston are as vast as its acreage.

Evelyn Channing of Savills Edinburgh describes Newliston as a “pastoral oasis,” and it’s easy to see why.

This is not just a property—it’s a legacy. The combination of architectural excellence, historical significance, and natural beauty makes Newliston a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for discerning buyers.

For those captivated by history, architecture, or the allure of the Scottish countryside, Newliston Estate is a jewel waiting to be claimed
