GRAS appointed to refurbish the A-listed Malleny House in Balerno

We are delighted to announce success in winning a commission to provide architectural services and lead a design team for the refurbishment of the Category A-listed Malleny House in Balerno, just outside Edinburgh.

Malleny House is thought to date originally from the 16th century and owned by the National Trust for Scotland.  Surrounded by beautiful gardens with 400-year-old yew trees, the main central part of the building dates originally from the 16th century and consists of a harled and gabled laird’s house very much in the Scots style of the period, to which a single-storey bow-fronted Georgian wing was added in 1820 at one end and a later 19th century crenelated Gothic wing at the other. To the front of the house exists a 17th century doocot.
