Built / Designed For: 10th Lord Gray
House & Family History: House of Gray is a charming early 18th century house with a creamy stuccoed exterior. After World War II the house was allowed to slip into dereliction; at one time it was without a roof. The house was restored in the late 20th and early 21st century, supported in part by grants from Historic Scotland (the roof has been completely replaced). House of Gray was listed for sale in the spring of 2005 for £800,000.
Comments: The architectural historian John Mackay called the House of Gray "one of the prettiest seats in Scotland."
