Strathleven House, Category A listed building in West Dunbartonshire, Scotland.
Strathleven House is a mansion in West Dunbartonshire with a central block rising two stories above a raised basement. The symmetrical facade features sash windows and Doric columns arranged in a classical pattern.
The building was constructed between 1700 and 1708 following William Cochrane's purchase of the estate in 1670. Its design marked an important phase in the development of Scottish classical architecture.
The architectural design represents one of the earliest examples of Palladian style in Scotland, with strong evidence pointing to James Smith as the architect.
The building underwent extensive renovation around 2000 and now serves as office and conference space. Visitors should note that this is a private property and can be viewed from the exterior.
The grounds once contained the Bruce Tree, an oak believed to have been planted by Robert the Bruce. This historically significant tree was destroyed by fire in 2004.
