The property
Easter Bendochy House is a splendid contemporary property originally built in 1996 on the site of an old farm steading. The property has outstanding accommodation including 4 bedrooms and two well-equipped apartments currently let as holiday accommodation. The main house has a unique layout centred around a crescent-shaped reception hall, with most of the accommodation taking full advantage of the magnificent views to the south, across the Perthshire countryside.

The reception hall has exposed stone walls and a galleried landing above, as well as doors to the ground floor reception rooms. These include the dual aspect dining room and the office, both of which have French doors opening to the gardens. There is also a spacious, open plan living room and kitchen, with a brick-built fireplace and plenty of natural light, including French doors to the patio area. The kitchen itself has wooden painted units to base and wall level, a central island, a split butler sink and an Aga. There are four comfortable double bedrooms, two of which are en suite including the well presented principal bedroom. The ground floor also has a family bathroom, while upstairs there is a sitting room and library. The sitting room has doors opening onto the balcony, which affords far-reaching views of the surrounding countryside.

The original part of the steading has been converted into 2 apartments as well as a gym, office (10m x 4m), games room and a home cinema complete with seating, lighting and sound system.

Apartment 1, known as Sidlaws, is accessed by external steps from the courtyard and has a balcony with lovely views. It has an open plan living/dining/kitchen, 2 double bedrooms and a bathroom. Planning permission (lapsed) had previously been approved to link this apartment to the main house.

Apartment 2, known as The Bothy, is a one bedroomed studio apartment accessed via a spiral staircase from the games room and it has a kitchen/dining area and a shower room.

The property is an ideal family home for buyers who enjoy entertaining while the two apartments provide the opportunity to create an income stream from letting or to create independent accommodation for relatives, guests or for running a business.
