4 bedroom detached house for sale

This listed detached lodge house in desirable Crieff promises a beautifully presented period home with four bedrooms, two bathrooms, convivial living space, and enclosed wraparound gardens. There is also a driveway and a detached single garage for private parking.

This four-bedroom detached lodge house is desirably located in the historic market town of Crieff; conveniently within walking distance of central amenities. The charming C-listed property sits within attractive gardens, providing privacy with hedgerows along the borders. The grounds also include a private driveway and a detached garage. Inside, the home features minimalist décor, large sash windows, and high ceilings, that create a wonderfully bright and airy atmosphere. Its traditional character has been preserved and complemented by sympathetic modern fixtures.

Once inside, an entrance hall (and its durable tile flooring) flows through to the social heart of the home – a generous kitchen with a formal dining area that leads outside via a bright rear porch with space for seating or storage. The kitchen faces south and is perfectly designed for relaxed socialising with a central breakfast island and a garden-facing window seat. It is fitted to a high standard with quality worktops and timeless Shaker-inspired cabinetry, integrated with a double oven, an electric hob with a statement hood, a dishwasher, and an under-counter fridge. Additionally, there is a pantry cupboard and an adjoining utility room with ample room for freestanding goods.

Also accessed from the entrance hall is a living room bathed in sunny natural light from double windows. Painted wood flooring and a focal log burner with a timber mantle add homely rustic warmth to this bright and spacious sitting area.

Completing the downstairs is one of the four bedrooms on offer. This good-sized double is wood-floored and benefits from windows to two sides (one with a fitted seat) and a period fireplace housing a log-burning stove. The remaining two doubles are located upstairs, nestled beneath the eaves but also of a good size, plus equipped with fitted storage. There is also a sky-lit single bedroom, currently set up as a cosy snug. All bedrooms on this level are comfortably carpeted and reached via a landing with built-in storage.

In addition to fitted wardrobes, the principal suite includes a sky-lit bathroom featuring a luxurious slipper bath. Also upstairs is a light and airy contemporary shower room. Both washrooms are laid with chic oak-style flooring.

The home is kept warm and efficient by gas central heating and full double-glazing, recently installed to the downstairs.

Outside, the handsome stone-built property is hugged by fully enclosed gardens that are neatly lawned with attractive plant borders. An off-road driveway and a detached single garage provide convenient private parking.

Extras: Included in the sale are all fitted floor and window coverings, light fittings, and integrated kitchen appliances. Freestanding goods in the utility room are available by separate negotiation.
