Lot 2 - The Old Farmhouse, Hilltown Of Ballindean, Inchture, PH14 9QS

The Old Farmhouse.
The original farmhouse also enjoys an elevated position with stunning views over the Carse of Gowrie. The original farmhouse is of stone construction with a slate roof, and the accommodation is arranged over two floors. A number of period details remain, including timber flooring and sash and case windows.

A timber door, with windows on either side, opens into the reception hall. To the left lies the living room, which has sash and case windows, timber flooring, and a press cupboard. An open fire is set within a stone surround with a tiled hearth.

To the right of the hall is the sitting room, with windows on two sides, a wood-burning stove which sits on a slate hearth and a glazed exterior patio door. This leads out to the large patio area with breathtaking views across to the River Tay and Fife.

An inner hallway, with a large pantry cupboard, leads through to the kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with a range of base, wall and display units, along with contrasting worktops and tiled splashbacks. It has a stone-tiled floor, and the original stone chimney breast has been retained as a feature. There is an integrated electric cooker and hob with extractor above, dishwasher and space for a fridge freezer. (There is a building warrant to open up the kitchen to the patio area with bi-fold doors. 25/01287/DOM4) From here, a door leads to a back porch, with a WC off, and an external door to the rear. There is also access, from outside, to a pantry and a laundry.

The upper floor comprises four bedrooms, including one single room. Two bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, while the third and fourth bedrooms have Velux windows. A family bathroom completes the accommodation.
In addition to the garden ground, there is a stone-built outbuilding with 6 open bays, attached to the rear of the farmhouse. A traditional bothy overlooking the patio provides development potential, subject to planning.

There is also an option to purchase two additional fields totalling 9.57 ha (23.64 acres) coloured orange on the sale plan, along with a large modern agricultural shed.
