An idyllic country cottage

Location

Hillview Cottage is aptly named being situated on a gentle hillside with panoramic views over rolling farmland to the hills beyond. The location offers a scenic setting combined with good accessibility to the major towns of central Scotland. Perth and Crieff are both within 12 miles.

Crieff is an attractive town with two supermarkets, independent shops and some professional services. Perth (12 miles) has a much wider choice of shops and services as well as an excellent choice of bars and restaurants, a concert hall, theatre, art gallery, museum and cinema. The town's leisure facilities include the Perth Climbing Centre, the Willowgate Activity Centre, Perth Leisure pool, an ice rink and two sports centres. Perth also has a hospital.

Gleneagles Hotel and Country Club is about 10 miles away and there are local golf courses in Perth, Crieff, Muthill and Comrie. Fishing, horse riding, hillwalking and cycling are all popular pursuits in the area and there are lovely walks directly from the cottage. Edinburgh, Perth, Stirling and Dundee are all within commuting distance of Hillview Cottage.

Description

Hillview is believed to date from the mid-20th century and was originally a modest farm worker's cottage. It has recently been extended and comprehensively refurbished. The house has retained lots of traditional character but now has a refreshingly bright and contemporary interior. It is immaculately presented and in move-in condition. The property is approached via a quiet country lane and a parking area has been created for two cars. An impressive open plan kitchen/living/dining room is the focal point of the house which, with its vaulted ceiling and wall of folding glass doors is bright, spacious and welcoming. From the kitchen sink it is possible to see as far as the Sma Glen and when the main doors are folded back, the living space extends seamlessly onto the terrace outside. Three double bedrooms are decorated in fresh neutral tones. Bedroom 1 has a wood burning stove making it cosy in the winter. Bedroom 2 has built in wardrobes and bedroom 3 has an en suite shower room as well as a door to the garden. There is also a bathroom with freestanding bath and walk-in shower and a utility room with back door.

Garden
The garden is one of the loveliest features of Hillview Cottage. Gravel paths, herbaceous borders, neat lawn and strategically placed trellises, archways and terraces have been used to create a small but delightful garden. A clipped beech hedge wraps around the property and gives it shelter and privacy.
