Description
21 The Village was originally owned by Meikleour Estate and was home to the estate kennels. The cottage is situated on the side of a country lane which leads out of Meikleour towards Lethendy. It is approached via a short driveway which leads to a gravel parking area beside the garage. French windows lead into a bright and welcoming kitchen which has been created within an extension at the rear of the property. The kitchen is fitted with two range cookers and lots of storage as well as a built in dresser. It also has space for a dining table. The sitting room and dining room are located in the original part of the house and look out over the front garden to the lane and fields beyond. The sitting room is a lovely cosy room with an open fireplace while the dining room is ideal for entertaining and links handily to the kitchen. At the north end of the house is a study which is fitted with bookshelves and has a bathroom attached which would work well as an en suite bathroom if the study was to be used as a third bedroom.
Upstairs there are two pretty bedrooms with views over the fabulous garden and open fields to the rear. Bedroom 1 has plenty of built in storage and both bedrooms share a large bathroom.

Timber garden shed with three stores
Location
21 The Village is situated on the edge of the conservation village of Meikleour. The village is famous for being beside the tallest beech hedge in the world and has an active community centred on the village hall and the much loved Meikleour Arms Hotel. Blairgowrie, which is only 6 miles away, has a good choice of shops, supermarkets, cafés and restaurants as well as health and professional services. Dunkeld is 9 miles to the west of Meikleour and with its historic cathedral and riverside position is very picturesque. It has an excellent selection of independent shops and cafés as well as beautiful walking and cycling trails. Dunkeld railway station has regular services north and south and a sleeper service to London. Perth and Dundee are about 13 miles and 20 miles away respectively.
21 The Village is ideally positioned to take advantage of the many outdoor pursuits that Perthshire has to offer. These include salmon fishing on the nearby rivers Isla and Tay, pheasant and partridge shooting on local estates and stalking and grouse shooting on the higher ground a little further north. The house is well placed for the ski slopes of Glenshee, and for getting into the Perthshire hills as well as the Angus Glens. Riverside and woodland walks locally include the spectacular bluebell woods at Ballathie. Golfers will enjoy the proximity of some of Scotland’s finest championship golf courses including Gleneagles, St Andrews, Carnoustie and The Rosemount Course at Blairgowrie Golf Club. There are also popular courses in Perth, Dunkeld and Alyth.

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:
Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
