A beautifully presented, extended Victorian detached villa offering generous, well-proportioned accommodation over two floors. The property retains a wealth of original period features, seamlessly enhanced by tasteful modern upgrades throughout. Set within an exceptional wrap-around garden, it enjoys a highly desirable south-facing rear aspect, providing excellent privacy, seclusion, and open outlooks.

Externally, the villa occupies a substantial and mature plot. The front garden features an expansive lawn bordered by established planting, fruit trees, and a thoughtfully naturalised area designed to encourage wildlife. A long driveway provides ample off-street parking for several vehicles and leads to a well-proportioned garage/workshop.

To the rear, the garden is accessed directly from the kitchen/dining area via a raised decked terrace—an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining. This area overlooks vibrant potted planting, patio spaces, and open fields beyond. The rear garden is a true wildlife haven, offering a high degree of privacy and tranquillity.

The accommodation is entered through an entrance vestibule and welcoming hallway, which leads to a lounge, sitting room, formal dining room, spacious kitchen/diner, study/bedroom four, and a convenient W.C. cloakroom on the ground floor.

A striking original staircase, enhanced by two windows on the half landing that flood the space with natural light, leads to the upper level. Here, there are three generous double bedrooms—one with en-suite facilities, a further single bedroom, and a well-appointed family bathroom.

The current owners have thoughtfully upgraded the property, preserving its Victorian character while introducing contemporary comforts. Further benefits include gas-fired central heating and double glazing throughout.

Despite its peaceful, semi-rural feel, the property is within a five-minute walk of Alyth-s amenities, including independent shops, cafés, a doctor-s surgery, and a vibrant community life. The primary school is within easy walking distance, while secondary schooling in Blairgowrie is served by a school bus. The nearby Alyth Den provides beautiful countryside walks and an ideal location for dog owners.

Presented in immaculate, move-in condition, this outstanding home offers spacious family living on a generous plot, with excellent commuting links.

Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the size, character, and setting of this exceptional property.

Lounge - 4.01 x 4.01 m (13′2″ x 13′2″ ft)
A bright and elegant room positioned to the front of the property, enjoying large windows overlooking the front garden. Period features abound, including picture rails, decorative cornicing, intricate timber window surrounds, and a ceiling rose. The focal point is the open fireplace, set within a handsome wooden surround with tiled hearth and decorative ironwork, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Sitting Room - 4.03 x 3.99 m (13′3″ x 13′1″ ft)
Another generously proportioned reception room with large front-facing windows providing excellent natural light. Currently used as an additional sitting room, this versatile space could easily adapt to a variety of uses.

A useful press-style cupboard offers additional storage.

Kitchen Dining - 5.00 x 2.70 m (16′5″ x 8′10″ ft)
The Kitchen Diner features a RotPunkt German-designed kitchen, installed by McManus Knight of Monifieth in March 2025.

A traditional press cupboard provides useful storage and completes the room.

Study/Bedroom Four - 3.83 x 3.65 m (12′7″ x 11′12″ ft)
This delightful, rear-facing room is currently used as a study but could equally serve as a double bedroom downstairs, particularly given its convenient proximity to the downstairs cloakroom.

W.C Cloakroom - 2.27 x 1.12 m (7′5″ x 3′8″ ft)
The downstairs cloakroom has been fully modernised while remaining sympathetic to the character of the home.

Bedroom Five/Dressing Room - 2.55 x 2.26 m (8′4″ x 7′5″ ft)
A single bedroom currently utilised as a dressing room, benefiting from a front-facing dormer window. This flexible space would also be ideal as a nursery or home office.
