This home from home is situated in a peaceful location on a livestock farm which is also home to Transy Shetland Pony Stud, established in 1896. The property enjoys magnificent views over the rolling countryside and there are many opportunities for walking in the immediate vicinity. There is a village shop at Powmill (1.5 miles) whilst at Dollar and Kinross, both within 9 miles, you can find shops, historic monuments and cycle paths. There are numerous golf courses close by, including the world-renowned Gleneagles (14 miles). There is fishing at Kinross Trout Fishery and Loch Leven. Loch Leven Nature Reserve (RSPB) runs programmes throughout the year (12 miles) and Knockhill Racing Circuit has year-round events and experience days (6 miles). The cities of Edinburgh and Glasgow are both within 36 miles.

The historic 200-year-old farmhouse has been sympathetically upgraded but still retains many original features. After entering the large hall, you pass a stairway to your left and the smaller of two lounge areas with seating and a Smart TV. Following the hall, to your right is the beautiful light and bright main lounge area with a Smart TV and a selection of board games – a great social space for larger families and groups. Next is the first of the spacious super-king-size bedrooms with traditional shutters on the windows. Heading back to the hallway, you pass a large walk-in wet room with a shower area and WC. Moving through to the well-equipped kitchen, you’ll find a Stoves electric range cooker, fridge, freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and a large social dining area. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large utility area with a washing machine and small WC; the back door here gives access to the garden. Heading back to the hall and stairway to the first floor, you have a twin room to your left. Entering the large open upper hallway atrium gives access to two single bedrooms with adjoining doors to two of three large super-king-size bedrooms. Completing the property are two large family bathrooms with separate baths, WCs, and walk-in showers.

Venture outside to the mature spacious garden with seating areas, to enjoy your morning coffee or enjoy a nice glass of wine, and spot the red squirrels. Ample off-road parking is available directly next to the house.

Lovely house, well equipped and so spacious, very good for families and the smaller lounge is good as a play room as you can see into there from the kitchen through a hatch. Lovely bedding and towels and comfy beds. Great garden and lovely views. Dollar is very close and good for local shops and the pub is great too. Definitely worth returning

Wonderful house in beautiful setting. Our grandson didnt want to leave. The space inside the house was brilliant for the kids to run around and lovely to spend time together in the kitchen, cooking and eating. Bedrooms were huge and beds very comfortable. Weather was perfect and we even had a bbq outside. We visited local attractions including SconRead moree Palace and Blair Drummond safari park. The gardens were super for playing games and spotting wildlife, including badgers, hares and squirrels. Hide
