The property
Aros is a wonderful former rectory dating from around 1870 which provides more than 3,700 sq. Ft of elegant, stylish accommodation including five bedrooms and well-proportioned reception rooms. The current owners have significantly updated the house in recent years to form a lovely family sized house in the heart of Strathtay. In addition to the main house there is a two bedroom cottage and a 1 bedroom studio apartment in the former outbuilding behind the house. These currently provide a significant income as rental/holiday properties and can also be used as additional ancillary accommodation. The main house has a impressive reception hall with wooden parquet flooring and doors leading to the main reception rooms. These include the 28ft, dual aspect drawing room with south-facing bay window, tall sash windows, ornate ceiling rose and marble fireplace with a woodburning stove. There is also a study and a family room, as well as a large, bright conservatory, providing further space in which to relax. Towards the rear of the property, the outstanding 29ft kitchen/breakfast room has natural stone tiled flooring, a cast-iron gas fireplace and ample space for a large family dining table and additional seating. The kitchen itself has shaker-style units in white, as well as a rangemaster cooker, while the utility room, boot room, larder and wine cellar provide further space for storage.

Upstairs there are five beautifully appointed double bedrooms, including the generous principal bedroom with its en suite walk-in shower room. One further bedroom is en suite, while another has Jack and Jill access to the family bathroom. All bedrooms benefit from built-in wardrobes.

The outbuilding has been tastefully restored to provide a cottage on the first floor comprising an open-plan sitting area and kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room. On the ground floor, with independent access, is a generously appointed studio.

Outside
The property can be accessed via an impressive gated entrance with elegant electric gates and a private driveway leading to the large parking area at the front of the house. The cottages are located behind the house, and there is also a large ‘U’ shaped outbuilding for storage or workshop space, as well as a brick built greenhouse. The property is surrounded by extensive, well maintained gardens to all sides, including immaculate rolling lawns, gravel beds and pathways and paved terracing for outdoor dining. There are also various establish- ed shrubs and hedgerows and a wealth of mature trees, with the garden backing onto beautiful open countryside.

Location
The property is set in the small and picturesque village of Strathtay, in the heart of the Perthshire Highlands, surrounded by breathtaking countryside and mountain views. Strathtay has local shops and amenities, while the popular market town of Aberfeldy is five miles away, providing a range of everyday amenities, including schools, shops, restaurants, cafés and other facilities. Nine miles away, Pitlochry offers further shopping and amenities, with primary and secondary schooling is available in both towns. The city of Perth, 26 miles away, is accessed via the A9 and provides further amenities and a mainline station. The area provides a magnificent setting for walking, cycling, climbing, riding and other outdoor pursuits, with the mountains of Ben Law and Schiehallion within easy reach.
