Features and description
Bothrie Farmhouse and Steading
Offers Over - £335,000
A rare opportunity to purchase a farmhouse with enviable views over the surrounding countryside, together with a range of potentially useful outbuildings providing a wealth of opportunity for reconfiguration.
Description
Bothrie Farmhouse is of a sought-after traditional style and construction, primarily consisting of a stone and lime block structure under a pitched timber framed slate covered roof. There is a well-proportioned conservatory atop a red brick dwarf wall on the southern elevation, which makes make the most of the magnificent and uninterrupted views south over the garden and beyond.
In its current configuration, Bothrie provides an entrance vestibule, kitchen/diner, bathroom, small office/study, dining room living room and conservatory on the ground floor, while the first floor includes a family bathroom, large airing cupboard and three double bedrooms.
Subject to securing the necessary planning permission, there is potential for reconfiguration and extension to create a uniform and near full width footprint to the rear under a new hipped roof with flat central section, thereby significantly increasing living space beyond the already generous 190m2 net internal area.
Adjacent to the farmhouse is a redundant and partially derelict steading which could be put to a variety of uses from storage and garages to stabling or workshops.
This desirable and relatively secluded location would allow one to fully appreciate some of rural Perthshire’s pastoral scenery and enjoy the full array of colours on display with the passing of the seasons, while still being within commuting distance of both Dundee and Perth. Lotting Info (if applicable).
Outside
Bothrie has a mature, if compact garden which wraps around the house on three sides (south, southeast and west). Mainly laid to lawn with a selection of established trees and shrubbery either side of a pleasing miniature ha-ha wall, which gives way to enviable views beyond that spread out to the south.
To the rear (north) there is a now largely redundant and partially derelict traditional steading including attractive roundel. Constructed of primarily sandstone block under a pitched timber framed and slate covered roof, the steading complex provides a wonderful opportunity to repurpose this area to a variety of uses. The north and westmost sections are now in need of attention, with remedial work to the wallheads required. These elevations might form the outside face to a new walled garden, subject to further reconfiguration, including the demolition and removal of now redundant internal walls. Equally, this space might be cleared to form a courtyard with adjacent stabling within the existing livestock pens within the southern section which remains intact, or to provide additional parking with workshop space, an artist’s studio or simply a large entertaining area.
Development potential
While planning permission has not been sought at Bothrie, it is felt there is some inherent hope value given the scale and layout of the available building envelope and current planning policy.
An example of what might be achievable can be found on Perth and Kinross’ Council's planning portal under planning reference: 21/02291/ipl and lying approximately a mile to the northeast at Powderwells, where a similarly shaped traditional steading has been granted permission to convert the redundant cattle court and former hayloft and roundel to residential use.
