This individually designed converted-barn home blends striking architectural detail with low-running, renewable energy systems. Exposed oak framing, stained glass and floor-to-ceiling glazing create a bright, characterful interior while underfloor heating from a ground source heat pump and photovoltaic panels keep ongoing costs lower than a typical rural house.
Accommodation is flexible and family-friendly: three well-proportioned ground-floor bedrooms (one with en‑suite and direct garden access), a dramatic double-height lounge with woodburning stove, a generous open-plan dining kitchen and a fourth bedroom suite accessed via a spiral staircase. A separate utility and a studio/garage add practical workspace or leisure options.
The private, sheltered gardens and substantial footprint (circa 1,617 sq ft) suit indoor–outdoor family living and hobbies. Connectivity is strong for a rural location (excellent mobile signal, fast broadband) and local amenities in Freuchie plus rail links from nearby towns put wider services within easy reach.
Buyers should note some material points: the property sits in an area listed as deprived and council tax is above average (Band E). The house is sold as seen and purchasers should satisfy themselves on condition and consents; the style and spiral access to the top-floor bedroom may not suit everyone. There is a closing date for offers (Friday 5th September at 12 noon).
