The Cottar House is a late 18th-century detached cottage in Dalguise, newly refurbished to provide comfortable modern living while retaining original character. Set on the edge of Tay Forest Park, the property offers three double bedrooms across two floors, a generous storage area, and a well-landscaped garden with fruit trees, a summer house and single garage.
Upstairs contains the principal living spaces: a kitchen with a raised decked terrace for outdoor dining, a living room with fireplace, one double bedroom and the family bathroom. Two further double bedrooms and a large storage area sit on the lower level, offering flexible use for bedrooms, hobbies or additional storage. The home totals approximately 990 sq ft and is offered freehold.
The location is a major draw: quiet hamlet living four miles from Dunkeld, immediate access to forest tracks, walking, cycling, fishing and nearby attractions such as The Hermitage and Loch of the Lowes. The cottage has extensive countryside views and a peaceful garden for outdoor enjoyment.
Buyers should note material drawbacks factually: the EPC is rated D, there is only one bathroom for three double bedrooms, broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and the wider area is described as very deprived. Mobile signal is excellent, but the rural location means some services are limited and commuting requires private transport.
