Lochlane Smiddy is a spacious, recently refurbished traditional cottage set in almost 3 acres of mature south-facing grounds. The house was extended and modernised in 2019, creating a flowing single‑level layout with a large open-plan kitchen/dining area, a lofty south-facing sitting room with wood-burning stove, and generous utility/boot rooms. The separate double garage includes a furnished one‑bedroom annexe suitable for relatives, guests or potential short‑term letting.
The garden is a major asset: sheltered terraces, herbaceous borders, greenhouse, vegetable plots, raised beds, chicken run and meadows with mown paths provide immediate outdoor enjoyment and scope for further landscaping or smallholding uses. The property sits in a quiet rural corridor between Crieff and Comrie, with Gleneagles and Perth within comfortable driving distance — good for schooling, local shops and countryside recreation.
Practical points are straightforward but important. The EPC is rated E and heating is oil‑fired with private drainage. Broadband speeds are very slow despite excellent mobile signal. Council tax is in a high band. The sale is subject to existing servitude rights and wayleaves; purchasers should satisfy themselves on these and on any planning or consent matters.
This home suits buyers who value rural space, mature gardens and flexible accommodation — families wanting room to grow, buyers seeking a liveable country base with potential for small‑scale productive use, or those wanting an annexe for extended family. It’s been well renovated but still offers further scope to personalise and to improve energy performance over time.
