Substantial, double-fronted Edwardian house in Crieff with 5 ensuite bedrooms, a sweeping drive and walled gardens. Recently a B&B, full of character and potential.
James Cottage is a substantial and handsome Edwardian house, set on a lovely corner plot in the heart of Crieff. Double-fronted and built of sandstone, it has real kerb appeal, with bay windows to the front and side, a wooden entry porch and a low extension to the side, all framed by mature trees and shrubs. There are gardens to the front, and to the back a sweeping drive and beautifully maintained private gardens, enclosed by a high, traditionally built stone wall that is perfectly in keeping with the period of the house.
With five bedrooms and five bathrooms, and until recently run as a bed and breakfast, this is a house with generous proportions, extending to approximately 220 m², and so much potential. It will make a wonderful family home, and there are great possibilities and options for the new owners.
A gravelled and paved front garden leads to the wooden porch, which has its original encaustic tiles underfoot, and the original pitch pine semi-glazed front door. Inside, the carpeted hallway is a lovely welcome, with a graceful staircase, cast-iron tulip design spindles and the original wooden banister. To the left is a large dining room with a bay window. To the right is an equally large room with its own bay window, currently used as a bedroom, with an ensuite shower room and a press cupboard.
Further into the house, past the stairs and the understairs cupboard, the large sitting room has a stone fireplace with a gas living flame effect fire in the hearth. Doors lead off to the conservatory, with its dark wood frame and French doors to the patio and back garden, a bright additional sitting room. The kitchen overlooks the side and back of the house and is fitted with white units, a dark grey granite effect worktop and breakfast bar, and grey tiled splashback. It is wonderfully well equipped for a keen cook, with a large commercial range with four electric ovens and six gas burners beneath a stainless steel hood, plus a dishwasher and under-counter fridge. There is also a handy pantry corner for storage.
A door from the kitchen leads into a corridor, taking you to a bathroom with a white bath, WC and basin, and then on to a second ground-floor bedroom with built-in wardrobes. At the very back of the house, a large utility room has plenty of space for washing machines, a boot room, muddy dogs and everything else that comes with a busy household.
Upstairs there are three large double bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom.
The property offers a wealth of character and charm, with generous and versatile accommodation that provides an excellent opportunity for a growing family. With its flexible layout, there is also exciting potential for multi-generational living, as the kitchen wing could easily be separated or adapted to offer its own private entrance, if desired.
Contents of the property are available by separate negotiation.
The back garden is a real highlight. A large tarmac drive provides off-street parking for several cars, and there is a paved patio area, perfect for outdoor dining. Beyond is a delightful, well-maintained garden with a well-tended lawn, colourful mature shrubs, a picturesque willow tree and a variegated holly.
What the Owners Love Most:
The garden, and the wonderful location in this charming county town.
Location:
Crieff is a charming Perthshire county town, nestled at the foot of the Highlands in the beautiful Glen of Strathearn, with a lovely mix of independent shops, cafes and eateries, everyday amenities, health services and a real community feel.
The ever-popular Crieff Hydro, with all its amenities, is a much-loved local landmark. Families are well served for schooling, with the independent Ardvreck and Morrison's Academy both in the town, and the Strathearn Community Campus offers a sports centre and swimming pool for all the family.
The surrounding countryside is wonderful, with fabulous walks right on the doorstep, and Glenturret distillery is very near, home to the two Michelin star Lalique restaurant. The road network makes it easy to reach Perth, Stirling and beyond.
