Description

Constructed in 2011, this beautifully presented modern family home combines all the advantages of contemporary living with the peace and charm of a picturesque countryside setting. Surrounded by mature gardens and enjoying uninterrupted rural views, the property also includes an adjacent paddock extending to approximately 1.5 acres, offering fantastic lifestyle potential. Despite its tranquil location, Dundee City Centre is just a short drive away, making this an ideal home for those seeking the perfect balance between country living and city convenience.

A bright and welcoming L-shaped hallway sets the tone upon entering the home, creating an immediate sense of space and light. Glazed doors lead through to the impressive main living room, a warm and inviting space enhanced by panoramic countryside views and centred around a charming log-burning stove — the perfect focal point for cosy winter evenings.

Double doors open into the spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area, undoubtedly the heart of the home. The well-appointed kitchen offers an excellent range of floor and wall-mounted units, complemented by generous worktop space for food preparation and everyday family living. The dining area comfortably accommodates a large family table, making it ideal for entertaining and gatherings. Patio doors open directly onto the upper decked balcony, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living and providing a wonderful setting for al fresco dining while enjoying the surrounding scenery.

The ground floor also benefits from a generously sized double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, alongside a stylish contemporary shower room, offering flexible accommodation suitable for guests or multi-generational living.

Upstairs, the principal bedroom and a further spacious double bedroom both feature fitted wardrobes and dual-aspect windows, flooding the rooms with natural light throughout the day. The well-proportioned family bathroom is fitted with a modern three-piece suite and separate walk-in shower. Excellent storage is provided via a large walk-in cupboard, together with additional attic and eaves storage.

One of the property’s standout features is the stunning two-storey balcony overlooking the beautifully maintained rear gardens. Connected by an elegant spiral staircase, the balconies provide direct access into the garden and create superb outdoor spaces for relaxing or entertaining. Beneath the property, a substantial workshop/storage area runs the full length of the house and is accessed externally from the garden.

To the front, a mono-block driveway provides parking for three vehicles, with an additional gravelled area offering space for a further two cars.

Directly opposite the property lies the adjoining paddock and steading, extending to around 1.5 acres. Part of the land has been thoughtfully arranged as an allotment-style garden, while the remainder is currently utilised for horse grazing, making this an ideal opportunity for equestrian enthusiasts, hobby farming, or those simply seeking additional outdoor space.

This is a truly exceptional countryside home offering modern comfort, generous living accommodation, beautiful outdoor spaces, and outstanding lifestyle potential — all within easy reach of Dundee and surrounding amenities.
