Iain Paterson of Galbraith, who is handling the sale, said: “This is a wonderful family home which would be ideal as an equestrian property, or for those interested in establishing a smallholding. The setting is very pretty, providing privacy and tranquillity and yet just a couple of miles from Abernethy and four miles from Bridge of Earn. Both the house and the grounds are very well presented and the property offers a superb rural lifestyle.”

The property has light and airy reception spaces including a well presented kitchen-dining room and an attractive sitting room with a wood burning stove.

There is a generous master bedroom with en-suite and ample storage, as well as a further two double bedrooms, family bathroom and a study or fourth bedroom.

The property has a bank of solar panels on the roof which benefit from a Feed In Tariff. The setting provides lovely views over the surrounding countryside and down to the River Tay.

Glencroft sits within its own well maintained gardens. There is a good sized gravel parking area which has an electric car charging point, leading from this is a wraparound patio which provides ample seating space for outdoor dining, hosting friends and family, and enjoying the views. To the front is a lovely lawn area with hedging to provide privacy from the road.

The land area extends to approximately 10 acres, including grazing land.

There is natural shelter provided by trees and hedging and the paddocks have been maintained in excellent condition. Adjacent to the house is the stable block with two spacious loose boxes, a lean-to hardstanding area which leads to the paddocks, and a further lean-to providing storage and a shelter area suitable for sheep and goats. There is also a useful round pen which is ideal for working with horses.

Glencroft is two miles south of Abernethy, a pretty village equipped with essential day-to-day facilities including a primary school. Bridge of Earn, a popular and historic village is just over four miles north west and provides further facilities.

The M90 which links Perth to Edinburgh, is easily accessible, while the city of Perth is 15 minutes by car.

Glencroft is for sale through Galbraith for Offers Over £460,000.
