2 Bed Terraced Villa - Offers Over £200,000
9 Cuil-an-Daraich is a beautifully presented two bedroom house in walk-in condition, located in the small village of Logierait. Most of the windows in the house face south so it is bright and inviting.
This lovely home was converted around 2001 from the former laundry house building for the adjacent Cuil-an Daraich house. The building was originally built as a poor house in 1864 and has subsequently been an old person’s home, a heritage centre and a guest house.
The house is entered from the rear car park into the upper floor of the house. A stair leads down to the lower floor and the main living area, where there is an attractive and bright living room with a woodburning stove, space for a dining table if desired and French doors that open onto the patio area.
The kitchen has a range of beech effect wall and floor units with a tiled splashback. There is an integrated electric oven and hob and space for a fridge freezer and washing machine.
On the upper floor, there are two double bedrooms, both with windows facing to the south and beautiful views to the River Tay and over the fields to the hills beyond. The bathroom is located on this floor and consists a bath with electric shower, WC, WHB and heated towel rail and has tiling around the bath.
Externally to the front of the house there is a paved and gravelled garden area with some shrubs, a small shed and a garden bench. A gate leads to a footpath, which leads to down to the road. The first section of this is owned by No 9 and the ongoing path along the front is shared with other properties in the building.
To the rear, there is a large car park which serves the whole building. No 9 owns the parking area immediately outside the door which can accommodate two vehicles and currently has a small shed occupying part of one space. There is a shared responsibility with the rest of the building to care for the driveway, which has recently been upgraded and the access through the rest of the car park.
Some furniture and white goods are available by separate negotiation.
Please note, the overall building is Grade C listed. This listing is usually applied to buildings of special architectural or historical interest which are good examples of a particular period, style or type. In this case a C listing does not prevent alterations, it simply requires that listed building permission must be sought in advance. Further information is available from Historic Environment Scotland.

Pitlochry, Kenmore
HIGHLAND Perthshire is widely acknowledged to be among the most scenic areas Scotland has to offer, acting as the gateway to the Cairngorm National Park, where development is strictly controlled.
Pitlochry lies in the shadow of 2759 feet Ben Vrackie and has long been a key halt on the north-south route linking the Lowlands with the Highlands, with her railway station dating back to the Victorian era.
Villas and the occasional extravagant tower dot the hillside and while it thrives as a year-round holiday destination encouraged by the Theatre in the Hills, The Etape Caledonia and The Enchanted Forest, a strong sense of community endures.
Like Pitlochry, the nearby town of Aberfeldy boasts a distillery and its own secondary school, along with an impressive recreation centre. Poet Robert Burns Birks o Aberfeldy helped put the town on the tourist map.
Kenmore, a village which can justifiably lay claim to be the prettiest in Perthshire, is tucked between the expanse of Loch Tay and the river which emerges from it en route to the North Sea.
Dunkeld is instantly identifiable thanks to its 1809 Thomas Telford designed, seven arch bridge linking with Birnam on the southern bank of the Tay, a medieval cathedral and the cluster of restored whitewashed cottages around The Cross and ornate Atholl Memorial Fountain.
Properties in both Dunkeld and Birnam, which were by-passed by the A9 in the 1970s, tend to generate immediate interest when they come onto the market.
Many of them date back to 18th Century reconstruction demanded after all but a handful of older homes were destroyed by a battle in 1689.
Set within a National Scenic Area, theres no shortage of trails to explore, with The Hermitage and its magnificent trees and folly just a few miles up-river.
The railway station on the outskirts of Birnam provides an alternative to road links with Perth and the Royal School of Dunkeld can trace its history back 450 years and more.
Both villages have a thriving cultural scene and a visit to the pioneering Community Orchard near the bridge is always fruitful in the autumn months.
Stanley, near the River Tay, is one of the Big Countys planned villages, dating back to the 1780s.
It was developed on the back of the nearby six-storey cotton mills which provided local employment for nearly 200 years before finally shutting down in 1989. These listed buildings have been transformed from industrial heritage into in-demand apartments.
Nearby villages like Luncarty, four miles north of the Fair City, have been mushrooming - with the commute to Perth promising to be made even easier with ongoing A9 improvements.
