4 Bed Detached Villa - Offers Over £600,000
J&H Mitchell are delighted to bring this beautifully presented four bedroom house situated in the village of Weem to the market.
This stunning house is in walk-in condition and would make a wonderful family home or holiday retreat. It enjoys an elevated position with uninterrupted views over the valley to the local hills. Set well back from the road, this lovely home is in a peaceful location but is still convenient for the local amenities Aberfeldy offers.
This impressive house is designed to look like an old traditional house which has been lovingly restored but is in fact only around 20 years old. The approach up the driveway shows off the turret which gives the house its name and you arrive at the front door with the views off to your right. Turret House has oil central heating, with underfloor heating downstairs and radiators upstairs.
Enter into a spacious and inviting hallway which leads through to the large living room with half circle bay windows to the front and a woodburning stove set in a fireplace with a wooden mantel shelf above. The flooring is slate effect tiling which extends through to the adjoining kitchen.
The kitchen has a large range of wall and floor units and an island unit with granite worktop. There is a built-in electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and fridge freezer and plenty space for a large dining table if desired. There is a glazed door onto the patio area to the front. The adjacent utility room has an additional sink, boiler and spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer. A good sized double bedroom and a shower room complete the ground floor accommodation.
The upper floor is accessed by a timber spiral staircase with a beautifully made curved wooden banister. The landing accesses bedrooms 2 and 3 with a family bathroom. The master bedroom suite is to the end of the corridor and consists of a large bedroom with en-suite shower room and two sets of built-in double wardrobes.
Externally, there is a large driveway to the house and a car port on the end which is currently used as a bin store and drying area. There is a patio area to the front with a wooden fence partitioning the area from the driveway. The ground slopes downwards in front of the house with a path running through a wildlife area of trees and shrubs. At the rear of the house, there is a wood store and 2 garden sheds. Steps lead up to the raised garden area at the back where there is a meandering path through the trees and potential to create an elevated seating area if desired.
Weem is a small village only a few miles from Aberfeldy which benefits from having both primary and secondary schools, a health centre, a community cinema and various sports facilities, including a golf course and tennis courts.

Aberfeldy
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.
