5 Bed First & Second Floor Flat - Offers Over £435,000
A substantial and exceptionally spacious five-bedroom duplex apartment forming part of an impressive Victorian villa in the heart of Pitlochry, enjoying panoramic views over the Tummel Valley and within easy walking distance of the town's many amenities.
No.4 occupies the upper two floors of a handsome former hotel which was thoughtfully converted into four apartments in 2006. With its private main door entrance, generous accommodation extending to approximately 3,500 sq ft (325 m²), and a detached double garage with additional parking, No.4 offers a rare opportunity to acquire a home of remarkable scale and character in one of Highland Perthshire's most desirable towns. The property retains many attractive period features, including high ceilings, traditional cornicing, picture rails, working window shutters and deep skirting boards, while benefitting from modern upgrades such as double glazing throughout, zoned gas central heating and contemporary bathrooms.
The private entrance is accessed via the original main doorway, complete with feature bell push, to a grand staircase and up to the principal accommodation. The first floor forms the main living space and is centred around a large and welcoming hall, with a superb double-aspect lounge with panoramic bay windows enjoying uninterrupted south-facing views across Pitlochry and the Tummel Valley. A similarly impressive double-aspect dining room also benefits from large bay windows and abundant natural light.
Additional reception space includes a study and a further flexible reception room, currently used as a gym, which opens onto a south-west facing balcony. All reception rooms on this level enjoy high ceilings, traditional architectural detailing and window shutters. The bright and spacious kitchen comfortably accommodates informal dining and is complemented by a separate pantry and utility room, providing extensive storage and practical workspace. Also on this level is a traditional Victorian WC fitted with Fired Earth sanitary ware.
The upper floor provides extensive family accommodation including 4 double bedrooms, one of which benefits from an en-suite shower room, along with a family bathroom and a separate family shower room. A further large room, currently used as an artist's studio, provides excellent flexibility and could easily serve as an additional bedroom or creative workspace. Bathrooms are fully tiled and benefit from Velux windows providing natural light and ventilation.
The property benefits from two garden areas. The south garden has been left largely natural and includes a secluded arbour seating area, while the north garden features a generous cobble-paved patio and a charming enclosed “secret garden” accessed through a mature hedge archway and kids entrance. The space currently includes a play area with slide, swing and playhouse.
A detached double garage, constructed in 2011 in traditional style with stone facing and slate roof, provides excellent storage as well as parking. The garage forecourt allows parking for two further vehicles, with an additional allocated space near the entrance.
Offering a rare combination of space, character and location, with a substantial layout, panoramic views, private entrance, parking, gardens & double garage. An exceptional home ideally suited to a large family, multi-generational living or those seeking flexible accommodation in a prime Highland location.

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.
