Enveloped by rolling hills and green fields, Auchterarder promises an increasingly sought-after town and country lifestyle with wonderful local services, amenities and outdoor pursuits to suit every taste.

The town is positioned just north of the Ochhil Hills, and its convenient location just off the A9 allows swift commuter links to both Perth and Stirling. The historic town is perhaps best known as the home of the world-renowned Gleneagles Hotel – a five-star resort boasting world-class golf facilities and the only two- Michelin-star restaurant in Scotland. The town earned the moniker ‘The Lang Toun’ owing to its High Street, which is the longest main street in Scotland measuring over a mile! The street is lined with a charming range of independent shops including a greengrocer and florist, a bakery and a Simon Howie butcher, as well as a small supermarket and no shortage of cafes, takeaways, restaurants and pubs. In addition to several prestigious golf courses, Auchterarder and neighbouring Gleneagles offer a whole range of outdoor activities and attractions for locals and visitors alike – from country sports and equestrian, to historic castle tours and distillery visits. Nursery, primary and secondary schooling is provided locally at The Community School of Auchterarder. The town benefits from local bus services and rail links to Aberdeen, Dundee, Glasgow, Inverness, Perth and London from Gleneagles station. Tucked at the end of an exclusive cul-de- sac development in Auchterarder, this four-bedroom detached house promises a contemporary family home of unrivalled style, space and luxury. The stunning property by SG Homes has been cleverly designed over three levels to take full advantage of its southernmost position, and yields unobstructed views across rural fields, rolling hills and woodland, whilst also offering fantastic flexibility.

Externally the house boasts a low-maintenance, landscaped garden to the rear, as well as a neat lawn, a double driveway and an integral single garage to the front.

The house makes a striking first impression with its timber and glass entrance, and inside awaits an exceptionally light and airy hall with oak flooring and neutral décor. Positioned on the first floor, the open-plan living area enjoys elevated views and wonderful all-day sun courtesy of full-height windows to the south, east and west. This vast and versatile space falls naturally into dedicated zones for cooking, dining and relaxing, and flows almost seamlessly onto a suntrap patio. Enclosed by a polished-stone breakfast bar, the sleek handleless kitchen is finished in stylish grey and white hues, and is replete with a range of Smeg integrated appliances, including a five-burner gas hob with a stainless steel cooker hood, an electric single oven/grill, a combination microwave oven, a dishwasher, and a fridge freezer.
