This converted farmhouse is an ideal family home

A farmhouse which has been beautifully extended and offering magnificent views is now available.

Presented for sale by Galbraith, Carpow Farmhouse is a delightful country property enjoying impressive views over the surrounding countryside, down to the River Tay and north to the Sidlaw hills.

The original cottage, of stone construction under a slated roof has been sympathetically extended, resulting in a well-proportioned family home.

The central hall leads directly to the dining room which enjoys a double aspect to the south and west and is partly open plan to the charming sitting room which enjoys the outstanding views over the garden and down towards the river.

The kitchen is reached directly from the hall and has a door leading to a conservatory which opens directly into the garden.
