Lochton House is a fabulous and well proportioned late Georgian country house, believed to date from the 1820s. It occupies a very enviable position with outstanding views over the surrounding hills and to Fife, beyond the River Tay. There are also views to the east and the west and to King's Seat. It must be one of the most spectacular positions in the locality. It was originally built as a small mansion house for the Lochton Estate and is attributed to the architect James Black. Described by Historic Scotland as being a classical country house, it was superseded as the principal estate house when Lochton Castle was built in the 1850s. Occupying a commanding position, the B Listed house, which faces south, has well proportioned rooms arranged over four floors, including a lower ground floor, accessed from a spectacular central stair hall. The house has been fully refurbished to the highest of standards, and has beautifully presented accommodation. Over the last 18 years the sellers have created a very special family home with hugely impressive reception rooms, as well as good sized bedrooms upstairs. The lower ground floor has a cosy living room as well as the fine kitchen. They have also created stunning gardens and grounds, which together with the paddock, all add to the privacy and amenity. There is planning consent for a steading building to the side of the house, to create additional storage as well as garaging. Lochton House, as well as being a very well located and handsome house, is an exceptionally comfortable, well maintained and presented home, ideal for both hugely comfortable family living, and also for entertaining.

A tarred drive with an avenue of lime trees leads up to a gravelled sweep at the front of the house. Steps lead up to an Ionic columned front entrance with a door with fanlight to an impressive entrance hall, with flagstone flooring. An inner door opens to a fabulous circular stair hall, with a beautiful hanging staircase, lit by a cupola above, and again with a flagstone floor. Arranged off this are the principal reception rooms including an impressive drawing room with cornicing, built in display/book shelves with cupboards below either side of an open fireplace, dado rail, window shutters and a walk in drinks cupboard. The study has a fireplace with a wood burning stove, cornicing, window shutters, dado rail, built in shelves with cupboard below and a walk in shelved cupboard.

A secure cellar has stone and brick wine bins, while a further cloakroom has hanging rail and shelves and a separate WC with wash basin and window shutters.

Lochton House sits well within its own attractive gardens and grounds. In front are lawns and shrub borders, while to the side is an octagonal summer house. There are some fine mature trees. The circular tarred drive continues on past the back of the house where there is a boiler room with two wall mounted Worcester boilers, and a range of outbuildings including a garden store with water, power and light, a gym, and a log store and wood shed. Behind is a delightful sheltered and paved courtyard.
