About this property

  • The Lodge is a contemporary single storey home built to a one-off design by Mozolowski & Murray. With cedar-clad walls, wrap around decking and a fabulous verandah, the house has a distinctive and attractive exterior. The acommodation has been finished to a high standard; it is well insulated with highly specified double glazed windows framing peaceful rural views from every room. Four double bedrooms are arranged on either side of the U-shaped building and there is also a family room, a study and a boot room/ utility room. At the heart of the house is the open plan sitting/dining /kitchen. This room is both cosy and bright with its wall of glazing and wood burning stove. The kitchen has an island separating it from the central dining area. It is perfect for everyday life and for entertaining.

    Outside
    There is space to park several cars on the gravelled area to the front of The Lodge and the remainder of the garden blends seamlessly into the wider countryside. Deer and red squirrels regularly enjoy the peace of the garden and nearby woodland. A sheltered courtyard with barbeque area and hot tub can be enjoyed in all weathers while on the opposite side of the house the main living room opens to an expansive south facing verandah.

    Garden room
    Also built by Mozolowski & Murray, the garden room is served with light and power and is currently used as a workshop and store. It could, however, be easily adapted for use as a studio or a home office, depending on requirements.

    Fuel shed
    A useful timber shed houses the oil tank and provides a great place to stack and dry logs as well as storing garden tools.

Local information

  • The Lodge at South Cairnies is situated in rolling farmland in Glenalmond on the southern fringe of the highlands.
  • Although its location is very rural, amenities are not far away in Perth and Crieff which are both within 11 miles of The Lodge. Perth is well served with transport links, shops and professional services as well as two leisure centres, a concert hall, theatre, cinema, museum and gallery. Gleneagles Hotel and golf courses are about 13 miles away and only a few hundred metres from The Lodge is the new Centre for Excellence for Golf which has been established at Glenalmond College's 18 hole golf course. Membership is available for local residents. There are also golf courses at Perth, Crieff, Muthill and Comrie. Fishing, shooting, stalking, horse riding, hillwalking and cycling are all popular pursuits in the area and there are some lovely walks directly from the house.
  • Edinburgh, Perth and Dundee are all within easy commuting distance of The Lodge which is also well placed for schooling. There is a primary school in Harrietfield, a choice of secondary schooling in Perth and private schooling at Glenalmond College (about 1 mile away), Morrisons Academy and Ardvreck Preparatory school in Crieff and Strathallan, Kilgraston and Craigclowan which are all on the outskirts of Perth.
