    About this property

    • Portghlas is a pretty, extended traditional cottage which now requires comprehensive refurbishment. Plans have recently been approved to replace the current extension with a contemporary two storey addition to the house providing comfortable open plan living spaces that make the best of the views and setting. Please refer to the Perth and Kinross Planning Portal using reference 24/01103/FLL for further details, or speak to the selling agent to obtain a copy of the approved plans.

      Garden and shore frontage
      Whilst the garden at Portghlas has become overgrown, there is huge potential to create a lovely sheltered garden behind the house. The newly approved plans for Portghlas also include the creation of a garage and a terrace. Over the road from Portghlas is about a third of an acre of ground on the lochside. With some sympathetic clearing and landscaping, this could become a magical part of the property providing direct access to Loch Tay.
