Tayur HouseWaterside, Invergowrie, By Dundee, DD2 5DP

Tayur House is a stunning modern home, built to a high specification in 1991, close to the River Tay, with extensive grounds of some 5.2 acres, yet close to local amenities. It was built for the sellers on the site of a former cottage, and its ponds were once stone quarries. It is an attractive harled house, with a tiled roof, facing south towards the estuary, and while modern, has very much a traditional feel, with extensive, well laid out accommodation that is ideal for both modern family living and for entertaining. The house is well presented and has features such as mahogany doors, cornices in the hallway and principal reception rooms, double glazing with fully reversible mahogany windows and Amtico flooring in the kitchen, downstairs shower room, family bathroom and principal en suite. There are lovely views from upstairs over the river to Fife.

From a private road, which is shared with just ten other houses, a PatternPave drive with low level lighting leads up to parking at the front of the house where there is a turning circle and the garage. Steps lead up to doors opening to a porch with tiled floor and inner doors opening to an imposing and welcoming entrance hallway with six wall lights, two picture lights, a fine staircase with shelved under stair cupboard, further hanging and shelved cupboards and mahogany flooring. The drawing room is a lovely double aspect room with a centre rose, four wall lights, open fireplace with wooden mantel and double doors linking to the conservatory, creating a fabulous and linked entertaining space. The conservatory has a tiled floor, sun blinds and French doors to the garden. Also off the hallway is a study, which could be a further bedroom if required, with fitted desk and units, and a partially tiled shower room with pedestal wash basin and WC. In addition there is a formal dining room, while adjacent is a library with fitted Hammonds desk and shelved units, and there is also a comfortable family room which has two wall lights and two picture lights. The adjacent triple aspect, well appointed and fully fitted kitchen has wooden wall and floor units with a dresser, tiled splashbacks, low level lighting and ample space for informal dining. Appliances include an ATAG fridge/freezer with water and ice dispenser, AEG oven and grill, Miele dishwasher, sink, ATAG four ring gas hob with extractor, together with an island unit with marble worktop, ATAG Teppanyaki grill and extractor and an AEG microwave. A partially tiled utility room has units with a sink, Miele washing machine, Lamona dryer, Santo fridge/freezer and a door to the garden. Off the utility room is a WC with wash basin, and a boiler cupboard housing a Churchill electric boiler.

The staircase leads up to a first floor landing with four wall lights and dado rail. Bedroom two has a dado rail, built in wardrobe and an en suite with shower, wash basin and WC. Bedroom three is double aspect and has a fitted dressing table and wardrobes. The spacious principal bedroom has a dado rail, built in hanging and shelved wardrobes and an en suite with a spa bath, shower cubicle, double wash basins with vanity unit and WC. The family bathroom is partially tiled with a bath, pedestal wash basin, bidet and WC, and adjacent is bedroom four.

The garden around the house is mainly lawn with trees and shrubs. There is a vintage telephone box feature, and the garden is screened in front by a hedge. There is a wooded area by the lane. On the other side of the house is a garage, again harled with a tiled roof, with a garage with up and over door, a tool shed, and two interlinking offices. These buildings may have potential for conversion to ancillary accommodation, subject to any necessary consents. There is also a dog kennel and run, and a PatternPave seating area overlooking the larger of the two ponds. There is space for creating a launching area and opportunities for boating, fishing and amenity. The second pond is situated on the other side of the railway line with access from Station Road.
