Lovely single storey house, with annexe, and good views.
Pommern is a lovely single storey house, with the benefit of a fully self contained annexe which can be incorporated into the main body of the house, providing excellent flexibility. There are views over Montrose Basin, and it is very conveniently located. The name Pommern comes from one of the oldest wine producing villages in the Mosel region in Germany. The house, which dates from 1977, is built on the edge of the small hamlet of Rossie Mills, and makes the most of its position and views. The annexe, which is linked to the house, was added in the 1980s and at the same time the dining kitchen was extended, along with the addition of a sun room. As the place name suggests, Rossie Mills was the site of some mills on the edge of the basin, and a mill lade flows through the garden at Pommern. Rossie Mills is also situated at the junction of the A92 coast road and the A934 to Forfar, which allows easy access to surrounding towns, as well as to Dundee and Aberdeen. Pommern is an attractive house with a tiled roof, which benefits from double glazing and solar panels which help to reduce running costs. The annexe provides additional accommodation or could be used for holiday letting with the appropriate licence.
The accommodation is well presented and spacious, with the front facing rooms benefitting from the good views, while those to the rear look over a sheltered back garden. While modern, the house has traditional finishes such as cornices. The main area of garden is in front, overlooked by banking from where there is a lovely seating and viewing area. The drive leads up to tarred parking, with a central border. Steps lead to a covered entrance with a front door to a vestibule with an inner door to a hallway with hanging and shelved cupboards and hatch with attic ladder to partially floored roof space. A sitting room has picture windows and a connecting door to a spacious open plan dining kitchen. This has fitted units including a dresser unit, and NEFF appliances include a microwave, oven, warming drawer, induction hob with extractor, dishwasher and fridge/freezer. In addition there are tiled splashbacks, a sink, and a cupboard housing a Worcester wall mounted combination boiler. There is ample space for dining. Off this is a lobby with a back door to the garden and a WC with washbasin. A sunroom has a sliding door linking to garden decking. Also off the hallway is bedroom 1 with a built in wardrobe, while a tiled shower room has a shower cubicle, washbasin with vanity unit and WC. Bedroom 2 also has a built in wardrobe, while the principal bedroom has fitted wardrobes and bedside tables and a partially tiled en suite with shower cubicle, and a washbasin and WC with vanity unit.
A lobby links through to the self contained annexe where there is an inner hallway with hanging and shelved cupboards, one housing a Worcester wall mounted boiler. A living room has a picture window and opens through to a kitchenette with fitted units with a NEFF gas hob with extractor, sink and plumbing for a washing machine. Off this is a vestibule with an entrance door. Bedroom 4 has fitted cupboards and a partially tiled en suite with shower cubicle, washbasin and WC.
To the side of the house is a harled garage with a tiled roof, auto roller door, concrete floor, power and light. The lovely gardens in front of the house are mainly lawn and enclosed by hedges, with paved seating areas, flower and shrub borders. There is a wooden garden shed (2.4m x 2.7m approx.) with a lean to and log store. The garden runs down to the original mill lade over which is a small bridge leading to banking on the other side with rhododendrons. The lade is overlooked by a wooden summer house with a wood burning stove, power and light, and a covered veranda, ideal for sitting out. Steps lead up to the top of the bank. The back garden is mainly lawn, linked to the house by decking, and has a wooden garden shed (3.6m x 1.8m approx.) with power and light.

It’s the fabulous Montrose Basin location that makes this property special for me; plus the convenience of ground floor living and a self contained annexe.
