A spectacular house site with 58 acres and a far-reaching view
Drumcharry Farm, with planning permission for a house, is a rare opportunity to build a dream home in one of the most sought-after areas in Perthshire. Its 58 acres provide peace, privacy and the potential to pursue a range of interests and hobbies against the backdrop of some breath-taking scenery. The property is ideal for buyers interested in a productive garden, energy efficiency, livestock, trees, bees, bio-diversity and wildflowers, or who simply desire an incredibly private second home which is low maintenance and easy to lock up and leave.
Detailed planning permission has been approved (21/00777/AML) for the construction of a two storey, four-bedroom house designed by the Taylor Architecture Practice Ltd. The house is meant to blend subtly into its landscape while making the best of its spectacular views. Located on the southern edge of a flat area of land on the hillside, the plans position the house at a perpendicular angle to the existing shed, creating a sheltered courtyard at its entrance. The proposed house would be clad in a mixture of zinc tiles and Siberian larch with a living roof which blends into the hillside.
Outside
The house site at Drumcharry Farm is approached by a grass track which winds up the hillside until it reaches a plateau where there is an agricultural shed and a grassed house site. From here there is a stunning view over the River Lyon to the Tay valley. Sheep graze the surrounding land which has been partially divided up with new fencing. Birds of prey soar high above and deer are regular visitors. Tracks across the 58 acres make it accessible using an all-terrain vehicle. The ground has been maintained with biodiversity in mind. A hedge of hawthorn, hazel and blackthorn as well as a traditionally built drystone dyke form attractive boundaries to the potential garden area. A programme of native tree planting has also taken place over the last nine years.
