Description

SITUATION
Bla Wearie is situated in a lovely rural setting adjacent to Forbes of Kingennie Country Resort whereby the golf course lies to the West and North. Despite its rural location the house is only 4 miles north of Broughty Ferry with the centre of Dundee and Monifieth also readily accessible. Between them Dundee, Broughty Ferry, Monifieth and Carnoustie offer an excellent range of shops, services and amenities with Aberdeen and Edinburgh within comfortable driving distance of the property.

Home to an array of wildlife, the surrounding area offers easy access to some particularly outstanding countryside with hill, wood, river, farmland and coastline all close by. The result is an excellent choice for the outdoor enthusiast with riding, walking, cycling and sailing all readily available. Golfers in particular are very well provided for; in addition to the course at Kingennie there are an excellent selection of highly regarded courses within easy striking distance including the Championship Course at Carnoustie and the Old Course at St. Andrews which both regularly host the British Open. State schooling is available locally with independent schooling being provided at the highly rated High School of Dundee. There are railway stations in Arbroath, Carnoustie, Monifieth, Broughty Ferry and Dundee, with Aberdeen airport to the north and Edinburgh airport to the south. The busy regional airport at Dundee offers a good range of short haul flights.

DESCRIPTION
Bla Wearie offers a lovely country house largely constructed of white painted rendered walls under a pitched slate roof with a sun room protruding to the south. Internally the house offers beautifully proportioned accommodation over two levels extending to about 208 sqm (plus useful attic room) and it is ideal for entertaining and modern family living. A hallway lies at the heart of the house which leads into the sun room, which has hard wood flooring and glazed double doors opening out to a garden terrace. Further doors lead off the hall to a lounge and sitting room/bedroom, which both have stoves. Also on the ground floor are a dining kitchen, which has a good range of fitted floor and wall cupboards and a sitting area as well as a utility room and a modern family bathroom.

The main bedroom accommodation is situated on the first floor and offers three good sized bedrooms and a recently upgraded shower room. A staircase leads up to an attic room, which benefits from Velux windows and offers a flexible and useful space.
