Taigh Uilltanach, Fearnan, Aberfeldy, Perthshire, PH15

A stylish home in a spectacular waterside setting

Description

Taigh Uilltanach is a striking modern house completed in 2004. It is discreet and private, being screened from the village by a neat hedge. The unassuming entrance to Taigh Uilltanach reveals a hidden gem, overlooking its own shingle beach on the shores of Loch Tay. The property has been perfectly designed to capture a far reaching and uninterrupted view up the loch and to the hills beyond. Being single storey with a slate roof and timber frame, its modern design has traditional elements that enable it to sit very comfortably in its surroundings. Taigh Uilltanach has been a much loved holiday home for the last 20 years and it would now benefit from some refurbishment. Internally it has an open plan sitting/dining room with a woodburning stove. The principal bedroom has an en suite bathroom at the west end of the house and there are two further double bedrooms and a bathroom at the east end. All bedrooms have built in storage and floor to ceiling windows framing views of Loch Tay. The kitchen and utility room are at the rear of the house where there is a large timber-framed car port framing the main entrance.

Outside
Taigh Uilltanach sits in just under half an acre of garden which has been landscaped so that the property almost feels as though it is floating on the loch. Gabion baskets edge a neat front lawn and separate it from the shingle beach where the water laps on the shoreside. Solid timber gates ensure complete privacy from the roadside once they are closed.
