The Control Tower, Tower Wynd, Clathymore, Tibbermore, PH1

An inspirational contemporary home close to Perth

Description

Converted in 2020, The Control Tower was originally a World War II control tower for what was then known as Findo Gask Airfield. It is now the centrepiece of the exclusive residential development at Clathymore; occupying the largest plot and having a distinctive shape that sets it apart from its neighbours. The Control Tower has been converted and finished to the very highest of standards with all floors and stairs being engineered Chambord Aquitaine Oak. It has an impressive interior, styled beautifully against a backdrop of uplifting views.

The glazed entrance hall has a lift and a staircase connecting the ground, first and second floors. Three of the property’s four bedrooms are situated on the ground floor (with bedroom 4 currently used as an office). Bedrooms 2 and 3 have en suite shower rooms fitted with True Stone shower trays and finished with Porcelanosa floor and wall tiles. There is also a utility room with a Belfast sink, washing machine and tumble drier. The main bathroom is also on this floor and is finished with Fired Earth floor tiles and a free standing Amalfi Slipper Bath.

The first floor comprises of one main bedroom suite complete with its own separate dressing room and bathroom. Adjoining, is a large drawing room which encompasses a suspended sunroom. The bathroom is fitted with a large shower with True Stone shower tray as well as an Amalfi Barcelona free standing bath and is finished with Fired Earth floor tiles, wall tiles and vanity unit.

The heart of the house house is arguably on the second floor which is almost completely occupied by an open plan kitchen/living/dining room. The Kitchen is fitted to a high standard with units from Kitchen International, an electric AGA, Sub Zero fridge, freezer and wine fridge and a walk-in pantry. There is a a wrap around balcony with views to the hills, lots of space for comfortable seating and also for a large dining table. Brand Van Egmond Kelp lighting can be adjusted to make this area ideal for day to day living as well as entertaining. There is a powder room on this level, which is finished with wall tiles by Fired Earth and a custom made split circular mirror.


At the top of the house on the third floor is a sunroom with floor-to-ceiling glazing and far reaching views across the countryside. From here there is access to an expansive roof terrace; a thrilling place to enjoy sunshine or night skies.

Garage/outbuilding
Beside The Control Tower is a triple garage complete with an integral workshop, which would easily garage a 4th car. The garage is heated and finished with professional epoxy flooring. The gym, kitchen and shower are all fitted out to the same high specification as the Tower, with the same oak flooring and doors. The glass bi-folding doors open onto a sheltered granite slabbed patio. This versatile building can be adapted further depending on requirements and, like The Control Tower, has been constructed to the highest of standards.


Garden
The garden at The Control Tower extends to just over 1.5 acres. It is mainly enclosed by neat beech hedging with young trees planted strategically around its edges and lining the curved driveway. The garden is secured with double electric wooden gates and the lawns are managed by a robotic gps mower. Attractive hard landscaping has been designed around the base of the tower, providing sheltered areas to enjoy this inspirational country home.
