Tighnuilt, The Cobbles, Kinnesswood, Kinross, KY13

Charming village home overlooking Loch Leven in the heart of Kinnesswood.


Description

Tighnuilt is a charming detached family home dating from around 1880, extending to approximately 2,271 sq ft. Full of character and period charm, the property has been thoughtfully updated over the years and enjoys wonderful views across Loch Leven.
The main entrance is on the south-west side of the house and opens directly into the kitchen, which was renovated in 2021. A bright and spacious room, it is fitted with a good range of units, a Stoves induction hob, built-in fridge and Bosch dishwasher. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large drying room, providing a practical space for laundry and outdoor clothing throughout the year.
The utility room lies just off the kitchen and offers additional storage and appliance space, together with direct access to the parking area behind the house. From the kitchen, a door leads through to the dining room, a generous reception space with a built-in bookcase, two useful storage cupboards and access to the garden.
At the centre of the home is a welcoming hallway which connects the principal rooms. The sun room, originally the front porch of the house, enjoys lovely views over the garden and across Loch Leven, making it an ideal place to sit and enjoy the surroundings.
The sitting room is particularly attractive, retaining many traditional features including decorative ceiling cornicing, a wood-burning stove and an Edinburgh press. Large windows frame the views towards Loch Leven and fill the room with natural light.
Bedroom 1 occupies a similar position on the opposite side of the hall and is a spacious double bedroom with beautiful loch views. Bedroom 5, currently used as a study and spare double bedroom, offers excellent flexibility. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a family bathroom, renovated in 2018 and fitted with a modern suite including a separate shower.
Throughout the ground floor, original details such as working shutters, decorative cornicing and an ornate archway in the hallway add to the property's character.
Upstairs, a central landing leads to three further double bedrooms, all of which benefit from elevated views towards Loch Leven and built-in storage. A family bathroom with bath, WC and wash hand basin serves this floor, alongside a useful airing cupboard.
Outside, the property is surrounded by attractive gardens. There is private parking for three cars, a garage and garden shed, together with a rear lawn, vegetable patch and a recently landscaped patio area. To the front, a tiered garden is planted with a variety of established shrubs and flower beds, creating an attractive setting from which to enjoy the outstanding views over Loch Leven.
