Registered smallholding on the outskirts of Rattray, Blairgowrie, Perthshire.
Well-fenced 2-acre grazing paddock with mains-fed water trough. Ideal for sheep, domestic cows, chickens, horses/ponies etc.
Paddock slopes quite steeply, but plenty of flat areas if you want to put in raised vegetable beds or a poly-tunnel.
Cottage is a typical chocolate-box pretty dwelling dated 1900, but has been considerately extended to provide 4 double bedrooms (1 with en-suite shower) and huge family bathroom.
Small field shelter could easily convert to hen house. For equine enthusiasts there’s loads of off-road hacking, and a farm half a mile away that offers both indoor and outdoor arenas if you’re into schooling your horse/pony.

The cottage is situated down a track off a small road, so is super-safe for children, dogs, cats and any other pets.
You have the best of both worlds – total rural privacy with all the amenities of friendly, thriving Blairgowrie Town on the doorstep. (http://www.discoverblairgowrie.co.uk/ (http://www.discoverblairgowrie.co.uk/)). The wonderful cities of Perth and Dundee are both approximately a half-hour drive.
The cottage’s garden is a total suntrap and is bordered by a magnificent dry-stone wall.
An added extra is a timber-clad lodge, providing ideal self-contained accommodation for visiting family or friends, or for an older child reaching independence, or indeed an elderly relative. The lodge is fully insulated, very comfy, and designed for year-round use.
It’s on the market at £349,950 – this is £10,000 below its Home Report valuation.
