This substantial two-storey residence is part of a notable Victorian villa in Crieff, showcasing the architectural charm typical of the era. Built circa 1890, the property retains many original features that can be further enhanced or restored, providing an excellent opportunity for renovation. The entrance vestibule greets you with its Victorian floor tiles and striking stained glass, leading into a grand reception hall adorned with original timber flooring and a multi-fuel stove fireplace. This space has historically served as a family dining area but could be transformed into an entertaining hub with some modern updates.
On the ground floor, three south-facing reception rooms offer versatility; from the drawing room with its bay window and open fireplace to the smaller sitting room previously used as a bedroom. Each room features working window shutters, adding both character and practicality. The kitchen, equipped with a four-door Aga cooker, presents potential for modernization as well.
The upper floor accommodates five bedrooms, including a generously-sized main suite boasting scenic views. There’s also one bathroom and potential exists to convert one of the smaller bedrooms into an additional bathroom (subject to consent). With a total area of 3,238 sq ft across two floors, there's ample scope to innovate while keeping the essence of Victorian elegance intact.
Externally, the garden envelops three sides of the property offering low maintenance yet adequate parking space and opportunities for landscaping enhancements or flowerbeds. A double garage adds convenience and offers loft space that could serve various purposes such as an office or studio. Situated in a serene residential area only half a mile from Crieff town centre and close to local amenities like independent shops and recreational facilities, this home not only provides living space but also investment potential through thoughtful renovations.
