Luxurious Family Home, Perthshire, Scotland

Hidden high in the Perthshire hills at the end of a farm track, the property is situated on the site of a former farm steading.



The original property became derelict in the early 1800’s and has since been replaced by a brand new house which has been sustainably built and classically designed by the famous architect Robert Adam. 

Completed in 2009, the house gleams inside and out. It has been stunningly interior designed using the most luxurious fabrics and fittings to provide all the comforts of modern day living combined with a feel of the elegance of a bygone era.
