USP Cottage surprise
Wester Chapelton, on approach, looks like the sweetest of chocolate box cottages.
But the property, in Killiechassie, near Aberfeldy in Perthshire, has a lot more than meets the eye behind its pretty front door.
It has been extended substantially upwards and outwards, while retaining its period cottage charm.
Over double the floor space of the original is found in a new extension behind the cottage, while the loft has been converted into a family room that runs the length of the house’s frontage.
The property now comprises three reception rooms, three double bedrooms, two of which are ensuite, an additional family bathroom, a dining kitchen plus a conservatory and a detached double garage.
Wester Chapelton is set in beautiful garden grounds in a tranquil rural location and has impressive open country views.
It is on the northern banks of the River Tay in a part of Highland Perthshire renowned for its scenery and the range of outdoor activities available.
On the doorstep are places for walking, mountain biking, fishing and golf.
There is actually a little more potential at Wester Chapelton too, as the family room could be divided to provide a fourth and fifth bedroom should they be required.
Not bad for a humble cottage.
