A pretty farmhouse with two courtyard cottages.
Description
Silverton Farm is approached via a newly tarmacked driveway with neatly mown verges which rises up a gentle slope and arrives in Silverton’s attractive courtyard. From its elevated position, Silverton Farm has an uplifting view over rolling farmland to the hills. Over the years, the accommodation at Silverton has been developed and the property currently consists of the original detached four bedroom farmhouse which sits adjacent to the U-shaped stone steading which now houses two fabulous and very different secondary properties. Each property has been thoughtfully laid out to ensure maximum privacy and the arrangement could be adapted to suit a whole range of requirements whether buyers are looking for a property that could accommodate multigenerational living, the opportunity to generate income from letting cottage/s, a requirement for separate guest accommodation or even the creation so a substantial home office or small business premises.
Silverton Farmhouse
Silverton Farmhouse is an attractive traditional farmhouse which has well-proportioned rooms and a lovely southerly outlook. The main entrance gives access via a hall to both the dining room and dining kitchen. The kitchen is fitted with painted timber units, black granite work surfaces and an engineered oak floor. It has a utility room and a door to the garden. The principal reception rooms are the sitting room, family room and conservatory all of which are located on the south side of the house. The family room is a cosy informal room with a multi fuel stove while the sitting room is a more formal entertaining room also with a gas fire. The conservatory enjoys views over the garden and beyond. There is also a shower room on the ground floor. On the first floor there are two double bedrooms (one en suite) at the front of the house and two further bedrooms and a family bathroom at the rear of the house.
Silverton Cottage
Silverton Cottage is an impressive 3-4 bedroom house created within the original stone steading. It has a pretty and understated entrance in the corner of the courtyard which opens via hallway to an impressive vaulted open plan kitchen, dining and sitting room. The kitchen has a large central island and granite worktops. There is space for a dining table between the kitchen and the sitting room, where there are two sets French windows to the garden. The focal point of the room is a double-sided multi fuel stove which is set into an exposed stone chimney breast dividing the dining area from the sitting room. This together with the exposed ceiling rafters, gives this room great character. Nordan windows installed in 2014 frame rural views and fill the room with light. The bedroom wing at Silverton Cottage is at the eastern side of the building where the principal bedroom has an en suite shower room and two further double bedrooms share a family bathroom. Silverton Cottage also has a utility room and an additional shower room on the ground floor. A large loft room over the garage is currently used as a fourth bedroom but would also make a great games room or home office.
Silverton Mews
Silverton Mews is a relatively recent extension to the original steading building and was built in 2014 to a design by Fergus Purdie architects. A mixture of timber and zinc cladding gives the mews an intriguing and subtle contemporary style fits perfectly in its agricultural setting. Its entrance is hidden from view on the eastern side of the property. Silverton Mews (fitted with Nordan windows throughout) has a light filled open plan sitting/dining/kitchen which has a multi fuel stove and a large glazed window framing a view over the farmland beyond. The property has two double bedrooms, a shower room and a cloakroom with WC.
Outside.
The garden at Silverton Farmhouse is largely down to lawn and is beautifully maintained. Daffodils line the driveway in Spring. Neatly clipped hedges, shrubs and low stone walls provide structure to the garden on the western side of the property where the farmhouse and the Cottage both have paved terraces. A large expanse of flat mown lawn offers scope to create more beds in the garden if desired. Steps lead down from the farmhouse to a pretty duck pond. The gravel courtyard and a tarmac area beside the farmhouse and steading provide lots of space for parking.

Location
Silverton Farm is west of the small village of Braco which has a village shop, coffee shop and primary school. The property is surrounded by open farmland and has southerly views over the Allan Valley to the Ochil Hills beyond. While the property is wonderfully private and rural, it is only 2 miles from the A9 at Greenloaning which connects directly to Perth and onwards to Dundee, Aberdeen and Inverness to the north; as well as Stirling, Edinburgh and Glasgow to the south. In addition the local towns of Auchterarder (9 miles) and Crieff (13 miles) have top end leisure facilities at the nearby Gleneagles Hotel and Crieff Hydro respectively. Both towns have supermarkets, health centres and professional services as well as a range of independent retailers, cafes and restaurants.
In addition to the primary school at Braco, there is both primary and secondary education at The Community School of Auchterarder and at the Strathearn Community Campus in Crieff. There is a choice of private education within easy reach including Morrison’s Academy and Ardvreck Preparatory School in Crieff, as well as at Glenalmond College, Strathallan, Kilgraston and Dollar Academy which are all within 30 miles of Silverton.
Gleneagles Hotel has three championship golf courses and there are popular local courses in Crieff, Comrie and Muthill. The surrounding lochs, hills and glens offer an abundance of opportunities for outdoor pursuits which are easily accessible from Silverton
Glasgow and Edinburgh and their airports are within 50 miles and Braco. Gleneagles railway station has daily services north and south, including a sleeper service to London. Dunblane railway station (7 miles) provides commuter services to both Edinburgh and Glasgow.
