Description

Waterfall House was built in 1997. The house has been designed to make the most of its view, with the living accommodation on the first floor and the bedrooms on the ground floor. The front door opens to a vestibule and then a reception hall with three useful cupboards. The principal bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and en suite bathroom while bedroom two has an en suite shower room. Stairs lead up to a small galleried landing and the sitting room which has a fireplace and space for a dining table along with a striking double height ceiling with exposed barn style timber beams. From here there is a lovely view over the waterfall. The neat galley kitchen also has carefully placed windows to bring in light and maximise the outlook. Lastly, there is a WC on the first floor. The property works well as a second home with letting potential and has an established holiday rental income.

Outside
Waterfall House is approached via a shared private road which branches into a gravel driveway and turning circle in front of the house. The land extends to about 0.2 acres with the Lawers Burn forming its northern boundary. The crystal-clear water for the Lawers Burn tumbles past the house over several rocky waterfalls. The remaining ground around the house is mainly down to grass.

Location

Waterfall House is situated in the village of Lawers which is on the north side of Loch Tay. It is one of a small group of properties that were built on the side of the Lawers Burn and although it has neighbours it enjoys lots of privacy and one of the most beautiful sections of the burn runs past the house. Waterfall House is about 500m from the mouth of the burn which is beside a small beach on the shore of Loch Tay. Ben Lawers, one of Scotland’s highest Munros, rises up immediately to the north and is a National Trust nature reserve on account of its rare plants and wildlife. The pretty lochside villages of Killin and Kenmore are both within 8 miles with local facilities and a selection of shops, hotels and cafés.

Aberfeldy (14 miles) is the nearest main centre offering most essential services, including a medical centre. The town is becoming known for the quality of its independent shops, cafés and restaurants as well as the Birks cinema which screens mainstream films and hosts a variety of community activities. Breadalbane Academy provides nursery to secondary education and its Community Campus with swimming pool, squash courts, gym and climbing wall is available to visitors and residents in the area. Pitlochry (approximately 29 miles) is home to the Festival Theatre and has a railway station with services north and to Edinburgh and London. Perth is about 44 miles to the south.

Loch Tay is one of Scotland’s largest and best loved lochs being close to some historic villages and attracting visitors from far and wide who come to fish, sail, canoe and paddleboard or to swim off its beach at Kenmore. The area around Loch Tay is known for its dramatic and beautiful landscape offering many other outdoor activities including golf, hill climbing, shooting, stalking or simply walking the many lovely paths that have been created in the area.
