Description
New House was built in 1990 on ground that once belonged to Corsiehill House. The house was thoughtfully designed to make the very best of its lovely views and a proliferation of picture windows fill the house with light. The accommodation at New House is formed around a central reception hall where a multi-fuel stove provides a welcoming feel. A series of large windows characterise the formal sitting room which has far reaching views to the north and west. The family room and dining room are on the south side of the house both with sliding glass doors to the garden. There are gas fires in both the family room and the sitting room. The kitchen is fitted with timber units and has space for a small dining table. The utility room connects the kitchen to the double garage, the back door and also the greenhouse.
The principal bedroom is situated on the ground floor and has an en suite bathroom. There is also a separate WC and office on the ground floor. There are four further double bedrooms on the first floor along with a family bathroom. The bedrooms on the first floor are lit by velux windows and there is lots of useful storage in the attic and the eaves.
Garden
remote controlled electric gates open to a generous parking area at the entrance to the house. A pretty landscaped garden surrounds the house and has been planted with interesting plants and shrubs that provide colour and interest all year; not least in spring when the front paddock is covered in daffodils. On the south side of the house is a paved terrace as well as an ornamental water feature and raised beds.
Paddocks
Three small paddocks ranging from 0.3 – 0.5 acres provide amenity but also protect the privacy and views from the property. The southernmost paddock has a private gate providing pedestrian access onto Kinnoull Hill. Depending on a buyer’s interests, these paddocks also open up opportunities for extending the garden, planting an orchard, keeping hobby livestock or (subject to obtaining the relevant consents) building a summer house or garden studio.
Garage
The double garage has remote controlled doors and links directly to the utility room. A garden store and workshop have been built into the garage. There is also excellent storage within the large attic space.

Location
New House is situated in the hamlet of Corsiehill which is on Kinnoull Hill in Perth. It is perfectly positioned, being 1.5 miles from the town centre and immediately beside Kinnoull Hill Woodland Park which has miles of beautiful walking, mountain biking and horse riding and nature trails. Dundee Road (1.2 miles away) is one of the main routes out of Perth and enables swift access to Dundee, Fife, Stirling, Edinburgh and the north.
Perth has an excellent choice of shops, bars and restaurants as well as a concert hall, theatre, art gallery, museum and cinema. The town’s leisure facilities also include the Perth Climbing Centre, The Willowgate Activity Centre, Perth Leisure pool, and two sports centres. Local golf courses include the North Inch Golf Course, Craigie Hill and Murrayshall. Gleneagles and St Andrews are both within 35 miles. There is National Hunt racing at Scone Palace, which also hosts The Scottish Game Fair.
Perth is often referred to as a gateway to the highlands, and for those who enjoy outdoor pursuits the rivers, hills and lochs of the Perthshire highlands and the Angus Glens are all within easy reach while the ski slopes of Glenshee are about 40 miles north. From the windows of New House the hills of the Angus Glens are clearly visible on a good day.
There is a choice of primary and secondary schooling in the city, with Kinnoull Primary School being closest. In terms of private schooling, The High School of Dundee, Strathallan, Kilgraston, Glenalmond and Craigclowan are all within 18 miles.
Perth train station has regular services to Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee, Aberdeen, Inverness and London. Edinburgh Airport is about 40 miles away and there are direct flights from Dundee Airport (20 miles) to London City.
All distances and travel times are approximate.

Directions
If approaching from the south on the M90, follow signs to Dundee and Coupar Angus, exiting the motorway immediately after crossing the Friarton Bridge and follow signs to Coupar Angus. This route will take you into Perth via the Dundee Road. Turn right up Manse Road or Bowershall Road and join Hatton Road which leads to Corsie Hill Road. Just before Corsie Hill Road turns back downhill turn right off the tarmac road onto a private lane. Keep left, pass white painted cottages and then turn right into what was once the private driveway to Corsiehill House. The entrance to New House is immediately on the right.
