This impressive, extended traditional detached Victorian villa is situated in the prime central, yet secluded location within the County Town of Forfar. All local amenities including town centre, supermarkets and local shops are within walking distance. Forfar offers a broad cross section of social, leisure and consumer facilities, and provides convenient access to the Dundee/ Aberdeen A90 dual carriageway which connects to major routes north and south.
The property originates circa 1875 and has retained much of the original character and charm. The property was extended 2009/2010 to provide a large sun lounge and utility room to the rear. Having been well maintained by the present owners, the subjects benefit from gas fired central heating, part double glazing, luxury kitchen with integrated Meile appliances, large laundry room, and luxury shower room on the ground floor and bathroom on the upper floor. Features include ornate cornicing and plasterwork, working fireplaces in the lounge and snug, and living flame gas fire in the dining room. There is solid oak and pitch pine flooring, interior doors and surrounds throughout.
Externally the gardens are generously proportioned and secluded, screened by mature hedging, stone build walls and deciduous and evergreen trees. The gardens are beautifully landscaped with sweeping driveway leading to the double garage to rear. Parking areas, sun terrace, and four outbuildings.
An added attraction is the adjoining outbuilding which has been run as a thriving storage business, with thirty-eight secure units which are for rented storage.
This is truly a one of home of quality and character and only with internal inspection will the purchaser fully appreciate the high standard of property being offered for sale.
It is known as the home of the bridie and Forfar, along with a cluster of nearby Strathmore villages, plays a central role in Angus life. The traditional market town is the administrative hub of the region, enjoying all the facilities you would expect of a community with around 14,000 residents.
In addition to shops - bakers included, naturally - Forfar enjoys a leisure centre, swimming pool, golf course, an Academy and primary schooling and a professional football team playing at Station Park.
The town, once a major textile centre, was bypassed by the A90 dual carriageway linking Aberdeen and Dundee back in the late 80s.
Five miles away, the biggest of the many villages in the county is Letham, with its many active clubs and societies, and other smaller communities owing their existence to farming include Tannadice, Kingsmuir on the road to Carnoustie and Guthrie, which is equidistant from Forfar, Arbroath and Brechin.
