Explore the Beauty of Tigh Sona, a Unique Contemporary Home in Forgandenny
Key Highlights :
Four miles south of Perth, nestled in the heart of the countryside, lies Forgandenny, a picturesque conservation village that is home to a church, village hall, primary school, two rivers (the Earn and the Strath), and quaint buildings. Amongst all these traditional sights, however, sits one notable exception: the unique contemporary home of Tigh Sona.
Tigh Sona, which means ‘happy house’ in Gaelic, is a striking wood and natural stone home that has been transformed and extended from a traditional cottage to an impressive 3,500 sq ft high-specification home. The interior of the split-level accommodation boasts many standout features, including a sweeping handmade walnut staircase, bespoke fitted storage, fitness room, and principal bedroom with double-height vaulted ceilings and an en suite bathroom featuring floor-to-ceiling windows and an oval freestanding bath. The bespoke fitted kitchen has Silestone and walnut work surfaces, high-end integrated appliances, central island, and breakfast bar.
The entrance vestibule leads through into a spacious open plan sitting room and music room, with a central double-sided wood burning stove to delineate the two areas. On the other side of the adjacent staircase is a palatial 38ft family living/kitchen area open plan to a large formal dining room, while a utility, shower room, and internal access to the garage are off to one side. The ground floor layout also includes a 20ft double-aspect office with a full wall of solid yew, fitted storage, family bathroom, and three bedrooms – two of which are en suite, while one also has a walk-in dressing room with integrated storage. On the first floor, a 24ft mezzanine hallway with double-height ceiling gives access to two, adjoining bedrooms (one currently a fitness room), both of which have access to a fitted dressing room and bathroom with a full-height window in front of which is a stand-alone oval bath. The principal bedroom also has a glazed gable incorporating double doors onto a large, decked balcony with stunning views over the gardens and countryside beyond.
Outside, electric entrance gates give way to a driveway leading to the attached double garage, while the mature landscaped gardens include a sunken trampoline, flower beds, trees, secluded seating areas, patio, and lawns. Although rural, Tigh Sona is close to the town of Bridge of Earn, which sits on the banks of the River Earn and offers a good range of amenities – Strathallan School is also nearby. Offers over £875,000 are invited by Clyde Property in Perth.
Tigh Sona is a truly unique property, offering an exquisite combination of traditional and contemporary design. With its tasteful interior and stunning views of the surrounding countryside, it is the perfect place to call home.
