Currently the property consists of a small bungalow with garden and a variety of outbuildings.

The site sits in an elevated position on the outskirts of Dollar in a semi-rural position and enjoys stunning open views. Although the site benefits from the existing planning permission this does not preclude a revised or new application being submitted.

The consented house could be constructed in a traditional style; all external walls to be of Perthshire stone under a natural slate roof with timber framed double glazed windows and doors. The house would be highly insulated and would include eco features. It is proposed to incorporate traditional building techniques including all wet trades. The design of the house incorporates a well glazed sun room with doors leading out to a wrap around terrace, a large family room, an office, a dining kitchen leading into a very large reception room with space for formal dining. The bedrooms will lie on the first floor with high coomb ceilings and dormer windows.
