Description:

A picturesque village home near Perth Description The Old Schoolhouse is C Listed and is believed to date from the early 1800s. Originally owned by Dupplin Estate it was built as a home and extended in the course of the 19th century until being converted for use as the local school. In 1891 it is recorded as having 69 pupils. After the school relocated, the property became a home again, with the former school rooms being adapted to suit the requirements of subsequent owners. The school rooms continue to offer enormous potential, lending themselves well to buyers who require studio or office space. Subject to obtaining the relevant consents, it may also be possible to convert the west side of the house into an independent but adjoining cottage. Currently, the main entrance to The Old Schoolhouse is on its eastern façade. The sitting room and dining room are positioned either side of the entrance hall. The sitting room has a bay window and two south facing windows making it lovely and light and along with the dining room has an attractive fireplace. There is also a study which is a cosier room also with a fireplace. The kitchen has a breakfast bar, space for a small dining table and a pantry. At the rear of the house there is a bathroom and separate utility room. The former school classrooms are at the west end of the house and divided into three spaces. The largest has a storage cupboard and a vestibule with an external door. The smallest has a fireplace and is currently used as a bedroom. The third room is equipped with three phase (415v) electrical sockets for commercial grade appliances if required, and has access to the former front entrance of the school which opens onto Forteviot’s main street. On the first floor there are three double bedrooms with one en suite shower room and one separate bathroom. Although the property requires a certain amount of modernisation, it has some lovely traditional features. Outside The Old Schoolhouse. Still available at ListedBuy!
