This is a great, large holiday house where everything you could think of has already been put in place along with a breath taking view. Alexander House is a new building with 2 wings, designed for holidays in mind.
A chandeliered dining hall with spiralling turnpike staircase; hot tub and a swimming pool; gorgeous four-poster bedroom with an elliptical bath; stunning views over mountain and valley. Water is from a private bore hole, there's a ground source heat pump and a reclaimed Scottish slate roof. At its heart, a vast, brilliantly light living space encased in glass doors and windows: a 14-seat pine table in the centre still leaves acres of space to curl up on huge tan leather sofas. Lounge on beanbags, cook in the open plan extravaganza of a kitchen. Out on the terrace is a barbecue, plus swings, a slide and trampoline. Inside play snooker or a card game in front of the open fire. Bedrooms are just as finely equipped: a gilded sleigh bed, solid oak four-poster, children's bunks, flexible set-ups for families, sofas in some and magnificent views all around. And of course, an indispensible muddy-boot room to greet you after a stomp, cycle or fishing expedition in Perthshire's countryside.
All bedrooms are en suite with their own flatscreen TVs. There is a huge open plan kitchen/breakfast/TV room (with 42” plasma) that takes up the whole of the ground floor on the main wing and has 5 sets of French doors out to decking.
The view from high on the hill looks across to Auchterarder, Gleneagles and the Sidlaw hills. On the other side of this room are doors to the pool. Lawns and woodland surround the house and your nearest neighbours are the farm animals.
