The accommodation is accessed via an entrance porch which leads into a welcoming central hallway, providing access to all principal apartments.

Completing the internal accommodation, the family bathroom is conveniently positioned off the hallway and offers further potential for modernisation and enhancement.
A particular feature of the property is the outstanding external space. The cottage is set within stunning garden grounds which offer excellent privacy and significant potential for landscaping or further enhancement. Private parking is available for multiple vehicles, an increasingly sought-after benefit in this location, while a charming former dairy shed, now utilised as secure external storage, adds both character and valuable additional practical space.
With its appealing traditional character, generous room sizes, enviable outlook and exceptional outside space, 129 Dundee Road offers a rare opportunity to acquire a property with the potential to be transformed into a wonderful and characterful cottage home, or indeed an exciting investment project, within one of Forfar’s most sought-after settings.
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.
