This impressive and substantial detached Victorian Villa is situated in an off street location in the most sought after Lour Road area of the Country Town of Forfar. The Town Centre and all local amenities including schools, local shops and public transport are within a short walking distance. Forfar offers a broad cross section of social, leisure and consumer facilities including independent retailers and major supermarkets. The A90 dual carriageway is easily accessible and connects to major routes north and south.
The property offers spacious and well proportioned accommodation over three floors and has retained much of the original character and charm including ornate cornicing, plasterwork ceiling rose and staircase. The subjects benefit from gas fired central heating, double glazing, modern dining sized kitchen, two family bathroom and two en suite shower rooms. The layout property lends itself to having separate accommodation in the basement- with its own exterior and interior entrance, ideal for use as a granny flat, teenage accommodation or Air BnB. The range of public rooms and bedrooms can be adapted to suit the individual purchaser’s requirements.
The property is accessed by a gated entrance to a rhododendron lined driveway with parking for multiple vehicles and two garages. The gardens are laid mainly to lawn with mature shrubs and trees including apple, plum and damson. There is a summerhouse, shed and stone outhouse.
This is a rare opportunity to obtain a character period home in one of the most desirable locations in Forfar and viewing is highly recommended to appreciate the space, traditional features and further potential.
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.
