Ardenvohr, Montrose Road, Auchterarder, Perth And Kinross PH3

An outstanding, fully modernised traditional family house with superb interiors.

Description
Ardenvohr is an attractive Victorian family home, once a manse house, thought to have been built in 1876. The house has beautiful gardens that wrap from the front to the rear, as well as truly spectacular south facing views towards the Ochil Hills. The house has undergone an impressive and extensive renovation in recent years. Notable improvements include new windows throughout, a new kitchen and bathrooms fitted, an upgraded heating system with new boiler installed in 2025, and a new EV charging point.

Whilst the main front door sits to the south of the house overlooking the garden and opens into the main hall, the efficient daily access is at the rear where there is a back door from the parking area, adjacent to the integral garage. The front door leads into an inner porch, with the main hall beyond it. The sitting room sits off, and has a large bay window overlooking the front garden, with the Ochil hills as a stunning backdrop. The room has traditional cornicing, shelved alcove, log burning stove, and solid wood flooring which runs through the majority of the principal rooms including the dining / family room across the hall. This fantastic open plan room also has fabulous views over the front garden and to the side of the house. A log burner sits in the heart of the room, and there is wall panelling at the dining room end. There is also a WC off the main hall. The superb dining kitchen has an appealing blend of contemporary and traditional style, a common theme throughout the house. It has industrial-style drop down lighting, fitted kitchen units incorporating glass-door cabinets and a Belfast sink, and integrated appliances including a Rangemaster cooker and a Bosch dishwasher. A rear hall from the kitchen leads to the utility / boot room which is plumbed for laundry appliances with a Belfast sink, and has a fitted bench with coat hooks above and boot storage below. There is a shower room next to it. At the end of the hall is a back door leading to the parking area, and a separate door into the integral double garage / workshop. A back staircase with clever wine storage underneath, leads from the rear hall up to a guest bedroom, with a handy study area set into a corner nook. It has use of the shower room at the bottom of the stairs.

The main first floor accommodation is approached by a staircase which leads from the entrance hall, up to the landing above. The principal bedroom suite offers the best views of the house, with a stunning panoramic outlook to the Ochil Hills through its bay window. It has an en suite shower room, and opposite is a dressing room with fitted storage. There are three further double bedrooms, all situated off the landing, as well as the family bathroom. This is fitted with twin wash basins, WC, bidet, shower enclosure and a freestanding bath.
Gardens


Ardenvohr’s gardens are fully enclosed by a combination of stone walls, recently installed wooden fencing, and hedges which provide it with a great deal of privacy and shelter. To the rear of the house there is a generous gravelled parking area, with access into the double garage through its electric roller door. The current owners use it as a part workshop with useful fitted tool storage and a work bench.

The rear garden has a lawned area with apple trees set within, a drying green to the side, and newly established flowerbeds. A recently built pizza / barbecue hut offers a sheltered place for outdoor cooking, with a gravelled area for al fresco dining beside it. The principal south-facing garden sits to the front of the house. At the top is a generous gravelled area, another ideal spot for outdoor entertaining. Stone steps lead down to the expanse of lawn which is fully enclosed by hedges, mature shrubbery and well stocked borders. At the foot sits a charming gravelled seating spot.
