Five Aystree, 26 Victoria Road, Broughty Ferry DD5

Aystree House is one of Broughty Ferry's most exceptional addresses. Designed by architect Charles Soutar and completed in 1903, the Arts and Crafts mansion holds a Category A listed status and is home to what is reputably the finest collection of Liberty of London interiors in Scotland. The grand entrance hall, with its extraordinary oak panelling, carved fireplace, exposed beam ceiling and original staircase, is a shared space unlike anything else you will encounter in residential property in this area. Arriving here never gets ordinary.

Five Aystree is one of just a handful of homes that call this remarkable building home. It occupies the first floor and upper level, with full access to that communal hallway and the beautifully maintained grounds beyond. A stone perimeter wall and gated entrance give the development a sense of privacy and seclusion that belies its central West Ferry location. The harbour, shops, restaurants and bars of Broughty Ferry are within easy walking distance, and Dundee city centre is a short drive.

The apartment is arranged over two levels and offers genuinely generous proportions throughout. On the first floor, the lounge is a beautifully presented room with a large bay window, ornate original cornicing and feature plasterwork that speaks to the quality of the building it sits within. A second large reception room sits adjacent, equally well-proportioned and a genuinely impressive public room, though it would also serve as a generous principal bedroom or family room for the right buyer. The kitchen is a well-appointed space in its own right, fitted in high-gloss white with good natural light, integrated appliances including double Siemens ovens and induction hob that adds a contemporary edge. A cloakroom WC completes the first floor level.

The upper floor delivers two excellent double bedrooms, both with en-suite facilities. The principal bedroom is a generous room with beautiful vaulted ceilings and an en-suite bathroom with both bath and separate shower enclosure. The second bedroom is equally well-proportioned with its own en-suite shower room. The upper floor benefits from underfloor heating throughout.

Two private parking spaces are included. The communal gardens are beautifully maintained under the care of an active residents' association, with shared grounds that include mature planting, manicured lawn and open countryside views beyond the boundary hedging. Gas central heating and double glazing throughout.

A home of genuine character and architectural significance, in a setting that cannot be replicated.
