Description
Belvedere House is a B Listed property constructed in 1867 as part of
Trevelyan Castle (later re - built as neighbouring New Fargie House). Its
Jacobean - style gables and circular tower give it character and great presence.
In 1989 the building was converted into a home. The vaulted reception hall
makes a welcoming entrance and has a fireplace with woodburning stove. It is
flanked by two fabulous entertaining rooms: The drawing room which has an open
fireplace and the dining room which has space for a large dining table. Both
these rooms have windows overlooking Belvedere’s fields and frame an
incredible view. The dining kitchen has space for a dining table as well as
comfortable seating and is linked to the Conservatory. On the first floor a
galleried landing leads to four double bedrooms (one with en suite bathroom)
and one single bedroom, a bathroom and a shower room. While Belvedere House is
enormously comfortable there is great scope to modernise the property.
Cottage
A pretty stone - built single storey cottage accessed from the courtyard would
be ideal for a housekeeper, relative or guests depending on requirements. It
has one bedroom, kitchen/living room and a shower room. It also has a small
sunroom overlooking a little private garden.
Garden and grounds
Belvedere is set in gardens and grounds extending to just over 21 acres.
Electric gates open to a gravel parking area with lovely old cobbles laid out
by the front door. The designed garden is mainly to the south where herbaceous
borders are enjoyed from the sunroom. To the west an expanse of mown lawn is
planted with specimen trees. A grassy path leads to a magical spot at the
western edge of the garden where a huge view unfolds. The remainder of the
land at Belvedere is hill grazing that would be ideal for any buyer with sheep
or hobby livestock.
Outbuildings
Single garage
Potting shed/greenhouse
Location
Belvedere House is situated on the brow of the hillside at New Fargie and has
uplifting views over the Tay Valley to the Highlands beyond. With its private
driveway and extensive mature grounds it benefits from excellent privacy
whilst also being part of an exclusive hilltop community.
Glenfarg (4 miles) is a charming village with a primary school, while
secondary education is available at Kinross High School and in Perth. More
extensive retail and leisure facilities can be found in Perth. There are a
number of private schools within convenient reach including Dollar Academy,
Strathallan, Kilgraston, Glenalmond College and Craigclowan Preparatory
School. The house is well placed for enjoying the range of beautiful scenery
nearby from the coastline of Fife to the hills and lochs of the Perthshire
highlands and the Angus Glens.
Belvedere House is only 6 miles from the M90, making Perth (10 miles), Dundee
(28 miles), Edinburgh (37 miles) and Stirling (32 miles) easily accessible.
Edinburgh Airport is 34 miles to the south.

hand side. Drive up the hill following the road around a couple of corners and
following signs to Belvedere House. Having passed New Fargie House on the
