Lyon Croft is a beautiful example of a traditional thatched cottage, combining historic character with a refined contemporary interior. With its striking stone elevations and classic thatched roof, the property has been thoughtfully modernised to create a bright and airy home, well suited to its exceptional rural setting.

The ground floor accommodation is centred around two welcoming reception rooms. The dining room features attractive slate flooring and an impressive original stone fireplace, while the sitting room provides a comfortable retreat, centred around a handsome fireplace with wood-burning stove and a window seat overlooking the garden and surrounding fields, this room could also offer a charming first floor bedroom. Exposed stone pillars from the dining room lead through to a well-appointed modern kitchen, fitted with sleek white units, integrated appliances and clean, understated lines. A practical utility room adjoins, incorporating a traditional butler sink and additional cloakroom facilities. Also on this level is a well-proportioned family bathroom, featuring skylights, a freestanding bath and a separate glass-enclosed walk-in shower.

Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two well-presented bedrooms set into the eaves. Both rooms feature white wood-panelled walls and ceilings, creating a calm, light-filled atmosphere, enhanced by skylights.

The exterior is equally appealing, with a well-maintained garden with attractive pond and laid mainly to lawn, the garden is positioned for outdoor dining while taking in far-reaching views of the surrounding hills.

A hexagonal summer house provides a versatile space for relaxation or home working. The grounds also include a small ornamental pond and are enclosed by traditional fencing, with the rolling landscape of Glenlyon forming an attractive backdrop.

The nearby village of Kenmore and market town of Aberfeldy provide a range of everyday amenities, including shops, cafés and restaurants, while the surrounding area offers excellent opportunities for walking, cycling, fishing and other outdoor pursuits along the River Tay and Loch Tay.
