Couston House is a beautiful house with a stunning landscaped terraced garden with a well, and incredible views over the surrounding countryside.
The former Couston House which was a mansion, and owned by the present owners, was sadly destroyed by fire in 1988. All that was left of the house was four walls standing and the cellar untouched by fire.
Not to be deterred by the fire, the owners decided to build on top of the cellar, by retaining the stone from the walls, to add character, and give an unusual extra to the dwelling, which was designed by Skandia Hus and built by a local builder. The house when built had a sitting room, dining room, study, hall, kitchen, 2 utility rooms, family room, guest room and bathroom on the ground floor and on the upper floor, a master en-suite and three further bedrooms and a bathroom. Currently there are two one bedroom self-contained apartments which could easily be returned to the original floor plans, or used for holiday lets etc. The house has just had a brand new double garage built, which has an electronic sectional up and over door by Hormann.
Couston House is situated close to the village of Newtyle in Perthshire, which has a Post Office, General Store and an award winning Butcher’s shop.
The city of Dundee is a short drive away and it has all the facilities that you would expect of a large city. There are private schools, universities, Ninewells teaching hospital.
The surrounding countryside provides an ideal setting for walking, shooting, fishing, riding. The golf courses that are nearby include Alyth, Strathmore and Blairgowrie.
