A 23-acre estate with a walled garden and tennis court in the Scottish countryside has gone up for sale – at the same price as a two-bedroom flat in Kensington.
Strathgarry in Perthshire features a Victorian country house along with a converted former estate building.
The walled garden dates back to the early 19th century and there is an all-weather tennis court and equestrian paddock.
It boats breath-taking scenery and an array of wildlife, including potential for fishing on the nearby river.
Property consultancy, CKD Galbraith, which is in charge of the sale, says the estate also boasts salmon fishing at the nearby River Garry.
It is just five miles from Blair Atholl and close to Pitlochry.
The property listing says: “Surrounded by breath-taking scenery, Strathgarry is a slice of heaven and the perfect rural retreat with an abundance of potential.
“This property offers prospective buyers the chance to restore a beautiful Victorian country house, while enjoying the luxury accommodation of an already immaculately converted former estate building with a wealth of lifestyle and commercial opportunities.”
The former estate building Wester Strathgarry, used to service the main house, but has been turned into a home.
It features seven bedrooms, in a U shape with a central courtyard and a large reception room.
The estate agents suggest it could be rented out as one or two dwellings.
Meanwhile, the Victorian mansion, Strathgarry House, has been stripped back and needs refurbished.
There is also a timber outbuilding which can be used for storage for sport or gardening equipment, while a steel framed outbuilding could be converted into a stable block, workshop or garage for up to 15 cars.
A biomass boiler, solar and photovoltaic panels have been installed on the property, generating a monthly income of £662.
Ian Hope, handling the sale of Strathgarry for CKD Galbraith, said: “This is a rare sale which offers a fantastic lifestyle opportunity with the potential to refurbish the main property for residential or holiday let purposes.
“With the breath-taking scenery and an array of wildlife on your doorstep Strathgarry is a slice of heaven and the perfect rural retreat.
“The new owners will also benefit from about half a mile of single bank fishing on the River Garry, further adding to the appeal of this family home.”
Strathgarry is on the market for offers over £1,550,000.
