We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
This excellent luxury family residence or holiday home is situated in one of Scotland’s most beautiful and sought-after locations.
This lodge can be used as a permanent place of residence or second home.
This is an exceptionally large wooden built modern lodge, decorated and finished to a very high standard, with generously proportioned rooms.
The south-facing open-plan lounge and dining room benefit from sliding patio doors and three large glazed areas which provide views across the Tay valley to the scenic hills beyond.
This makes for a sunny and open area to chill out in any season. A modern log burner fire creates a welcoming, warm and cosy space in the winter months.
For the cooks - the house benefits from a very well equipped fully fitted modern kitchen with quartz worktops, large Bosch fridge freezer, induction hob, double fan oven, built in microwave, externally vented extractor and wine cooler.
Two opening skylights provide extra light and an airy atmosphere.
Three double bedrooms all have built-in or walk-in wardrobes with two enjoying well appointed fully tiled en-suite shower rooms with heated towel rails and automatic vent extractors.
A small study and full size family bathroom are accessed of the hallway. The generous driveway to the lodge is served by a quiet private road to the rear.
A spacious wrap-around sandstone terrace with full glass balustrade provides sheltered suntraps for lounging and dining and includes a 5-person hot tub.
There is a mixed species forest with varied walks and trails to the rear, and fine open views of Kenmore Hill to the south.
The lodge sits on the upper edge of the Perthshire Mains of Taymouth estate, a 120-acre country estate situated on the east end of Loch Tay, and bordering the mouth of the famous Tay river and Drummond Hill forest.
Once the home farm for Taymouth Castle, the estate has been thoughtfully developed into a collection of beautifully appointed self-catering homes, blending historic character with contemporary comfort.
Owners enjoy access to a picturesque 9-hole golf course, a welcoming bar and brasserie, and a well-stocked deli and gift shop, all set within a landscape of lochs, forests and hills.
The river, beach, village shop, primary school and Waterfront Restaurant are all within a few minutes walk.
Local attractions include the very popular National Crannog Centre and Taymouth Marina which offers a range of hospitality and water sports activities.
The shallow beach area at Loch Tay provides a safe environment for water sports for all the family.
