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
Positioned just a short walk from the centre of Broughty Ferry, Ashley House offers a rare opportunity to own a substantial, character-filled home in a well-connected and highly regarded part of Dundee.
The property equally as suited to a sizeable family home or the busy B&B it is currently being operated as.
Set on Monifieth Road, this traditional detached villa enjoys an elevated position within easy reach of local shops, cafés, and the beach, with Broughty Ferry train station less than a mile away, ideal for those commuting into the city or travelling further afield.
The property is currently arranged with five bedrooms over two floors, each well-proportioned and filled with natural light.
Each of the rooms benefit from en-suite facilities, offering privacy and flexibility for larger families, multi-generational living, or hosting guests.
On the ground floor, you’ll find a breakfast room with a large walk in cupboard, a dining room, a generous living room, a bright, functional kitchen with a gas stove cooker, providing a practical layout that can easily adapt to suit different needs, a utility room, a handy WC located on the ground floor at the entrance of the home, and one of the five bedrooms is located on the ground floor, featuring an en-suite.
Period features such as high ceilings, decorative cornicing, and large windows are present throughout, giving the home a sense of space and character.
The bathrooms are modern and well maintained, including one with a traditional freestanding bath. To the rear of the home, a private garden area with mature plants and space to sit outdoors.
While easy to manage, the garden offers a pleasant green outlook and a peaceful spot to unwind.
A broad driveway to the front provides parking for multiple vehicles along side a generous detached garage.
Ashley House is a sizeable, well-located home with a lot to offer—whether as a private residence, thriving B&B business, or something in between.
With its central location, generous layout, and traditional charm, it’s a property with excellent potential. EPC Rating: D
