"Glenshee has been the heart of family life for us. From football and games in the garden to big Christmas celebrations with all the family gathered, this house has accommodated it all with ease.
Sitting on the terrace on a sunny evening is always a highlight, whatever the season brings.
Watching the light change over the garden as the evening settles in is something we’ll always treasure — there’s a real sense of peace to it.
Everything you want is an easy walk away — school, great shops, and the train station — which has made everyday life wonderfully simple.
We’ve also loved being able to walk straight out the front door and down to the shore for a long walk, whatever the weather.
The house itself has given us so much flexibility over the years, adapting easily as our needs have changed, and it has always felt like a place that could accommodate whatever life brought to it" Ground Floor Tiled step leading to panelled door with top light to: ENTRANCE PORCH: Period tiled floor, cornice ceiling, picture rail, stain glass door with matching side and top lights to: SPACIOUS ENTRANCE HALL Cornice ceiling, plate rack, staircase leading to first floor.
