The Property
Viewfield House is an attractive stone built former Manse occupying an elevated position in the village of Bankfoot. The house has beautiful accommodation arranged over 3 floors. The ground floor is approached via a lovely entrance vestibule which opens into the hall with doors off to the sitting room, which has views west over the garden. The sitting room has a wood burner and has retained a number of features including cornice work and wooden floors. The sitting room opens out to the dining room with a further door off the hall leading to a large drawing room with wood burner. The ground floor is completed with a shower room and a large kitchen with extensive fitted units and an oil fired Rayburn.
A staircase leads from the hallway up to first floor with master bedroom, 4 further bedrooms and a family bathroom. The staircase continues to the second floor with a further attic bedroom and office.

Outbuildings
To the north of Viewfield House is a two storey traditional stone built former coach house, which previously had planning permission (Ref 05/00124/FUL) to be converted to provide additional family accommodation. The Coach House has been upgraded by the current owners to include a new roof, but the internal work has not been started. The Coach House could be used as additional accommodation or a games room subject to the relevant planning consents.

Behind Viewfield House is a stunning Japanese tea house which is very unusual as there are few examples in the country. The tea house overlooks a pond which currently holds a variety of Koi (it should be noted the Koi are excluded from the sale).
