Chance to live inside former Blairgowrie school buildings converted into stylish homes

Both properties are for sale at a fixed price.

Two stylish homes inside converted school buildings in Blairgowrie have gone up for sale.

The Old School House was vacated in 2009 when Hill Primary School moved to a new campus.

In the last few years, the buildings on the site – just above the town’s High Street – have been converted into high-end homes.

Now two of those properties have hit the market – Apartment 1878, which is inside the main former school building, and The Art House, which sits in a separate cottage.

Apartment 1878

Apartment 1878 is a three-bedroom penthouse that boasts a stunning modern design while showcasing the character of the building – which dates from 1876.

The entrance hallway has a beautiful brick feature wall and a carpeted staircase, leading to the upper floor.

The main bedroom overlooks the rear of the building and has built-in storage and an en-suite bathroom.

There are a further two double bedrooms, a shower room and a large utility room.

Double doors lead to a large and airy open-plan living, kitchen and dining area, with large windows flooding the room with natural light.

Apartment 1878 is being marketed by Ballantynes for a fixed price of £475,000.

The Art House

Meanwhile, The Art House is a separate three-bedroom detached home within the grounds of the former school.

From the ground floor entrance hall, there is access to a utility and laundry room and an open-plan living, kitchen and dining space, which overlooks the garden.

There is also a spacious double bedroom on the ground floor, with a dressing area and a shower room.

Double patio doors lead to a private outdoor garden space.

Upstairs, there is a ‘void’ feature, overlooking the living room, along with two bright double bedrooms and a luxurious bathroom.

The Art House is being marketed by Ballantynes for £425,000 – which is also a fixed price.

John Burke, from specialist renovation firm Corryard, was behind the redevelopment of the former Hill Primary School.

The project created two penthouses, six duplexes and two separate houses – the other of which is in the former music building.
