Delightful and extensive period arts & crafts home

An outstanding B-listed Arts and Crafts house has been brought to the market.

Galbraith present The Boreen, in the heart of Dundee’s West End.

Designed by renowned architects Thoms and Wilkie and believed to date from 1911, The Boreen offers superb family accommodation of a very high standard and with many delightful features.

The Boreen enjoys a highly secluded setting in a prime location, within walking distance of the heart of the city. The house also benefits from a wonderful private garden, landscaped with lawns, an attractive terrace, mature trees, plants and shrubs.

At the heart of the house the wood panelled hall is a most attractive space, with a beautiful stone fireplace and stove.

The well-proportioned formal drawing room benefits from a lovely bright southerly outlook with adjoining discrete bar room. The dining room and sitting room also benefit from the original leaded glass windows and are light and spacious.

The exquisite hand-crafted kitchen by A L Douglas has been created to the owner’s specifications, with a breakfast bar, adjoining dining area, along with granite work surfaces and splashbacks, a Six-Four AGA and integrated Miele appliances.

Completing the ground floor is the fitted utility room, two cloak rooms and further ancillary accommodation.

The charming main staircase leads to the first floor accommodation where there are four excellent double bedrooms along with office, study area, laundry/bedroom five, hall, two bathrooms and further additional accommodation.

The principal bedroom suite, with separate dressing room and en-suite, is particularly impressive. The first floor can also be accessed via a separate back staircase leading from the kitchen area.

The attic floor of the house has been set out as a children’s play area/games room but there is considerable potential to use this extensive area for a variety of uses.

George Lorimer, who is handling the sale of the property on behalf of Galbraith said: ‘This is a rare opportunity to acquire one of the most beautiful houses in Dundee.

‘The Boreen is impressive inside and out, with a wealth of reception rooms enhanced by period features and luxurious finishes. The attention to detail given to the interior design has resulted in a magnificent home, with substantial space dedicated to family life. It is rare to find a house of this quality in such a central location.’
