Annette Romanes, property manager at Blackwood & Smith, said: “Originally built in 1895 as a doctor’s surgery, with its stone-built façade and unique roof turret, Lindores offers instant kerb appeal.

"This late Victorian villa is currently set up as a guesthouse business.

"However, it has the flexibility to be transformed into a luxury family home.”

"This property really is a must see.”
