Located in one of the most prestigious areas of Scotland, Damside House is a most impressive Georgian house offering elegant character and charming period features. This endearing family home is on sale, for the first time in over 40 years, with leading Scottish property consultants, CKD Galbraith.

Damside House lies only three miles from the world renowned Gleneagles Hotel.

The property boasts a beautiful private setting surrounded by impressive gardens and woodland. Damside is situated between Aberuthven and Auchterarder in the heart of the striking River Earn Valley, also known as Strathearn.

Originally built as a Georgian laird’s house, Damside House has been extended during the Edwardian period and again last century to create a home of true stature. Each generation has left its original mark, blending seamlessly into the overall grandeur of the property. The late owner developed the spectacular gardens which now emulate the property’s entire beauty.
