Classlochie

Newton of Classlochie is located in rural Kinross-shire overlooking the picturesque Loch Leven to the south and Benarty Hill to the west.

The development is comprised of twelve new homes with six house types. Three houses are built within the confines of an old stone steading, while a further nine new homes are strategically placed and scaled to create a small rural community. Garages and covered stores connect the new build homes as a method of recreating a steading feel without compromising on the privacy and independence of each of the homes.

The individual houses have been designed to provide contemporary, open plan living spaces with framed views over the surrounding countryside. The houses range in size from 3 bedrooms to 6 bedrooms.

Externally, smooth white rendered walls finish the houses with feature panels of local reclaimed sandstone creating added texture and depth. Siberian larch has been employed to clad the garages and dormer windows to echo the traditional use of timber to rural sheds and stores. Similarly, the slate roofs of the dwellings are set apart from the pantile roofs of the garages and stores recreating a hierarchy often seen in rural buildings.
