Marshall Place — Marshall Place

21 Marshall Place dates from 1829 and is one of the larger B Listed townhouses that make up Marshall Place; the starting point of a plan to create a Southern New Town in Perth. Though the house has been modernised and refurbished over the years, care has been taken to preserve its original character, and many of its architectural features remain intact. Whilst the house is in move-in condition, there is plenty of potential for new owners to put their mark on this beautiful Georgian home. A pretty wrought iron pedestrian gate leads from Marshall Place through the front garden to a flight of wide stone steps that over-sail the basement level of the house, which is characteristic of properties along Marshall Place. The large front door with its attractive fanlight opens into the hall. Here, there is access to the largest reception room which is currently used as a music / games room. Having recently been opened up by the joining of two rooms together, southerly light now flows from the front to the back of the house. An elegant cantilevered staircase curves up two further floors, as well as down to the basement level. On the first floor there is a neat kitchen with window seat. It sits adjacent to the sitting room, which is a large, bright room with a fireplace, a south facing window, and an elegant oval wall with press cupboards, reminiscent of Edinburgh New Town houses. Behind the sitting room is the dining room, offering a cosier atmosphere with its wall of shelving. It connects to a discreet study which is tucked in behind the staircase. The dining room has potential to be used as a third bedroom if required. The main bedroom is on the top most floor along with bedroom 2, a dressing room and shower room. On the lower ground level, and accessible from the both the front and the rear gardens, is a further double bedroom with en suite bathroom, a utility room, boot room, boiler room and WC.
