General Description
Designed by the award-winning architect Heinz Voight in 2004/2005, Woodville stands as one of the most exceptional country houses in Angus. This outstanding property, one of just a group of four individual bespoke houses, masterfully combines traditional Scottish architectural elements with luxurious finishes and exquisite contemporary design, all nestled in a breathtaking location. Approached by a gated sweeping driveway, the striking exterior of stone, harl, and slate, complete with dramatic turrets, sets the tone for the remarkable craftsmanship that continues throughout the interiors. Double mahogany doors showcasing a Celtic design open into a welcoming vestibule with cloakroom and WC, where handcrafted doors open to a grand hallway adorned with hand-selected American walnut flooring and featuring an open sandstone fireplace. Flanking the hallway are two stunning reception rooms designed for both entertaining and relaxation. The dual-aspect drawing room featuring French doors to the front garden, is a serene and elegant space, continuing the rich walnut flooring from the hallway and featuring intricate cornicing and a soft, neutral colour palette. At its heart is a large open sandstone fireplace, complemented by bespoke oak curved bookshelves and a charming window seat. Across the hallway, the dining room is truly magnificent, defined by its sophisticated décor and grand stone pillars. Rich walnut flooring enhances the room’s timeless appeal, while south-facing windows flood the space with natural light, creating an inviting and refined atmosphere perfect for hosting formal gatherings. The bespoke kitchen, handcrafted by the renowned David L Douglas, serves as the heart of the home. It features exquisite walnut cabinetry paired with sleek black granite countertops, achieving a seamless blend of style and functionality. High-spec integrated appliances, including a black five-door AGA range cooker, wine fridge, coffee maker, and a Samsung American-style fridge/freezer with ice and water dispenser, elevate its modern appeal as does its raised glass breakfast bar nestled in an island unit. Thoughtfully designed, the kitchen opens effortlessly through French doors to an alfresco seating area, making it ideal for family living and entertaining. A cool larder, a well-equipped utility room leading to the carport and a convenient WC ensure the space remains streamlined and practical. Adjacent to the kitchen, a delightful family room with garden views, BOSE surround sound and a wall-mounted Samsung TV offers a cosy space for daily life, while a well-appointed study with Oastler bespoke oak cabinetry completes the ground floor layout, providing the perfect spot for work or a quiet retreat. From the grand hallway, a sweeping oak staircase ascends to the galleried landing and the first floor, where the sense of luxury and refinement continues. Boasting captivating countryside views, the principal suite is a tranquil haven. Finished with a pewter fireplace it features a dressing room, and an opulent en-suite bathroom adorned with Travertine stone and featuring a chromotherapy shower, bath, two washbasins, a WC, and a bespoke cherrywood vanity handcrafted by Bentleys of Dundee. Two additional double bedrooms, each with dressing rooms and striking contemporary en-suite bathrooms blending Duravit Philippe Starck and Alessi finishes and Gobo lighting, further enhance the upper level’s appeal. The remaining two light and airy double bedrooms, one of which has a dressing area within a turret, share a chic, monochrome family bathroom, adorned with Italian marble and centred around a stunning freestanding Jacob Delafon roll-top bath. Insulated to the highest standards, the house benefits from underfloor heating, heat recovery and a Dynalite smart lighting system. An integrated music system with remote controls extends through the principal reception rooms, kitchen, and bedrooms, with outdoor speakers enhancing the garden experience.

A charming linked one-bedroom cottage boasts an open-plan living room and kitchen with French doors to the garden and a tiled shower room. The spacious double bedroom with built-in cabinetry features a west-facing balcony overlooking the garden. The cottage offers superb flexibility for staff, visiting friends or family, or as a holiday let.
