Carie is the historic seat of Clan Robertson of Struan, whose Chiefs lived at Carie House and owned much of the land along the southern shore of Loch Rannoch. The Chief supported Bonnie Prince Charlie during the 1745 Jacobite Rising. After the defeat at Culloden, the Prince hid nearby on Ben Alder. The Chief remained a symbol of resistance and was so respected that government commissioners avoided Carie until his death. During his funeral procession, they moved in, diverted the Carie Burn, built a sawmill, and neglected Carie House, which later burned down.

Carie is accessed via a private tree-lined drive along the Carie Burn, leading to a gravelled approach through the Steading and hay barn. Completed in 2014, the house offers over 8,870 ft² of open-plan accommodation with spectacular views over Loch Rannoch and the Southern Rannoch Mountains. Built to an exceptional standard, the home is arranged around a cobbled courtyard and includes a conjoined two-storey stone cottage. Velfac triple glazing, underfloor gas heating, Mode LED lighting, and a Sonos sound system ensure comfort and efficiency.

The vaulted entrance hall features engineered oak flooring, tongue and groove panelling, and full-height windows overlooking the loch. Reception rooms benefit from pocket sliding doors and dual-aspect views. The vaulted kitchen includes Bulthaup units, oak flooring, a Morso wood-burning stove, a large island, Caithness stone worktops, and premium Miele and Gaggenau appliances. A pantry offers additional fridges, freezers, oak-lined larder storage, and a butler's sink.

The dining room, with vaulted ceiling and a 4m table seating 14, opens to a spacious drawing room with stunning loch and woodland views, a reading nook, and another wood-burning stove. A separate library/snug offers space for games, TV, or quiet relaxation. The property includes five double bedrooms -three in the main house and two guest en suites in the cottage - all with oak-lined storage and high-quality finishes.

Bathrooms and the boot room feature Caithness stone floors, floating sinks, foot sensor lighting, Dombracht fittings, and baths with stone surrounds. The plant room houses three gas Valliant boilers, two hot water tanks, and system controls. A ladder leads to a floored attic. Additional rooms include a comms room, a laundry with twin Miele machines and dryers, and a spacious boot room with storage, Belfast sink, and guest WC.

The house is surrounded by a gravel terrace and pergola covered in Wisteria Sinensis. The Factor's Cottage, to the south, includes open-plan living, two double bedrooms, and a mezzanine. The adjoining Steading contains a large garage, WC, and development potential. Opposite stands the hay barn with estate equipment and water filtration. A diesel backup generator sits near the entrance.

The gardens blend formal and natural landscapes with clipped hedges, pleached Malus Everest, and over 16,000 spring bulbs. Indigenous trees, lawns, and mature woodland frame the grounds, which extend to 58.18 acres: 37.31 acres of pasture, 6.86 of gardens and buildings, 6.44 of rough grazing, and 4.83 of woodland. Amenities include a tennis court, a jetty, slipway, and over 1,000 metres of loch frontage with riparian rights for fishing.

Carie lies 3.5 miles west of the charming village of Kinloch Rannoch, about 51 miles northwest of Perth. It is located on its own promontory on the south shore of Loch Rannoch in the heart of Highland Perthshire, surrounded by the remote and romantic splendour of the historical Black Woods of Rannoch and the Southern Rannoch mountains. Loch Rannoch, which is 9.4 miles in length, is one of Scotland's deepest freshwater lochs. Rannoch Station, 14 miles west of Carie, receives sleeper connections from London Euston six days a week on the "Deerstalker Express." The village of Kinloch Rannoch offers a range of local amenities including a general store with Post Office, a medical centre and dispensary, a café, a primary school, and a hotel. The towns of Pitlochry (28 miles) and Aberfeldy (21 miles) provide more extensive services, including supermarkets, secondary schooling, and a cinema. Several supermarkets offer home delivery in the area. The A9 connects north and south to Inverness, Pert
