Situated on a private estate in rural Aberdeenshire is this charming three-bedroom property. Surrounded by fields and woods and located next to a river, it’s the perfect retreat for a family or group of friends looking to immerse themselves in nature.

This handsome home is a welcoming space with pleasant decor, rich tones, and colourful pictures on the walls.

On the ground floor, kick off boots and relax on the plump sofas in the lounge. The large windows, heavy drapes, and soft furnishings create a sense of comfortable splendour, and with plenty of space for everyone, you can chat, read a book or watch a film on the Smart TV. There’s a fireplace here too, to keep things cosy on cooler nights. Off the lounge, there’s a homely kitchen kitted out with every modern appliance you’ll need for a comfortable stay and a small breakfast table, perfect for a casual bite to eat. For more sociable meals, step through to the conservatory and dine at the table with seating for six people. There’s also a handy shower room on this floor.

Upstairs, a sense of charm and elegance sweeps through the three bedrooms. Two of the bedrooms feature king-size beds while the remaining room features a twin. The bedrooms are a comfortable size with cushions and throws adding splashes of colour. One king-size room boasts an en-suite bathroom and there’s also a separate bathroom featuring a delightful roll-top bath.

Outside, enjoy a game of tennis on the private court or stroll along the edge of the River Deveron. Alternatively, let the children run free on the lawn while you relax on the outdoor furniture and soak up the stunning countryside scenery.

Superbly appointed and well-decorated. Good heating, plenty of hot water and underfloor heating when required. Did not need to use the wood burner. Impressed by oak staircase, oak doors and new "old style" door furniture. Everything you could need in the kitchen. Very quiet. Plenty of good walks in and around the estate.
