The welcoming vestibule opens into a spacious entrance hallway providing access to much of the ground floor accommodation. A contemporary shower room fitted with a modern white suite and mains-fed shower is conveniently located on this level, alongside a practical utility room with additional storage, work surfaces and direct access to the rear garden. The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family space which has been thoughtfully redesigned to create a superb environment for everyday living and entertaining. The dining and family areas feature attractive solid oak wooden flooring, a large picture window overlooking the rear garden and bifold doors opening onto the patio, seamlessly connecting indoor and outdoor living. The flexible layout allows for various configurations to suit individual family requirements. The stylish fully integrated kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of quality units including tall storage cabinetry, integrated fridge freezer, double ovens incorporating a microwave combi oven and fan-assisted oven, dishwasher and a five-ring gas hob with extractor above. Quartz worktops and a peninsula unit provide additional preparation and seating space, while tiled flooring completes the modern finish. Situated off the kitchen area, the formal lounge is a particularly attractive room featuring a distinctive turret-style projection overlooking the front garden together with a further front-facing window allowing excellent natural light. A multi-fuel stove provides an attractive focal point and creates a warm and inviting atmosphere. Also located on the ground floor are two further versatile rooms, both overlooking the front garden, which can be utilised as bedrooms, home offices or additional reception rooms depending on individual requirements. One of these rooms benefits from built-in shelving within alcoves. A staircase with feature Velux window leads to the upper floor where there are three further bedrooms and the family bathroom. The generous principal bedroom incorporates fitted wardrobes and a dedicated dressing area which leads through to a stylish ensuite shower room fitted with a contemporary white suite and mains shower enclosure. The additional upstairs bedrooms are both well-proportioned doubles enjoying pleasant front-facing aspects with Velux windows providing additional natural light. Useful eaves storage is available throughout the upper level, together with loft access. The centrally positioned family bathroom is fitted with a modern three-piece suite including separate glazed shower enclosure and bath.

The property enjoys extensive mature gardens to both the front and rear. The front garden is beautifully landscaped with lawn, mature planting and an impressive beech tree, while a wide tarred driveway provides generous off-street parking and leads to the substantial double garage with electrically operated door, power, light and shelving. A paved terrace extends across the front of the property, partially sheltered by the roof overhang, creating an excellent seating area to enjoy the open outlook. To the rear, the fully enclosed garden offers a peaceful and private setting ideal for families and outdoor entertaining. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn with mature trees and established hedging, while a large patio area adjacent to the family room provides the perfect space for barbecues and social gatherings. A lower decked seating area has also been created for outdoor dining and would be an ideal location for a hot tub. In addition, electrical wiring has already been installed externally in preparation for an EV charging point.
The house has ready to access to a number of local walks with the Contlaw and Kippie woods particularly close. The old Deeside railway line and Countesswell woods can also be easily accessed on foot or by bike.
