Property description

2 Craigshannoch Mansion is an impressive family home in a desirable rural location within an easy commute of Inverurie, Westhill and Aberdeen. The property is a short drive from Inverurie which has an excellent range of shopping facilities. Secondary education is provided at Inverurie Academy. Regular bus and train services to Aberdeen also mean that Inverurie is within easy commuting distance of Aberdeen City. In an elevated position in the exclusive Daviot Estate, Craigshannoch Mansions comprise the former hospital pavilion which was sensitively and imaginatively converted five years ago to form three mansion houses, of which No 2, in the centre is the largest. Laid out over three floors, the property offers flexible accommodation with an abundance of natural light throughout. The architect supervising the conversion was careful to retain the Art Deco features in the original building such as fireplaces, cornicing, original brassware and oak panelling which effortlessly combines with modern features including the use of solid oak throughout and the installation of designer kitchen and bathrooms by Laings of Inverurie. This spacious property is decorated in neutral tones and offers very adaptable accommodation including two conservatories, a sitting room, a family room, a TV room and a kitchen/diner on the ground floor. From the reception hall a grand oak staircase leads to the first floor where the majority of the bedrooms are located. This includes the master suite, guest bedroom with ensuite, three further bedrooms, a luxury family bathroom and a separate cloakroom. On the second floor are two further bedrooms, a shower room, and two spacious connecting rooms which are currently used as a studio and office. The house sits in a commanding position with views to Bennachie and the surrounding countryside. The terraced garden is south facing and extends to half an acre of mature grounds with an abundance of trees and shrubs. To the north of the house is a tarred off street courtyard with space to park 2 cars and an additional 2 parking spaces in front of the double garage 440275/110/07051
