Located just some two miles from the ever popular village of Insch and with easy commuting to Huntly, Inverurie and Aberdeen Airport, this three bedroom semi-detached cottage is well placed for easy commuting. Attractively presented with a beautiful sun room overlooking well stocked garden grounds, 2 Mains of Williamson Cottages has well-presented rooms spanning over two levels. The cottage has been modernised and renovated over the years and benefits from a recently fitted modern kitchen and bathroom.
The exterior gardens are home to purpose built cattery accommodation, this family run business was operated for many years and has only just had to cease trading due to family bereavement. With its three bedroom family home, close proximity to the countryside and location adjacent to the A9 providing easy access, this property would make an excellent lifestyle change for any cat lovers who have always dreamed of working for themselves.
The cattery business known fondly as ‘Aristocats’ had a special reputation for providing warm, welcoming and comfortable cat accommodation. Highly respected the business had been a real labour of love accruing many regular customers along with a glowing reputation, with excellent reviews for cat care. The cattery pen is approx. 4.3m x 6m with weatherboard walling. Internal housing for 12 sleeping cubicles and enclosed runs with mesh. Entrance lobby with storage area and secured entrance. It is worthy of note that there is full planning in place for an additional cattery accommodation similar to what is on-site at present. This would allow any new purchaser the opportunity to develop and enhance the site as desired. The business was fully insured and licenced with ample customer parking to the front.
The cottage itself has been extremely well maintained with immaculate décor and quality flooring throughout. Upon entering the accommodation is light and airy and deceptively spacious. The hallway leads to a well-appointed contemporary kitchen which has been recently fitted with a range of wall and base mounted units some with glazed frontage. Integrated appliances include xxxx.
