Lumphanan Church, Lumphanan, Banchory. AB31 4PR

We are delighted to offer to the market this very unique former church located on an elevated plot commanding views over the village of Lumphanan and across Royal Deeside. Designed by William Henderson & Son and dating back to 1870, this Grade C listed gothic style church has a striking granite tower and spire with clock face. There are matching leaded diamond stained glass windows throughout with stunning feature window above the pulpit. There is also a modern fully fitted kitchen, two toilets and upper gallery accessed via a small stair. There is currently no direct vehicle access to the property. There is however pedestrian access and the opportunity to create alternative vehicle access. What an exciting project this is for the ambitious developer, we highly recommend viewing to fully appreciate what is on offer.
