Lumphanan, Banchory, AB31

We are delighted to offer to the market this very desirable rural package on the edge of Royal Deeside consisting of traditional four bedroomed detached farmhouse, outbuildings, agricultural shed, poly tunnels and approximately 13 acres including pasture. Previously operated as a market garden business, it offers any potential buyer an excellent opportunity to realise an enviable rural lifestyle and could be further developed with the required permissions to create holiday lets or alternative business. The property would also be ideal for equestrian or livestock with the conversion of the agricultural shed or erection of stabling. The farmhouse is in excellent order and benefits from a dual eco heating system via a solid fuel Raeburn and oil fired boiler, UPVC double glazing and wood burning stove. In addition there is a 54m2 agricultural shed and 5 poly tunnels. Properties of this nature and quality are in extremely high demand and we highly recommend early viewing to avoid missing out on this excellent opportunity.
