***DESCRIPTION***
Northfield Farm, Glasslaw presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire approximately 16.6 acres of land with a collection of traditional farm buildings, steadings, stables and a farmhouse, all set within the beautiful countryside of North Aberdeenshire near New Aberdour.

Historically operated as both a museum and animal sanctuary, the property had fallen into a state of significant disrepair. Over the past three years, the current owners have undertaken extensive clearance and improvement works, removing accumulated debris and preparing the site for its next phase of development.

A particular highlight is the architect-designed three-bedroom home, with plans prepared and ready for submission to planning. The site may also offer scope for additional residential development, self-build plots or alternative commercial ventures, subject to obtaining the necessary planning consents.

The extensive acreage and existing infrastructure create a wide range of possibilities. Potential uses include an equestrian centre with boarding facilities and riding school, agricultural operations, tourism and leisure enterprises, glamping accommodation, holiday lodges, caravan park development, or the continuation of animal welfare and charitable activities.

The property benefits from excellent accessibility, situated just eight minutes from the B9031 and close to the renowned North East 250 touring route. The area's growing popularity with visitors, combined with increasing demand for UK staycations, presents exciting opportunities for tourism-based businesses.

The site includes a private borehole water supply (requiring a replacement pump), septic tank, multiple outbuildings and extensive open land. The principal building measures approximately 10.5m x 4.6m, while the substantial L-shaped steading extends approximately 17.5m x 4.27m on each wing.

This is a rare chance to secure a substantial rural holding with outstanding redevelopment potential, offering buyers the opportunity to create a unique home, lifestyle business or investment project in one of Aberdeenshire's most attractive countryside locations.
