A rare opportunity to acquire an impressive five-bedroom semi-detached converted steading, beautifully presented throughout, set within approximately three-quarters of an acre of private garden grounds, forming part of an exclusive 64-acre private estate. The Old Dairy is a spacious and stylish home which combines the character of a traditional steading conversion with the comfort and finish expected of a modern family property. Enjoying a peaceful countryside setting, the property remains well placed for the city and nearby amenities. The accommodation is presented in excellent order, with double glazing, oil central heating, contemporary oak internal doors and carpets on the first floor. A standout feature is the suite of stunning new ultra-modern bathroom upgrades, including the conversion of the downstairs WC into a shower room, a new family bathroom and a newly fitted en suite to the master bedroom.

On entering, a generous hallway creates an inviting first impression and gives access to the principal ground floor rooms. The lounge is a bright and comfortable reception space, enhanced by a large picture window overlooking stunning countryside views, and a wood-burning stove set within a striking stone hearth. The kitchen, dining and family area forms the heart of the home, offering an excellent open-plan space for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units, a central island and a six-burner range cooker, while the adjoining dining and family areas enjoy direct access to the garden through patio doors. A useful utility room provides additional storage and appliance space, while the separate sitting room offers excellent flexibility as a study, sixth bedroom or self-contained guest accommodation, particularly with the newly converted ultra-modern shower room also located on this level, replacing the former cloakroom WC and adding excellent practicality to the ground floor layout.

The turned staircase leads to a naturally bright landing, where a large window brings in plenty of light. The master bedroom is particularly spacious, with a front-facing window, side Velux windows and excellent built-in storage, together with a newly fitted contemporary en suite shower room. The second double bedroom is also generously proportioned and benefits from its own en suite shower room and walk-in dressing room. A third double bedroom is currently used as a gym/study, offering flexible space to suit a range of needs, while bedrooms four and five are both well sized and include fitted double wardrobes. The newly installed family bathroom is a striking addition, designed with a separate stand-alone bath and walk-in shower to create a stylish and luxurious space for family use.

Set in a desirable rural location, The Old Dairy enjoys a peaceful setting surrounded by attractive countryside and nearby walks, while remaining only a short drive from Aberdeen city centre, its amenities and private schools. Ardoe House Hotel is close by and offers leisure facilities, dining and social opportunities. Everyday amenities, including supermarkets and further leisure options, are within easy reach, with health centres available in Peterculter and Cults. The AWPR provides improved access across the north and south of the city, making this an appealing choice for those seeking space, privacy and convenience.  Included in the sale price are all light fittings, curtains and blinds, together with the white goods in the kitchen.  Early viewing highly recommended.
