Property overview

We are pleased to bring to the market this four bedroom, one and a half storey, semi-detached, converted granite steading in the heart of the sought after village of Aboyne.  Caledonian House offers versatile, generously proportioned and well laid out accommodation which could be used for single or multiple generational living, as a holiday let, or as a buy to let property.

Externally, Caledonian House benefits from two exclusive parking spaces on the shared access lane. Attached to the house is a large external store room with plumbing for a washing machine, power and light.

Conveniently located in the centre of Aboyne in the heart of Royal Deeside, close to the village green and other amenities, the property has served as a private family home and as a rental property.  Details of previous rental income is available from the selling agents on request.

Viewing of this deceptively spacious and unique property is absolutely essential for full appreciation of the accommodation on offer.

Location

The picturesque Deeside village of Aboyne holds an enviable position in the beautiful Dee Valley and has a good range of shops and cafés, primary and secondary schooling and leisure facilities including an active theatre and community centre. With the Aberdeen Bypass providing a fast link to the north and south of the city travelling times from Aboyne to Dyce Airport, Westhill and Stonehaven have been significantly reduced making Aboyne an even more attractive proposition for commuters.

The area is popular with outdoor enthusiasts and is particularly attractive to walkers and cyclists with the Deeside Way passing through the village and its close proximity to Glen Tanar Estate and the Cairngorms National Park. The ski centres of Glenshee and the Lecht are within a short travelling distance, making winter sports easily accessible. There is an 18-hole golf course in Aboyne, water sports at Aboyne Loch and a nearby gliding club. During the summer in addition to the Aboyne Games there are the popular Highland Games in nearby Ballater and Braemar, while the Lonach Gathering takes place in Strathdon every August. Aberdeenshire is renowned for its clean air and quality of life with fragrant pinewoods, open moorland, traditional farming and good old Highland hospitality. Fishing and field sports are also popular and widely available in the vicinity.

Directions

From Banchory, travel west on the A93 North Deeside Road to Aboyne, approximately 12 miles. Ballater Road is a continuation of the A93 and leads into Aboyne.
