SUMMARY

This particularly stunning home was completed in 2015 and is still a shining example of a striking contemporary house. A local architect and builder had the combined vision to create a unique property for the current owners and the end result does not disappoint. Local craftsmen created bespoke interior finishes which are part of the impressive specification. A consistent theme throughout is the use of handcrafted oak for doors, door frames, skirting boards and staircase. The dominant feature of this contemporary home is the open plan design of the ground floor which blends perfectly into more formal and informal spaces. To take full advantage of the wooded grounds there are a number of bi-fold doors, French and patio doors, balconies and terraces. Contributing to the open plan flow of the house are the large Italian porcelain floor tiles throughout. There is an abundance of specifically fitted lighting including floor lighting on the first floor which from dusk creates a wonderful ambiance. Kitchen units along with the bathrooms and shower rooms were fitted by Laings of Inverurie. Sanitaryware is by Laufen, wall mirrors are anti-mist and the mixer showers are by Grohe.

ACCOMMODATION

Double entrance doors open into the vestibule with a shelved and hanging space cupboard. French doors then open into the tremendous reception hallway with its superb vaulted double height ceiling. A wonderful feature is a floor to ceiling granite chimney breast incorporating a warming Lotus H470 wood burning stove. A double side room is separated by a centre chimney breast with an inset Stovax Riva Studio 2 duplex double sided stove. This allows an informal lounge space along with a more formal sitting room area. Large windows overlook the main covered garden terrace and bi-fold doors bring the outdoors in. An elegant dining room again has the feature of bi-fold doors to access more alfresco space. The curved kitchen space is stylish with minimalist high gloss floor and base cabinets complemented by Corian worksurfaces including a continuous sink.
