We are delighted to offer for lease Coalford House, a stunning 5/6 bedroom converted detached steading at Coalford to the outskirts of Peterculter, in rural Deeside. Coalford House is in pristine walk-in condition and offers an authentic taste of rural living despite being only one mile west of Peterculter, showcasing uninterrupted views towards Drumoak. The property sits on a mature wooded plot which extends to approximately one acre and affords complete privacy to the accommodation. The property benefits from being in the catchment for Peterculter primary & Cults Secondary School.
Accommodation
A chipped stone area at the houses entrance can accommodate at least eight cars: a double garage and three carports. A long stone path leads you to the front door and vestibule, where the accommodation is over two levels.
The ground floor comprises a significant galleried lounge, large feature orangery, comfortable dining room, and modern kitchen, all accessible from the vestibule. The first floor is accessed via a stairway from the lounge and leads to a beautiful galleried area that currently functions as an airy work-from-home space; a double bedroom with exposed beams and a dual sink en-suite bathroom. From the kitchen is the passage, leading off of which are four/five generous double bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The comfortable dual-aspect lounge with a vaulted ceiling and large multi-fuel stove is full of natural soft light filtered by the tree canopy. The galleried mezzanine floor above amplifies the impact of this room. Moving clockwise to the orangery, you move from one high-impact space to another. This huge conservatory (32m2) can be accessed via the lounge or the dining room and has three exterior patio doors leading to the mature garden and treehouse.
Continuing clockwise, the dining room includes exposed beams and engineered hardwood flooring creating a luxurious space. You step up from the dining room to the well-equipped family kitchen, a practical square with ample storage, induction hob and electric oven, dishwasher and integrated fridge freezer, two ceiling Velux windows, plus reflected light from the quality tiled floor makes this a bright, fresh family space. Moreover, underfloor heating and added Kingspan 100mm insulation ensure this is an energy and environmentally efficient space. Off the vestibule is a small convenient WC.
From the kitchen, you move through to the accommodation area: four/five generous double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The master bedroom is a large double room with an outlook over the rear garden, accessed via a patio door. The quality family bathroom is fully tiled and includes underfloor heating, a Jacuzzi bath, dual washbasins, double shower, ceiling lights and extensive fitted storage. The remaining four double bedrooms occupy this part of the house. They are all good-sized doubles, two having wardrobe storage.
The property is double-glazed throughout; mains water and a Biomass Boiler power the heating system. A septic tank and soakaway deal with wastewater.
Externally, there is a substantial mature garden (lawn, trees and shrubs) which is fully fenced. However, the unique bespoke treehouse is the pièce de résistance; the lower decking boasts a perfect sheltered BBQ spot, while the upper decking, accessed by a spiral staircase, provides uninterrupted countryside views towards Banchory and is the ideal sundowner location. To the rear of the property is a beautifully discreet wooden shed housing the Biomass Boiler and bulk fuel store. There is wood storage and chopping area, plus a ride-on lawnmower shed.
