Dundee and Angus Property of the Week (30th July 2022)

Each week we spotlight a property that has been really turning head

This week's Dundee and Angus property of the week goes to:

Miltonmuir House, Arbuthnott, Laurencekirk, Aberdeenshire, AB30 1PB

Seldom does an opportunity arise to acquire such a charming yet commanding country home, and it is with great pleasure we present to the market, Miltonmuir House, a 4 BEDROOM DETACHED HOME situated in the quaint Parish of Arbuthnott. Steeped in local history, this fine family home dates back from the late 1880's and is well remembered as Bannerman's general shop and grocers, converted in more recent years to form a spacious and versatile property, served by oil fired central heating and with full double glazing.

Sure to suit the needs of a wide range of discerning buyers, the property not only offers a substantial home, but also an adjoining and self-contained living annex, together with scope to develop the stone outbuildings, subject to the relevant permissions being obtained. Upon entering the main residence, a warm and welcoming hallway allows access to all ground floor accommodation, with a central stair featuring the original retained handrail and balustrade.

Enjoying multi-aspect windows, the lounge creates a comfortable space to relax, boasting a wood burning stove set against an ornate fireplace surround. The open plan dining kitchen offers a real country-kitchen feel, well-equipped with a range of base and wall units, while offering ample space for family dining and entertaining, served by a useful utility room and WC cloakroom.

A double bedroom is thoughtfully situated at ground floor level, with a carpeted stair ascending to the upper landing, giving way to all further accommodation. The master bedroom is of excellent proportions, made bright by a dual aspect outlook, while 2 further bedrooms are equally well-d and enjoy the benefit of a able family bathroom, complete with three piece suite incorporating a Jacuzzi bath.

Accessed via the dining kitchen, or by its own self-contained front entrance, the annex has been thoughtfully converted to offer an excellent addition, lending itself well to additional guest accommodation, rental option or ideal for those working from home.

A spacious entrance hallway opens to the living room, with wood burning stove, which in turn leads to the good-d kitchen and generous double bedroom, with ensuite shower room attached. Outside, the property enjoys a generous plot, with stone chipped courtyard to the rear, and a large lawned garden to the East side. A row of stone outbuildings are ripe for future development potential, and there is an abundance of parking space, as well as 2 timber sheds for secure outdoor storage. Views extend to the neighbouring farmland at the rear and across to the adjacent woodlands at the front. Early internal viewing is essential, to fully appreciate this fine historic home in all its glory.
