Burnside Villa, Burnside Fettercairn, Laurencekirk, AB30 1XY

Enjoying a completely private setting within the heart of Fettercairn, close to the popular town of Laurencekirk, we offer for sale this stunning 4/5 Bedroom Detached Period Home. Retaining many fine character features throughout, the property has been maintained and upgraded to the highest of standard by the present owners to create a warm, inviting family home that benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing. The main accommodation is spread over 2 floors within the original house with the benefit of a rear two storey annex extension. This is currently used as additional living space but creates an opportunity for the discerning purchaser to make their own self contained granny annex, home studio or further bedroom accommodation. 

Upon approach, a sweeping driveway creates an impressive entrance into the garden grounds that lead up to the propertys main entrance and welcoming porch. The impressive hallway leads to the main ground floor accommodation including a comfortable lounge with open fire, decorative mantle and tile insert. The formal dining room is to the front of the property and leads to the dining kitchen that is fitted with a wide range of quality base, wall & drawer units together with contrasting roll front work tops and matching splash back. From the kitchen is a large walk in pantry/storage room with fitted base units. The rear hall leads to a cloakroom fitted with a 2 piece white suite and utility room that houses additional kitchen appliances. The ground floor of the annex could be completely self contained but works well as an integrated part of the house comprising a hall, shower room, large storage cupboard and games room with another large walk in cupboard.

A grand staircase with accompanying oak handrail and balustrade leads to the upper landing that is engulfed in natural light from a central sky light. There are four equally well proportioned double bedrooms all of which boast either built in storage or ample space for free standing furniture. All are served by a well appointed family bathroom that is fitted with a 3 piece suite and shower over the bath. The first floor of the annex is perfect for entertaining with guests, friends and family. The hall leads into a pleasant seating area that has a fitted bar and bay window to the rear of the property. The main lounge boasts exceptional proportions as well as several windows overlooking the gardens and an attractive fireplace with open fire.

The mature gardens provide a great deal of privacy and a lovely setting in which to enjoy the complete peace and quiet. An extensive lawn provides space for children & pets to play and is surrounded by a variety of fruit trees and decorative plants & shrubs. There is a ˜hidden courtyard to the side of the property that is surrounded by stone walls and laid with a deck creating a space in which to entertain.
