5 bed detached house for sale

Arradoul House, Arradoul, Buckie AB56

Occupies an extensive site in the semi-rural hamlet of Arradoul. Arradoul is located on the outskirts of the popular coastal town of Buckie and only a short drive from the Speyside village Fochabers where a selection of shops, supermarkets, schools and leisure facilities can be found. Train links are available at Keith and airports at Inverness and Aberdeen. This Grade C listed property is one of considerable architectural interest and charm, dating principally from the Georgian era but with later Victorian extensions. We understand Arradoul House was built around 1748 as a manse but has had a number of uses over the years including a Bed and Breakfast, Nursing Home and as a spacious family residence. The present owner has carried out a number of improvements to the property whilst being careful to retain as many of the period features as possible including the sash and casement windows, split panelled doors, high ceilings with traditional cornicing and plasterwork, working timber shutters and servants’ bells, which will certainly appeal to those seeking a home with charm and character. Arradoul House is both unique and enchanting and would be ideal for a large family, those looking to run a Bed & Breakfast/Guest House but given its commodious accommodation and flexible layout could be suitable for 2 families or multi-generational living. This elegant and fine family home provides spacious, well-appointed accommodation over two and a half storeys and benefits from an oil-fired central heating system, open fires and 3 wood burning stove. The present owner has presented the property well and all fitted floorcoverings, curtains, window blinds and light fittings are to be included in the sale price leaving this stunning country residence in a move-in condition. Viewing is essential and is the only way one can truly appreciate the spacious accommodation and fantastic period features that this very fine home offers.
