Description
Originally built in about 1850 as a croft, Craigearn Crofthouse has been developed over the years, with the last extension added in 2015. The property is located at the edge of a particularly friendly and sociable hamlet.
This delightful south facing detached home has a very versatile configuration. A fully glazed porch leads into the welcoming hallway. For those with a hybrid or home working arrangement there is an excellent home office with front facing aspect. The open plan dining kitchen and family room is a superb space for informal everyday living. The kitchen area is fitted with a comprehensive range of base and wall cabinets from Patersons of Oldmeldrum. Appliances include a Hotpoint dishwasher, two Miele refrigerators, Stanley range which heats the hot water and central heating, hob and Miele double oven/ grill. An open archway leads to the family room as an extension of the kitchen space. The rear garden can be accessed from an inner hall with half glazed door. Directly accessible from the hallway are the more formal reception rooms including a sitting room with open fire, from where there are patio doors opening onto a lock block patio area. A shower room is fitted with a back up electric shower, WC and wash basin with fully tiled walls. Accessed via French doors is the elegant drawing room with a Clearview wood burning stove and green granite hearth providing a cosy focal point. The stove is a secondary heating system supplying seven separate radiators. Patio doors and picture windows frame the views of open countryside. An elongated hallway creates a passage with access to the bedroom accommodation. The principal bedroom has lovely views out to rolling farmland and an en suite bathroom comprising white bath, WC, separate corner shower enclosure with waterfall shower and washbasin within a bespoke vanity unit with marble top and large mirror above. Bedroom two again takes advantage of the rural outlook with patio doors into the rear garden. Opposite are two/three further bedrooms. Well appointed is a fully tiled large bathroom with three piece white suite and separate corner shower enclosure with waterfall shower. For everyday domestic tasks is the utility room which is plumbed for a washing machine and has fitted metal shelving. Plumbing is also in place for a sink if required. Particularly versatile is the large integral double garage. This once has an abundance of storage space. There is a concrete floor and Ramsay ladder access to the large floored attic space above. Externally is an up and over door.
With a south facing aspect is an enclosed rear garden mostly laid in lawn with views across the rolling countryside.
Directly opposite the front of the property is a detached workshop with corrugated metal roof. There is a workbench, timber doors, two windows, power and light. Driveway parking for five vehicles.
A wonderful alfresco spot is the walled garden which has a paved and sheltered area. A range of three outbuildings includes an insulated timber workshop with work bench power and light. Adjacent is a lean-to Elite greenhouse. There is a further insulated workshop which has a wood burning stove and could easily be adapted further as a home office. The last outbuilding is again insulated and has power and light and is currently used as a gym. Behind the walled garden is a large lean-to log store. The surrounding garden area is mainly to laid to lawn with many trees.
