Set on approximately 1.5 acres in a tranquil agricultural setting near Huntly, Denhead Steading is a substantial detached farmhouse offering generous living space and rural character. The house extends to around 324 m² (3,488 sq ft) with four double bedrooms, five bathrooms and a large open-plan kitchen/dining area centred on a feature fireplace and wood-burning stove. Multiple reception rooms, a conservatory and substantial utility provide flexible family living. The south-facing garden, orchard and patio maximise sunlight and outdoor use.
An old steading/garage sits on the plot and could be developed subject to securing planning consent — a clear opportunity for an annexe, workshop or conversion for additional value, but no permissions are currently in place. The property will particularly suit buyers wanting space, privacy and the scope to modernise or adapt rooms to suit their needs.
Buyers should note practical constraints: broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average, which may affect remote working. The immediate area is classified as remoter and agricultural, and local area deprivation is recorded as very deprived; conveniences are reached via nearby Huntly rather than on-site.
Overall, this is a rare country home for purchasers seeking expansive accommodation, outdoor land and development potential. It presents strong long-term scope for improvement and enhancement, balanced by the need to manage connectivity and any planning process for the steading conversion.
