3 Garden Wood is a quietly elevated, single-storey bungalow ideal for those seeking an easy, low‑maintenance home near Banchory. The L-shaped lounge with triple-aspect windows and French doors opens onto a deck and wraparound garden, offering privacy, woodland views and a peaceful spot for outdoor dining or potting. The property includes a garage, two driveways and established, colourful flower beds that create an attractive, sheltered garden setting.
Internally the layout is practical: two bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, a galley-style kitchen with white goods, and a light bathroom. The home benefits from modern electric heating on Economy 10 timings and level access throughout, making it particularly suitable for retirement or downsizing buyers who value single-floor living and straightforward layout. Communal facilities on the Inchmarlo estate, a resident minibus to Banchory and the Lodge for activities provide social options without leaving the neighbourhood.
Important practical points: the EPC is rated D and heating is electric, so running costs may be higher than homes with gas or more efficient systems. Council Tax is band E (above average). The bungalow sits in an ageing, rural neighbourhood within a wider area described as very deprived; local services are available in nearby Banchory but broader area statistics should be considered. The property is sold freehold and is offered in walk-in condition with scope for cosmetic updating if desired.
For buyers seeking a peaceful single-storey home with private gardens, garage parking and easy access to Banchory’s amenities, this bungalow offers comfortable, independent living in a sheltered, community-focused setting. Its elevated, woodland-facing position and outdoor space are the strongest lifestyle assets.
