Old Manse on Princes Street is a substantial six-bedroom Georgian manse combining period character with recent upgrades. Renovations include rewiring, plumbing, replacement heating, some electric windows and a fully re-slated roof (2014), so the house offers traditional features with modern systems. High ceilings, exposed stone walls, multiple fireplaces and sash windows create an atmosphere of history and grandeur across three floors.
The ground floor provides elegant reception rooms for entertaining and family life, plus a kitchen with timber units and granite worktops, utility room and practical storage. Bedrooms are spread over the first and second floors; principal accommodation with a contemporary shower room sits on the first floor while two further bedrooms and a modern bathroom occupy the top floor — ideal for guests or home offices. Built-in wardrobes and integrated storage help with day-to-day organisation.
Externally the plot is low-maintenance with a tarred driveway, off-street parking, stone gate posts and well-established trees. The front has a flagged/stone area and a lawn with shrub beds while the rear offers a concrete patio — manageable grounds for a property of this size. The house benefits from full ethernet wiring, double glazing in timber frames and good mobile signal, though broadband speeds are described as average.
Notable practical points: the home is C-listed, which will affect alterations and may complicate planning or adaptation. The EPC is D and council tax is above average. The property sits in a part of Huntly with limited local wealth indicators and higher area deprivation, which buyers should weigh against the house’s scale, location close to town amenities and transport links to Aberdeen and Inverness. Vacant possession on completion.
