Kirkstane House is a substantial Grade B listed six-bedroom family home set in approx 1.4 acres of mature, private grounds. Dating from 1779 and extended in the 19th century, the property retains many historic features — sash windows (several recently replaced), high ceilings, feature fireplaces and original Caithness flagstone floors — giving immediate period character and generous living space for a large family.
Ground floor living is versatile with three reception rooms, a large farmhouse-style dining kitchen, utility and shower room, while upstairs six double bedrooms (plus box room) and dressing rooms provide plentiful accommodation. The grounds include a walled garden, cedar summer house, duck pond and small woodland, approached via a gravelled avenue and granite pillars; the drive circles the house with extensive parking.
Important practical points: the house is Grade B listed which will restrict external and internal alterations and may complicate works or conversions. Broadband speeds are slow; the EPC is Band E; council tax is described as very expensive. Despite these constraints, the property is chain-free, well maintained by its long-standing owners, and positioned ten minutes from Aberdeen Airport and close to Westhill’s shops and services — appealing to commuting families seeking countryside living with convenient access to amenities.
