A substantial five-bedroom detached home on a generous suburban plot in Alford, offered with no onward chain. The house provides flexible family accommodation across two storeys, three bathrooms and about 1,507 sq ft, with a garage, off-street parking and a private garden. Double glazing and electric central heating are in place, but the property requires substantial modernisation throughout — an opportunity for a purchaser to add value.
Located within the village of Alford, the house sits close to local shops, eateries and the community campus that houses nursery, primary and academy schooling, plus leisure facilities and the Grampian Transport Museum. Inverurie and Westhill are about a 25-minute drive, while Aberdeen is around 45 minutes, making the home suitable for commuters prepared for rural travel.
Buyers should note clear drawbacks: the property needs significant refurbishment, broadband and mobile signals are only average, and the council tax band is F (relatively expensive). The wider area is classified as remoter communities with higher area deprivation — factors that may affect resale and rental demand. For a growing family or buyer seeking renovation potential in a village setting, this house offers space and scope to modernise and personalise.
