Summary - 3, FOREST ROAD AB15 4DE
5 bed 3 bath Terraced
Spacious family house with mature walled garden and peaceful study opening.
Five bedrooms across three floors, 2,573 sq ft of living space
This substantial five-bedroom Victorian terraced house offers family-sized living across three floors in Aberdeen’s leafy West End. Built in the 1870s from Rubislaw granite and located in the Albyn Rubislaw Conservation Area, the house keeps many original features: high ceilings, ornate cornicing, Arts and Crafts panelling and open fires. The interiors have been tastefully presented by the current owner’s interior-designer family member and are immediately appealing.
Accommodation is generous and versatile, with formal sitting and dining rooms, a bright living room/study opening to the garden, a fitted kitchen with granite worktops and a useful utility. The principal bedroom has an en suite with a Japanese bath; additional bedrooms and two more bathrooms are arranged across the upper floors. Practical extras include a floored attic cupboard, cellar storage and a stone potting shed off the garden.
Outside, the mature, walled gardens are private and well stocked, with a pebbled sitting area, lawn, colourful borders and a small pond with water lilies. A rear gate provides pedestrian access to Queens Lane South. Local amenities and highly regarded private and state schools are within walking distance, and the city centre is a short drive.
Notable considerations: the EPC is rated D and council tax is described as quite expensive; the immediate area records higher levels of deprivation. The property is freehold and offered for the first time in over 30 years, providing strong scope for long-term family enjoyment or sensitive updating to enhance energy performance.
