Established smallholding with stables, manège and paddocks close to Peterhead.
Five-bedroom modern farmhouse with vaulted sitting room and extensive views
Set within an elevated rural setting with coastal views, West Woodside is an established smallholding and equestrian facility offering immediate use or scope to develop further. The property combines a spacious modern farmhouse finished to a high standard with extensive outbuildings: a 135sqm stable block for five horses, a 450sqm manège, covered storage and additional agricultural sheds. The house provides flexible family accommodation across two floors with five bedrooms, three bathrooms and generous living spaces overlooking paddocks and landscaped garden grounds.
The holding extends to around 2.75 acres of grass paddocks arranged in six fields, ideal for grazing and hay production, plus approximately 2.86 acres designated for woodland replanting. Good internal tracks, gated access points and piped water to outbuildings support routine stock management and turnout. Practical features include ample parking, a purpose-built workshop, stone garage, converted rail carriage and a stone bothy that provides extra flexible space.
Buyers should note a legal obligation to reinstate the 2.86 acres as woodland (quotations available) and that broadband is recorded as very slow—important if remote working is required. Services are mains water and electricity with oil central heating and private drainage to a septic tank; maintenance of older croft buildings and some outbuildings will be an ongoing consideration. The property is freehold, EPC band D and council tax band C.
This holding suits equestrian purchasers, small-scale livestock keepers or families seeking a rural lifestyle with substantial outbuildings in place. It offers immediate equine capability, good local hacking and direct access to the Buchan coastline and nearby towns for amenities and transport links.
