Although big houses can be expensive to run – winter energy bills can be a shock in the smallest of pads – a group of flatmates can help cut the costs quite dramatically.
On the rental market in Aberdeen, Schiehallion at 295 Broomhill Road is up for grabs for just £1,950 a month on an unfurnished basis.
With five bedrooms, the grand abode can easily house a group of students or young professionals which if shared equally, would bring the monthly rent to £390.
The living room boasts a large bay window overlooking the sheltered garden and the traditional fireplace gives the area its homely ambience.
Just next door, there’s an open dining room which is perfect for dinner parties.
The kitchen is modern and fitted with a breakfast bar which gives plenty of room for informal dining. It also features a double hob, oven and grill.
The double bedrooms span two floors and have plenty of room for storage and furniture, while the bathroom and showerroom will help cut the morning queues.
Outside, the back garden boasts a decked patio and a gardener will be included in the lease agreement so there will be no need to worry about having to cut the grass every week.
Broomhill Road is in the south-west of Aberdeen and the area and is well served by public transport links and shops.
