Make this gorgeous steading your home, writes Cheryl Livingstone.
They say that people make a house a home but I think this can work the opposite way around too. The right home can vastly improve your life – and your happiness levels too.
Simply looking at the schedule for this house – The Aul Byre, Denmill Lodge, Peterculter – brightened up my day.
This delightful four-bedroom steading with extensive garden grounds will be available to rent on an unfurnished basis from the end of October, for around £2,100.
The house offers both the charm and character of a traditional steading as well as all the modern amenities you could want, including under-floor oil central heating and double glazing.
The master bedroom has en-suite bathroom and separate dressing room as well as French doors which lead to the courtyard. There are two double rooms with built-in wardrobes and a good-sized single room which could be used for other purposes such as a study.
French doors lead to the lounge and dining area, which has a beautiful stone fireplace with coal fire, sun room where you can enjoy the stunning countryside views, kitchen with informal dining area and French doors leading to the garden. There is also a shower room, utility room, large pantry and store room.
Outside is equally impressive. There is a single garage and ample parking. The back garden is fully enclosed, offering privacy and safety for those with children or pets. There is also a raised decked area and a front courtyard.
The steading is located on the outskirts of Culter, a great location for those looking for the country life but still close to amenities. It is ideally located for those working in Westhill, Dyce and the south of Aberdeen.
