Terset House is a piece of countryside paradise.

Enjoy homemade apple crumble to your heart’s content at this beautiful Banchory home complete with its own orchard.

Wicker baskets at the ready, Terset House is ripe for the picking with a thriving mature orchard, panoramic views of the Lower Deeside and an impressive three-storey detached house with five bedrooms and a self-contained studio.

The orchard is bursting with fruit trees.

The hallway sets the stylish tone of the house.

1.5 acres

Set in 1.5 acres of mature landscaped garden grounds, the property enjoys all the beauty that rural life has to offer while remaining within commuting distance of Aberdeen and the business parks at Kingswells and Westhill.

After picking your five-a-day, the property gets even more delicious inside with most windows offering far-reaching views over the rolling countryside.

Check out the magnificent views from the lounge.

Enjoy a slap-up homecooked meal knowing that you can instantly stretch out on the sofa afterwards.

Panoramic views

As far as entrance hallways go, Terset House offers a welcome like no other with an impressive Canadian white oak staircase leading up to the galleried first-floor landing.

Bringing the outside in, the lounge is where the dramatic scenery can be soaked up from the comfort of the sofa with floor to ceiling windows offering postcard-perfect views.

Brimming with character, a central Caithness stone fireplace with multi-fuel stove separates the lounge and the dining room.
