Learn a thing or two by visiting this charming home in Aberdeenshire.
Schools are traditionally associated with teaching people lessons, improving their skills and enhancing their knowledge. And that connection continues at this home, The Schoolhouse in Daviot, Inverurie.
For it will teach anyone that visits how to beautifully master the talent of blending traditional with modern interior and exterior design.
Situated in a secluded setting in the heart of this small village, the traditional granite five bedroom detached schoolhouse retains a host of original features including panelled doors, picture rails and high skirtings, yet has been tastefully upgraded to form a contemporary, light and airy family home.
Rooms of note include the lounge with a magnificent box bay window and fireplace with real fire, a spacious dining room which also has a bay window and easily accommodates a large table, chairs and additional furniture, the recently replaced stylish dining kitchen which has space for a table and includes the fabulous Rangemaster cooking system.
Also sure to impress are the recently installed fully tiled shower room on the ground floor with luxurious under floor heating and the master bedroom where you can enjoy views to Bennachie and has a fireplace with open fire, ceiling cornice, large built-in wardrobes with a fitted dressing table.
Outside the house, on the market for offers over £370,000, sits within an extensive mature plot and comprises pathways, a large lawn and wide landscaped borders filled with a plethora of mature shrubs, bushes and trees.
There is an attached stone outhouse with electricity, coat pegs and shelving. An additional corrugated shed is adjacent. An archway through the conifers leads to an additional shed, a summerhouse and vegetable plots as well as a water tap. The area at the side door is a real sun trap and enjoys views to Mither Tap.
The house is located in Daviot, a small village approximately four miles north of Inverurie and is in the catchment zone for Meldrum Academy for senior pupils and within easy walking distance of Daviot Primary School.
The village hall is well used by user groups including the well established playgroup and parent and toddler group and it is within commuting distance of Inverurie, Dyce and Aberdeen.
