It’s not often that such outstanding contemporary homes come on the market in the increasingly popular area of Aberdeenshire, however CKD Galbraith are now marketing East Craigiacatt; a property which ticks all the boxes.
Located in the much sought after Netherley area, the house sits proudly on an elevated site between Stonehaven on the coast and Maryculter to the west.
The perfect pad for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and yet still be within easy commuting distance of Aberdeen city centre, which is a mere 12 miles away.
East Craigiacatt was designed and constructed for Justin and Nina Williams some 10 years ago by internationally renowned architect Gokay Deveci, and not only offers a stunning family home, but was created with green, low-energy design at the forefront.
The house benefits from a number of energy-saving features including triple glazing, underfloor heating, solar panels and a wind turbine erected in 2007.
A striking wooden door with glass side panel opens into a most welcoming and spacious reception area.
As with any good property, the kitchen is the heart of the house and East Craigiacatt has a truly fantastic kitchen designed to be the hub of family life. The room has a tiled floor and cathedral-style ceiling with exposed beams and six skylight windows filling the space with natural light. This is perfect entertaining space, sure to wow any guest.
The ground floor also holds a beautiful lounge with cathedral-style ceilings and skylights. The focal point of the room is the stunning inglenook open fire with stone hearth and granite mantle.
Another unique feature of East Craigiecatt is the striking central atrium linking the public and bedroom wings and providing a stunning outlook over the grounds towards the hills. The bedroom wing includes four spacious bedrooms and a large family bathroom and en suite to one of the bedrooms.
Moving upstairs to the first floor, there is a family or games room as well as the impressive master bedroom suite with dressing area and en suite. No attention to detail has been spared in this outstanding build; all the doors, skirtings, picture rails and staircases are finished to white oak wood throughout.
Jordan MacKay, handling the sale for CKD ~Galbraith, said: “Viewers of East Craigiacatt will be instantly drawn to the high-quality finishes and the vast, bright spaces this superb property has to offer.
“A family home of this calibre, in such an ideal location from the city centre, is rare and we expect this outstanding property to attract attention from across the country as well as from abroad.
“The nearby coastal town of Stonehaven enjoys a large tourist trade throughout the year. With its stunning beaches, tranquil harbour and ample choice of bars and restaurants, it’s a fantastic area to live in and enjoy.”
