Description
Leddach House is a traditional granite and slate dwelling, with portico entrance and policies extending to approximately 1.48acres, and is situated on the outskirts of Elrick, a picturesque rural community which lies to the west of Aberdeen city centre. Constructed in 1879, this Victorian mansion enjoys the benefits of far reaching countryside views but with the convenience of the city`s amenities on the doorstep, as well as easy access to the airport. The versatile and spacious accommodation with lofty ceilings spans three floors, and is offered for sale with carpets, curtains, window blinds, light fittings and integrated appliances included. The extremely stylish and elegant presentation with attractive period detail in the form of stained glass windows, exposed woodwork, paneled doors, dado and picture rails and double height skirting`s, sits comfortably with the modern oil fired central heating system with LPG fuelled gas fires, effective double and secondary glazing, and a security and fire alarm system.
The accommodation comprises an impressive reception vestibule and hallway with sweeping staircase to the upper floors. The double frontage has equally well proportioned rooms, a drawing room and dining room, both featuring traditional fireplaces and dual aspect outlook. The country kitchen has an Aga and ample space for dining and next to it is a utility room, boot room and upper store room. The ground floor layout is completed by a shower room, and entry to the private accommodation with self contained easterly access. From the elongated hallway on the first floor there are two master suites, both with luxury bathrooms, an informal sitting room with views across the garden grounds, a family bathroom with shower, and a well designed study with fitted bookcases. On the top floor, there are another two very spacious bedrooms, and a smaller room which could be used as a bedroom, study, nursery or store room.
The private accommodation previously mentioned has its own entrance door on the east side, and consists of a lounge and kitchen on open plan, and a double bedroom, considered ideal for those wishing to operate a business from home, for elderly family members, or nanny accommodation.
