Cean Na Coil is a striking, large detached house with a charming Tudor-style exterior set in the pretty hamlet of Birse, close to the popular village of Aboyne. The house is arranged over two floors and has a stunning single storey extension which forms the dining/kitchen/living space that opens onto a generous paved rear terrace and the lawned garden.

The house is entered via a porch and into the hallway, off which are two reception rooms to the front: the sitting room (or playroom/large office) with fireplace and lounge/Dining Area. The latter is a substantial room with painted fireplace housing a log burning stove, wood flooring and attractive panelled ceiling. There is also a versatile snug or study which features an electric AGA in Racing Green and has a door out to the garden.

The contemporary rear extension is one of the main highlights of this impressive home. The light & dark painted, handcrafted cabinetry from Drumoak Kitchens creates a stylish tone, complemented by granite worktops, with a central island providing useful informal bar seating. There is an entire wall of bifolding glazed doors which open out completely onto the large paved terrace, creating a fabulous entertaining space. Completing the ground floor is a utility room and WC.

Upstairs a good-sized landing is lit by a skylight and there are four bedrooms off. The principal bedroom is especially impressive and runs the full length of the house, with space for a seating area along with a modern en suite shower room with extra-large shower enclosure. Bedroom two benefits from a pretty bay window and several of the windows on this level are embellished by detailed leadwork. Finally the main bathroom has a freestanding roll top bath and separate shower.

Outside: Double decorative gates form a smart entrance to the practical horseshoe gravelled driveway. There are shrubs to the front and the sheltered paved terrace to the rear where there is also an additional seating area with an awning. Most of the garden is laid in lawn for low maintenance and boundaries are of stone walls along with post and wire fencing. Outbuildings include a timber store and garden shed.

Garage: Large detached garage with side workshop.
