Set amidst approximately two acres of private, mature garden grounds in Milltimber, a sought-after suburb of Aberdeen just 6 miles west of the city centre, this charming seven bedroom detached villa, built with a pleasing mix of pink and grey granite, dating from circa 1905 and offers spacious, beautifully proportioned accommodation that includes a self-contained annexe apartment.

Internally, the property retains a wealth of original character, with period detail reflecting the quality of early 20th century workmanship. Features include traditional fireplaces and panelled doors. A fine oak staircase forms an impressive focal point within the main house, rising gracefully between floors, while the adjoining annexe benefits from its own secondary staircase, lending flexibility and independence to the accommodation.

Culter Lodge is an impressive two-storey residence spanning over 5,000 square feet across two floors. With its distinctive windows, fine stonework and Jacobean-style gable detailing it has an Arts and Crafts feel that is typical of country homes of the Edwardian period, making for a characterful and inviting exterior.

Inside, the accommodation begins with a useful vestibule which opens into a welcoming L shaped reception hall with broad polished floorboards and a splendid oak staircase which curves up to the first floor. All the main living space is off the hall: there are three reception rooms which would traditionally have been the drawing room, sitting room, and dining room. Each has large windows bringing in plentiful natural light, and original fireplaces. The dining kitchen is the hub of the house and has a wonderful terracotta-tiled floor and warming AGA in traditional British Racing Green. In addition to the AGA there are two ovens and an electric hob, and extensive fitted cabinetry along with generous space for informal dining. French doors open onto the garden and a utility room sits usefully off.

Upstairs the main house has five double bedrooms including the principal bedroom which benefits from a spacious bathroom with both bath and separate shower. There are two further bathrooms servicing the other three bedrooms.

Culter Lodge is currently configured with a self-contained two floor annexe which is effectively the east wing of the house. As this forms part of the main building it could easily be reincorporated into the house if preferred. The annexe comprises a fitted kitchen and two reception rooms on the lower level and two bedrooms and a bathroom on the upper level.

Outside: Culter Lodge is set in an especially generous plot of about 2 acres, offering wonderful seclusion and privacy. The driveway provides parking and access to the garage. The garden is predominantly expanses of lush lawn interspersed with planted areas and mature trees. Most of the boundaries are of stone walls and fencing.

Garage: Detached from the property is a tandem garage with a slate-clad lean to roof.
