A family home with land and outbuildings close to the city.
Newtonhill Farm is an extended traditional farmhouse with several outbuildings and about 24 acres of land. This is only the second time the property has been on the market since 1951. The house has a south-facing aspect and dates from around 1900. The sellers added a two storey kitchen extension in 2013.
The house is built of granite under a mostly slate roof with a timber-clad rear extension. There is double glazing throughout and tiled flooring on the ground floor. A glazed front door leads to the wide central hall which allows access to the ground floor accommodation including a separate cloakroom. The large reception room with triple aspect, Jotul wood burner with wooden mantel and fitted cupboard is flexible in its configuration. A square proportioned room on the ground floor could be used as the principal bedroom or an additional reception room. There is an adjacent bathroom with a shower over the bath. In addition to the bathroom is a ground floor cloakroom W/C wash basin. The dining kitchen is a bright and airy room with dual aspect, cream wall and base units and a laminate, wood-effect worktop. Integrated appliances include a Beko oven and a Baumatic induction hob. There is also a fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. A glazed back door in the kitchen leads to the brand new glazed rear porch which has a concrete floor and is open on two sides. The single garage and parking area is adjacent to the rear porch.
On the first floor there are two bedrooms and a shower room above the kitchen in the 2013 extension. Opposite the shower room is a fitted wardrobe. In the original farmhouse are two generous bedrooms each with fitted wardrobes and south facing dormer windows. There is a useful box room in between the bedrooms which is currently used as a study.
The house stands in attractive garden grounds with a number of mature deciduous trees lining the garden. Adjacent to the house and forming the eastern boundary is the former Udny turnpike road. The farm buildings are located to the west of the house and would make an attractive development opportunity. To the west of the farm buildings are the fields.
There is an area of established lawn to the front of the house with some mature shrubs and this is partly screened to the south by a beech hedge. To the rear of the house is a former vegetable garden with a drying green. There is also a small garden shed in the grounds with stone walls under a tin roof, measuring 3.8m x 2.7m.
Land
Included in the sale are about 6 acres of permanent pasture, along with part of an arable field extending to 16 acres. The land surrounds the property to the north, south and west.
