An outstanding property with views of the river Dee, in a highly desirable location
Rioch is a most appealing home, discreetly positioned at the end of a quiet lane. From its rear aspect, the property enjoys an exceptional setting with far reaching views across the River Dee and towards Holt, creating a striking sense of space and tranquillity.
The house has been comprehensively transformed and sensitively adapted by the current owners, resulting in a highly impressive home. The accommodation is both versatile and well considered, having been renovated to a high standard throughout, seamlessly combining modern comfort with a light and airy aesthetic.
Rioch is approached via a private driveway leading to a generous tarmac parking area in front of the house and garage. The garage has previously secured planning consent (now lapsed reference: 19/00323/FUL) and offers considerable scope for conversion into valuable supplementary living space, ideal for guests, multi-generational living or a home office (subject to planning permission).
The ground floor is arranged around a truly impressive entrance hall, with an elegant staircase forming a striking architectural centrepiece. The main receptions rooms benefit from an open plan layout, the principal living room is spacious and light filled, with bi-folding doors providing access to the garden; this leads seamlessly to the superb kitchen, beautifully appointed with a range of high quality fitted units and appliances with a substantial central island. The formal dining space flows from the kitchen and together offer excellent space for dining, entertaining and family living. A practical utility room is accessed from the kitchen and provides further storage, along with direct access to the garden. This level offers highly flexible accommodation, including a generous double bedroom suite with walk in wardrobe and en suite bathroom, a further well proportioned double bedroom, a cloakroom WC and a comfortable snug.
The first floor is approached via a bespoke winding staircase, leading to an exceptional and thoughtfully designed accommodation layout. The principal bedroom suite is particularly notable, comprising a generous bedroom, dressing room and a large, recently refurbished, en suite bathroom. French doors open onto a private balcony, while the suite also enjoys access to a private living room with far reaching views towards Holt. Completing this level is a further bedroom with en suite facilities, a study and useful additional storage.
Externally the garden is a real feature of the property and is laid mainly to lawn with mature shrubs, trees and hedges offering privacy. There is also a patio area which is an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. There are tremendous views from the garden out towards the Rive Dee & Holt.

The house and setting is incredible. I love the views of the river and the accommodation internally has been so well thought out.
