House Of Aquahorthies, Burnhervie, By Inverurie, Aberdeenshire, AB51

This notable estate, known as House of Aquahorthies, offers a unique opportunity for buyers interested in history and renovation potential. The A Listed mansion, built between 1797 and 1799, boasts beautiful pink granite construction and is set in a secluded location surrounded by nature. Although the house has been well-maintained over the years, featuring charming original details like ornate mantlepieces and pitch pine paneling, there remains ample scope for modernization throughout its generous nine-bedroom layout. The property includes additional buildings such as The Stables and Gardener’s Cottage, both of which could benefit from further enhancement or repurposing. Notably, there is a B Listed quadrangle with traditional outbuildings that presents significant conversion potential into residential units—previous plans for six dwellings were approved but have since lapsed. Nestled in extensive grounds that include arable land, woodland, and an ornamental loch with a boathouse, this estate not only provides privacy but also diverse opportunities for landscaping and further development. Given its historical significance and expansive footprint of over 150 acres, this estate stands as an ideal project for those looking to invest in a transformative restoration or innovative redevelopment.
