Description

This three-bedroom farmhouse in Maud presents a promising opportunity for renovation and investment, set on a generous plot with picturesque countryside views. With approximately 169m² of internal space, the property is ripe for modernization, allowing potential buyers to craft a welcoming family home that aligns with their personal aesthetic. The entrance leads into a vestibule with a practical double cupboard for storage. From here, you're welcomed into the main hallway that connects all living spaces and features a timber balustrade leading to the upper level. The sitting room is spacious, featuring two windows and an unused fireplace that offers the potential for restoration or enhancement. Adjacent to this room is the kitchen, which includes functional dual-aspect windows, fitted wall and base units, integrated appliances such as an oven and hob, and a breakfast bar—an area that can benefit from updates to maximize efficiency and style. The home includes two bathrooms: one equipped with both a bath and separate shower unit, and another dedicated space suitable for refurbishment. The dining room also offers garden views through its window, while the lounge stands out with its open fire feature and dual aspect windows, creating an inviting space. A sunroom adjoins this area; it’s bathed in natural light from multiple windows and could be an excellent retreat once updated. Upstairs, the principal bedroom boasts a charming bay window alongside built-in storage solutions. Both secondary bedrooms also feature bay windows and built-in cupboards; their unique layout presents various design possibilities for those looking to invest in alterations. Externally, the property includes a well-maintained garden bordered by mature shrubs and trees—ideal for enjoying outdoor living or landscaping efforts. Ample parking is available via a large driveway. The home operates on oil-fired central heating with mains water connection. An optional outbuilding—a substantial shed requiring repairs—is available separately for £30,000. This option has been factored into the overall valuation of the property but allows flexibility depending on buyer interest. Located in Knaven within Aberdeenshire's serene rural landscape, this property balances tranquility with convenient access to nearby amenities in villages like New Deer and Auchnagatt. It’s well-positioned for reaching larger towns such as Peterhead and Aberdeen while being enveloped by scenic rolling farmland. With its substantial footprint and flexible layout, this farmhouse not only accommodates immediate living needs but also holds significant potential for development tailored to your vision.
