5 bed detached house for sale

Station Terrace, Longside AB42

We are delighted to offer to the market this substantial 5 bedroomed period property located within a very desirable street and commanding views across the local golf course. It offers very spacious accommodation over two levels and maintains all of the very attractive period features expected with a house of this stature including natural pitch pine doors and skirtings. The property benefits from double glazing, off peak night storage electric heating, south facing gardens and detached double garage. Although this property would benefit from some upgrading, it has been a very much loved family home and is in excellent order. We highly recommend viewing to fully appreciate the exceptional accommodation on offer.

Message from the owners Helen and Roger:

For us, Auchingale has been the ideal family home for nearly 40 years. Not only is it a lovely, bonnie house with fine views, it has plenty of room both inside and outside. Longside is an attractive village with so many opportunities and activities for the whole family, including tennis, golf, football, bowling, excellent walking and cycling routes as well as a fine primary school. Needless to say, we will be sad to leave Auchingale and Longside!
