Read the full agent description

70 Church Street, Portsoy is a stunning traditional stone detached “Fisher Cottage” that has previously undergone a complete renovation. The current owners have extensively and sympathetically continued to renovate to create a truly unique cottage exuding charm and appeal that will immediately impress.

On entering the property, you are greeted by a traditional hallway, leading to the lounge with dual aspect windows and a wood-burning stove. The impressive open-plan dining kitchen is awash with natural light and is undoubtedly the heart of this beautiful cottage, with a wealth of hand-painted units and bespoke worktops encompassing a stunning range cooker. The kitchen also benefits from a mezzanine floor, which is currently used as an office; a wood-burning stove and access to the rear garden complete the kitchen.

Further accommodation on the ground floor consists of a spacious, bright and airy third bedroom with dual aspect windows, with wooden floorboards and an original fireplace making it ideal as a guest room.

A wooden stairway leads to the first floor, where you have two very spacious, bright and airy double bedrooms; a three-piece family bathroom with roll-top bath completes this amazing cottage. Further benefiting from hand-built sash and case double-glazed windows, gas central heating, immaculate decor and an abundance of original features.

An entrance path allows access to the side of the property and gated rear garden. Fully landscaped over several levels with inter-winding footpaths and borders containing a wealth of mature shrubs, plants and seasonal flowers. A lawned area with a small pond adds to the appeal of this garden. At the very top of the garden, giving some sea views, is a small summer house and separate seating area, perfect for entertaining and enjoying the late afternoon sun. There is also a small outhouse, used as a wood store. The garden is walled and gated and provides a safe environment for those with children and pets. There is private off-road parking for up to 2 cars on nearby land.

This ideally located property would suit a professional couple and has huge investment potential as a family holiday home or holiday rental. Early viewing is a must to fully appreciate the standard of workmanship, the location and the accommodation on offer.

Note: The current owners have applied for and have been granted permission to add a two-storey extension across part of the rear of the property; a copy of the plans can be made readily available.
