Wester Changehill, Newmachar, Aberdeen, Aberdeenshire, AB21 0RR

Occupying a highly desirable plot, the home commands far-reaching views across open fields towards the city skyline and the rolling hills beyond, including Bennachie. The elevated position ensures a wonderful sense of space, privacy and ever-changing countryside vistas throughout the seasons.

This impressive five-bedroom detached home was individually built by the current owners just five years ago to an exacting standard, with sustainability and energy efficiency at its core. Eco-conscious features include an air source heat pump, thirteen solar panels (eight west-facing and five east-facing to maximise year-round efficiency), full double glazing, a wood-burning stove, underfloor heating across the ground floor, and an electric vehicle charging point. Together, these elements create a home that is both environmentally responsible and economical to run.

High-quality finishes are evident throughout. Amtico flooring extends across the principal ground floor living areas, combining durability with contemporary style, while a refined neutral décor enhances the sense of light and space.

The welcoming entrance vestibule offers ample space for coats and footwear and leads into an impressive reception hallway. Decorated in calm, modern tones, this spacious area benefits from two deep storage cupboards, one of which discreetly houses the underfloor heating manifold.

The lounge is a beautifully proportioned room, flooded with natural light from sliding patio doors to the front. A wood-burning stove forms an attractive focal point, adding warmth and character, while the quality flooring and underfloor heating ensure year-round comfort.

Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the open-plan kitchen and dining area — an exceptional space designed for both everyday family life and entertaining. The high-specification Ashley Ann kitchen features an extensive range of premium base, drawer and wall units, complemented by coordinated worktops and splashbacks. A central island with integrated hob enhances both functionality and sociability. Integrated appliances and continued Amtico flooring complete the refined finish. Sliding patio doors from the dining area open directly onto the enclosed rear garden, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. Framed by open countryside views, this bright and welcoming space is ideal for relaxed dining or hosting guests.

Adjoining the kitchen is a practical boot room with direct access to the rear garden, leading through to a well-appointed utility room. The utility offers additional storage, coordinating worktops, a sink, and space for laundry appliances, along with internal access to the double garage.

Also located on the ground floor is the fifth bedroom — a spacious and versatile room currently used as a home office and gym, but equally suited as a playroom, guest bedroom, or additional family room. A contemporary shower room with a crisp white suite and stylish shower enclosure completes the downstairs accommodation.

A carpeted staircase leads to the upper floor, where four well-proportioned bedrooms provide comfortable family living.

The principal suite enjoys particularly stunning views across the surrounding countryside towards Bennachie. It benefits from a generous walk-in dressing area and a beautifully finished en-suite bathroom featuring both a separate bath and shower.

The second bedroom is spacious and includes a large walk-in wardrobe. Bedrooms three and four are also well-sized and benefit from built-in storage. The family bathroom is finished to a high standard and includes both a bath and separate shower. A hatch provides access to the loft space.

Externally, the property is surrounded by an idyllic, well-maintained garden, primarily laid to lawn and complemented by a substantial patio area — the perfect vantage point from which to enjoy sunny days and uninterrupted rural views. The fully enclosed garden provides a safe environment for children and pets. A storm-proof “Rhino” greenhouse and log store are included, further enhancing the property’s self-sufficient appeal. The air source heat pump is discreetly positioned to the side of the house.

Properties of this calibre and setting rarely come to market. With its thoughtful layout, superior fixtures and fittings, outstanding energy efficiency, and breathtaking countryside outlook, this is an exceptional family home. Early internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality and lifestyle on offer.

The property will be sold inclusive of all fitted floor coverings, curtains, blinds, light fittings and integrated kitchen appliances. The solar panels, Rhino greenhouse, log store and EV charger are also included in the sale.
