The utility room is a convenient addition to this home, offering a space for laundry, freezer and other household needs.

The hall connecting the downstairs accommodation is bright and generous, offering flexibility for use as another living, working, or play area. There is also another door that leads to the courtyard garden. The two ground floor bedrooms are neutrally decorated, with built-in storage cupboards, and the back bedroom enjoying a lovely view of the rear garden and benefitting from a large built-in wardrobe. The small office room is ideal for home working and could also be converted into a nursery or dressing room.

The main bathroom comprises a walk-in shower, bath, WC, sink, and heated towel rail. There is also a useful storage cupboard for towels, linens, and toiletries. Above the downstairs bedrooms, bathroom, and office is a further large loft space which could be developed for additional storage.

The landing at the top of the stairs leads to the upstairs bedrooms and a shower room. There is a spacious partly floored loft accessed above the landing through a hatch with a Ramsay ladder, offering excellent additional storage.

Bedroom 1 is a very generous room with two windows and plenty of space for larger furniture. Bedroom 2 is equally spacious, with the addition of a built-in cupboard. Serving the upstairs accommodation is the shower room, which consists of a two-piece white suite, a shower cubicle, a heated towel rail, and additional storage.

At the rear of the property, there is a large, enclosed garden, mainly laid with lawn and mature plants, bushes, and trees. In addition to the front door, the iron gate also gives access to the front garden which extends to the Beach Road and Wellgreen roadsides, signified by bollards and stones, and includes a gravel area for off-street parking. Additional parking is also available on the concreted area of the back garden inside the side gate and is accessed from Wellgreen. The back garden connects via a concreted side passage to the delightful courtyard garden, which is a real sun trap, perfect for enjoying the outdoors in peace and tranquillity. The courtyard is enclosed by a charming iron gate, adding both privacy and character to the space.

The property’s location near St Cyrus beach, with its stunning white sands and dunes, provides an idyllic coastal backdrop. With a deep connection to the village's rich history, this home offers a rare opportunity to live in a place steeped in heritage and charm.

The village provides essential amenities, including a well-stocked Morrisons Daily incorporating a Post Office, village inn, church, nursery, and primary school. Private schooling is available at Lathallan in Johnshaven, and secondary schooling is usually at Mearns Academy in Laurencekirk. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate easy access to the breathtaking St Cyrus Beach, the River Esk, and the St Cyrus National Nature Reserve, as well as nearby championship golf courses, fishing spots, and mountain biking trails. Runners and joggers may appreciate the many quiet routes on the often deserted back roads above the village, along some of which the annual St Cyrus 10K road race takes place, organised by the St Cyrus Solos Running Club. The UK National Cycle Network Route 1 goes right past the house, making it an ideal location for cycling enthusiasts. Excellent road and rail links ensure convenient travel both north and south, including access to the recently opened AWPR. The Stagecoach X7 Coastrider bus service connects between Aberdeen and Dundee along the A92 and runs approximately hourly every day from early morning to late evening. The excellent amenities of Montrose are only about 15 minutes away by car or bus, and Montrose Railway Station is on the East Coast Main Line, handy for frequent direct services to Edinburgh, London, and Glasgow.

History buffs may be taken by the links of Kirkgate House and its surrounding area to the famous Adam family of architects and builders in the 1700s (via the similarly renowned politician and judge William Adam who was the landowner) and to the children’s film Mauro the Gypsy which won an award at the 1973 Moscow Film Festival.

This stunning home in a sought-after coastal setting is a rare opportunity—early viewing is highly recommended.
