Set in the heart of the picturesque Aberdeenshire village of Auchaenblae, The Willows is a substantial sandstone ‘B’ Listed townhouse brimming with character, history, and refined living. Formerly the village bank house, this elegant three-storey home has been meticulously upgraded by the current owners, blending timeless Victorian features with contemporary style to create a truly unique and versatile family home. From the moment you enter, The Willows impresses with its graceful proportions, intricate cornicing, original fireplaces, sash and case windows, and beautiful bay fronts. Every element has been carefully restored or enhanced to remain in harmony with the original architecture.
The welcoming hallway leads to two grand reception rooms—each with high ceilings, ornate fireplaces, and large bay windows—perfect for entertaining or quiet relaxation. The heart of the home lies to the rear, where an open-plan kitchen/living/dining space combines style with functionality. The well-appointed kitchen includes a central island, ample cabinetry, and space for both integrated and freestanding appliances. A wood-burning stove anchors the living area, making it a warm, social hub. A large utility room adds everyday convenience.
A bespoke staircase ascends to a spectacular first-floor drawing room—once the village banking hall—now a light-filled, dual-aspect space with original full-height windows and exposed floorboards, ideal for entertaining or relaxing in style. The family bathroom, complete with a luxurious roll-top bath, is located on the ground floor.
The first floor features two generously sized bedrooms, both tastefully decorated with ample storage, and served by a stylish shower room. On the second floor, the serene master suite is accessed via an elegant dressing room. Two further bedrooms complete the upper level, each enjoying elevated views and matching the home’s elegant décor.
Adjoining The Willows, Granary Cottage is a beautifully renovated one-bedroom annex with a private entrance via Kintore Street. Echoing the main house’s sophisticated styling, this charming space features a welcoming hallway, spacious lounge, modern kitchen with integrated appliances, and a double bedroom with a contemporary en-suite shower room. It presents an ideal opportunity for continued Airbnb income or multi-generational living, and can be sold fully furnished by separate negotiation.
The enclosed rear garden offers a peaceful retreat, featuring a large lawn and a generous decked patio—ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining. A large workshop under Granary Cottage is fully powered and lit, suitable for a range of uses. An additional store/workshop can be accessed from Kintore Street. The front garden is neatly landscaped with shrubs and a flagstone path leading to the main entrance.
The Willows is a truly exceptional period home offering generous and flexible living space, beautifully restored and thoughtfully modernised throughout. With its rich heritage, elegant interiors, successful Airbnb annex, and idyllic village setting, this unique property presents a rare opportunity for discerning buyers seeking character, comfort, and income potential—all in one outstanding residence.
