1 Gairnhill, Countesswells, AB15 8FZ

Originally designed and built by Kirkwood Homes, this property is one of only six townhouses of its kind within the development, making it a particularly rare find. As a former show home, it stands out for its superior specification and thoughtful detailing. The home showcases Kirkwood’s signature oak internal doors, impressively high ceilings, and luxurious finishes throughout, including high-quality fitted bathrooms and a stylish, contemporary kitchen. The accommodation extends across three generous floors, with notably spacious hallways at each level, which enhances the overall sense of openness.

The ground floor begins with a generous hallway offering ample storage, including a double cupboard housing meters and internet infrastructure, all neatly tucked away. The bright and stylish lounge to the front enjoys views over the garden and greenery beyond, with large windows flooding the space with natural light. High-end herringbone flooring flows seamlessly throughout the ground floor.

To the rear lies a beautifully appointed dining kitchen, accessible from both the hallway and via double pop-out doors from the lounge – ideal for semi open-plan entertaining. The kitchen is fitted with sleek cabinetry and integrated appliances, including luxury touches such as a warming drawer, wine fridge, and disguised extractor fan. Bifold doors lead directly to the rear garden, perfect for enjoying outdoor space during the warmer months. Adjacent to the kitchen, a utility room provides a practical area for laundry, keeping the main living areas clutter-free. A ground floor WC, complete with stylish feature wallpaper, completes this level.

The first floor hosts a versatile second lounge which could easily serve as a fifth bedroom if desired. This peaceful space enjoys charming countryside views and features traditional wood panelling and a designer column radiator, making it an ideal retreat for relaxing. The spacious principal bedroom suite is also on this floor, offering a large dressing room and a luxurious, fully tiled en-suite with freestanding bathtub, walk-in double rainfall shower, dual sinks with vanity storage, and WC with concealed cistern. The landing area is currently used as a home office but offers flexibility for various uses.

Upstairs, there is a large double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and its own modern en-suite shower room – ideal for guests or older children. Two further double bedrooms, each with integrated storage, are also located on this floor. They are served by a beautifully finished family bathroom featuring metro tiling, a bath, separate freestanding shower, concealed cistern WC, and vanity unit. A shelved linen cupboard, which also houses the hot water tank, provides convenient storage, while a Ramsay ladder gives access to a fully floored and shelved loft space.

To the front, a lock-block driveway accommodates up to three vehicles, bordered by a neat garden that wraps around to a side gate offering entry to the rear garden. Rear access is also available via the bifold kitchen doors or through the utility room. The secure and private rear garden is ideal for families or pet owners. Professionally landscaped, it includes areas of decking, artificial lawn, granite chips, and patio, all framed by mature planting for a low-maintenance, year-round outdoor space.

Just 15 minutes from Aberdeen city centre, Countesswells perfectly blends rural tranquillity with urban convenience. The area enjoys excellent public transport links to the city, Kingswells, and Westhill via the nearby Park-and-Ride. The recently opened primary school and future educational developments enhance the area’s family appeal. Proximity to the Aberdeen Western Peripheral Route provides quick connections to Stonehaven, Balmedie, and Ellon, while Aberdeen Airport is only a 20-minute drive away.

This exceptional property is presented in true move-in condition, with all window coverings, integrated kitchen appliances, and most light fittings included in the price. Early viewing is highly recommended to avoid disappointment.
