Favourite fixer-upper

The site of Greendams Cottage is a rare opportunity to create your perfect home on a picturesque plot surrounded by countryside views of open fields which is nestled in the village of Drumoak where peaceful seclusion can be enjoyed despite the town of Banchory being a convenient 10-minute drive away.

This plot is on sale for £125,000 and is marketed by Galbraith, Aberdeen, via OnTheMarket.

The site is currently sheltered by mature trees and can be accessed from a quiet, private track road. A drystone dyke wall stands on the grounds, where there is currently planning permission for a detached four-bedroom home to be constructed alongside a garage which would be built from the stone cottage which still remains.

While there is much work to be done, for a buyer with vision and ambition, there is every potential for this plot to be transformed into a fabulous home and gardens to be enjoyed by generations to come.
