7 bedroom detached house for sale

Idyllically situated on the rural fringes of the charming village of Bangor-on-Dee, yet within easy reach of transport links, fantastic schools and cultural centres, period charm mingles with modern creature comforts, at Deeside.

Nestled in almost six acres, Deeside, with its riverside setting, tennis court, swimming pool, enchanting gardens and four-acre paddock, is so much more than a home; it is a way of life.

A home reloved by its current owners, who have overseen a series of renovations and refurbishments, respectful of its 19th Century heritage, Deeside is a secluded sanctuary. Set back from the road behind its mature gardens and electric gated entrance.

Sweep up the gravel driveway, as it cuts through the mature, tree-lined lawns and ornamental pond, before arriving at the large courtyard, where parking facilities are ample, with two garages also available.

An imposing yet inviting home, the whitewashed façade of Deeside sits amongst the acres of surrounding jade fields.

Welcome home
Step through the front door into the light, bright and welcoming entrance hall, where wooden flooring extends underfoot, and the first glimpses of preserved period features can be seen in the deep coving, chair rails and ornate architraves.

Making your way through to the right, the serene sitting room is flooded with light courtesy of a series of tall bay and sash windows, framing as watercolour snapshots the verdant surrounds.

Carpeted in soft grey underfoot, this spacious and sublime sitting room is the perfect place to entertain. French doors open to the paved patio, perfect for a glass of Pimm's with friends in the summertime.

In winter, warmth emanates from the open fire inset within its attractive surround.

Feast your eyes
Returning to the entrance hall, continue ahead to reach the formal dining room, carpeted underfoot once again, and with seated bay windows affording spectacular views out over the gardens. A glazed door opens to the side patio, whilst warmth emanates from the brick fireplace.

Stepping down to the rear of the entrance hall, original red and black tiling flows out underfoot as you approach the kitchen. Passing a door that leads down to the cellar, enter a rear lobby area, off which you can find a series of practical and versatile rooms.

With fantastic views out over the rear garden, sneak a peek at the room that currently serves as a home office, where an open fire crackles merrily from within its brick surround. French doors opening to the glorious gardens mean this room could also function beautifully as a home gym or yoga room, bringing the outdoors in.

There is also a rear porch to this section of the home which is ideal as a boot room or for your canine companions' beds. Off this area, a corridor leads to the integral garage, a laundry room and further storage area. Guests can also make use of the handy downstairs WC.

Wine and dine
Feast your eyes on the handsome country-style farmhouse kitchen, where wood-effect parquet flooring flows out underfoot. Cream and sage green cabinetry mirrors the natural surrounds of Deeside, offering abundant storage, with ample space for a Range style cooker, dishwasher, fridge-freezer and dishwasher.

From the entrance hallway, ascend the stairs to the spacious, light filled landing, where light floods in through a large window.

With room for all the family and friends, on this first floor you can find six potential bedrooms, which offer fantastic flexibility for a range of uses.

Annex accommodation
With six, spacious and serene bedrooms available in the main home, Deeside also offers additional living space, for family and friends or potentially for use as Airbnb accommodation, in the annex.

With a separate kitchen, downstairs WC and two good sized bedrooms and a fully fitted bathroom to the first floor, this independent living space is also ideal for older children or multigenerational living.

Enchanting gardens
Outside, the spectacle of Deeside flows seamlessly on from the home, where manicured lawns and paddock land extend over around six acres.

Private, peaceful and wrapped up in rurality, escape the hustle and bustle in this secluded sanctuary. Well stocked borders and a fringe of mature trees ensure Deeside retains a quiet, natural feel, with a host of features including a handsome feature pond, woodland walks, and a fruitful area once used as a vegetable garden, featuring a greenhouse and a potting shed.

A home where children can enjoy an idyllic upbringing in the outdoors, Deeside also boasts its own hard tennis court, whilst a true highlight of the home is the outdoor swimming pool, nestled within a walled, sheltered garden, and arrived at beyond an enchanting brick arched gateway.

Stretch out on the patio and soak up the sunshine, before taking your morning swim, followed by breakfast on the terrace.

Deeside also comes with a paddock of around four acres, and with its selection of outbuildings and access via Overton Lane, could be perfect for keeping ponies.

Stroll along the 200m of river frontage, with fishing rights, that accompanies Deeside, just across the road from the home, or pack a picnic and your rods and enjoy the peace and tranquility.
