Dating back to the 1900s, Mains of Logie is a traditional steading converted in 1991 into an exceptionally spacious family home. It was later extended to create even more space for its owners.
This would be a fantastic home for those who want the charm and character of an older property but don’t want to necessarily convert it themselves. Here at this home in Dinnet, near Aboyne, that’s exactly what you get.
While it has been converted, it has been sympathetic and has retained many of the features that make this home so interesting.
This splendid granite home, full of character and charm, boasts a blend of exposed granite and pine clad walls throughout. High beamed ceilings are evident within the drawing room and dining kitchen along with bay windows in various rooms, upholstered bench seats as well as several open fireplaces. The striking drawing room features an inglenook granite fireplace with a wood-burning stove, seated bay window, twin patio doors and hardwood flooring.
The open-plan kitchen is fitted with a wide range of units, certain integrated appliances along with a central island. The large dining area can comfortably seat several people and is ideal for entertaining.
Another highlight is the east-facing sun room, featuring a wood-burning stove and window bench. Just off the sun room lies a cosy snug with an open fire. There is also a games room or study, six bedrooms – two of which have en-suite facilities – and a family bathroom.
One of my favourite things about this home is how light and bright it is. It is flooded with natural light throughout which only enhances the natural beauty of the surrounding countryside.
Outside the steading, on the market for offers over £450,000, the grounds extend to 0.96 acres. Magnificent views from all angles can be enjoyed of the unspoilt countryside and towards Morven and Culblean Hill.
And if this isn’t enough, there is also a chance to buy a separate three-bedroom traditional detached croft.
