Explore one of the most impressive homes on the market in Aberdeen right now
Look at the photograph of the exterior of this home and try and tell me you are not impressed. This stunning structure is a great example of the architectural beauty you can find in the Granite City.
Number 14 Hamilton Place is a magnificent detached listed Victorian villa which was converted into two distinct apartments some years ago. However, it could be reinstated into a one large home easily. Either way, you are going to end up with a beautiful home, given the amount of elegance and character the two apartments feature now.
In the lower apartment, many of the original features have been retained and, although more modern additions have been added, such as a contemporary kitchen/dining area, full gas central heating and double-glazed windows, these do not detract from the original grandeur of the property. Quite the opposite, really.
There are many rooms of note, including the bright lounge which features gorgeous ornate plasterwork on the ceiling, pitch-pine high skirtings and wood panelling in the bay windows. The bay windows have an extra-special element in the form of the original leaded stained glass.
Also sure to impress is the master bedroom, a spacious room with two windows and a large inbuilt triple wardrobe and the open-plan kitchen and dining room which is both pleasing to the eye and practical, with lots of work and storage space.
The impressive upper-floor apartment takes up the entire first and top floors of the building and is jam packed with lots of elegant rooms. There is a sitting room, with a most imposing fireplace surround housing a modern natural flame-effect gas fire and framed by original floral tiles, a welcoming family room with sash-and-case-style replacement double-glaze window and two ornate rose ceilings, and a more traditional style dining kitchen. There are also three bedrooms plus a box room.
Outside, the garden at the front of the property is exclusive to the lower flat, subject only to a right of access to the rear of the property in favour of the owners of the upper flat. There is a large garden to the rear of the property and the half of this area nearest the house is the one which pertains exclusively to this lower flat. Again, this is subject only to a right of access to the rear of the garden in favour of the upstairs owners. There is an attractive paved patio area immediately to the rear of the house, with the rest of the garden at a slightly higher level.
The house is available as a whole for offers over £990,000 or as two separate lots: the lower apartment is on the market for offers over £460,000 and the upper apartment is available for £540,000.
