Fully furnished 2 bed terraced former fishermans cottage in the much sought after location within the traditional fishing community of Footdee (Fittie), where many of the houses have been restored to protect their unique appeal.
The area was laid out by John Smith as two squares of regular cottage houses at the beginning of 19th century and was a bustling community in its own right. In the late 1880s the houses were sold to their tenants and the area has prospered over the years and is now a unique environment and a village within the city. Fantastic coastal walks are on the door step and the property is well placed for a wide range of amenities at Aberdeen Beach including good shopping facilities, restaurants, bars and cafes including the highly regarded Silver Darlings Fish Restaurant. Also nearby is the beach leisure centre with swimming pool, ice skating rink and gymnasium. The city centre is some 5 minutes drive from the property.
The cottage has retained many fine period features whilst undergoing a programme of refurbishment to provide a lovely home full of charm and character. The decoration is fresh and tasteful with co-ordinating flooring and timber framed sash and case windows.
The entrance hall has tiled flooring and a carpeted staircase leading to the upper floor. The lounge is a warm and comfortable room with front aspect, room for dining and a newly installed wood burning stove with traditional style timber surround. On open plan is the kitchen which is fitted with a range of wall and base storage units with co-ordinating worktops.
On the upper floor there is a front facing bedroom with recessed shelving and spacious fitted wardrobe unit with double hanging rails, shelving and drawers. The single bedroom to the rear would make an ideal nursery, day room or study. There is a good sized storage cupboard which houses the central heating boiler. Completing the layout is the lovely, contemporary style bathroom which is fitted with a modern white suite with shower bath, wc and wall hung wash hand basin. There is a mains shower over the bath, glass shower screen and tiled flooring.
External: Large outside store opposite the house. There is common ground within Footdee, such as the flower beds and drying greens, which are maintained by the Council at no additional cost to residents. Unrestricted on street parking in the surrounding area.
