Description

An exceptional opportunity to acquire a substantial plot extending to approximately 4.73 acres, beautifully positioned within the prestigious Fasque Estate, near the charming village of Fettercairn in Aberdeenshire. Full planning permission has been granted for the construction of a single residential dwelling, offering a rare chance to create a bespoke home in an idyllic countryside setting. The plot has been carefully enhanced by the current owners with the installation of a new double boundary fence around the entire perimeter and the planting of hedgerows, ensuring privacy and a natural landscape feature. Mains electricity, water, and telephone services are already available on-site; installation of a septic tank will be required by the purchaser. Fasque House, also known as Fasque Castle, is a magnificent baronial mansion located nearby. Rich in history, the estate was once owned by the father of William Gladstone, a former Prime Minister of Great Britain.

The area offers a tranquil rural lifestyle with a range of local amenities close at hand, blending seclusion with convenience in one of Aberdeenshire’s most scenic and sought-after locations.
