3Description^
The Lodge, Tor Na Dee is a truly unique family home located in Milltimber, one of Aberdeen's most prestigious suburbs, only 5 miles from the city centre.
The Lodge was the former Gate Lodge to Tor Na Dee Hospital which is now a desirable flatted development for over 55's. The former Gate Lodge was demolished 10 years ago and replaced by the modern property seen today, which is set back from the road, with the original granite gate pillars being used to create a private gated driveway from North Deeside Road. The Lodge enjoys tranquil leafy views from every aspect thanks to its wrap around garden and woodland outlook.
The owners have carefully created a home which is both incredibly functional yet modern in its design, with versatile layout offering a fantastic opportunity for any discerning buyer to make this their dream home.
The materials and design practices implemented were beyond its time, when constructed in 2014, with the standard of build still being far higher than that found in most new build homes today. The property comes with Buildmark Cover and NHBC warranty for 10 years from the completion date.
A striking design feature of this home has to be the bespoke zinc roof with matching gutters and down pipes to create a sleek modern look against the treated wood cladding, exposed granite stone and cream harling. The use of zinc ensures for minimum up keep while retaining its appearance forever more.
The external walls, including the garage, are internally insulated with Frametherm 35 (140mm) insulation which has been overlaid with 25mm Celotex ridged insulation and covered with Protec VC foil, with all joints being taped for air tightness.
All this in conjunction with underfloor heating, to the ground floor and bathrooms, and Vent-Axia Heat Recovery and ventilation system creates an incredibly efficient home. Large windows not only fill each room with an abundance of natural light but also creates additional solar gain, which helps to further reduce heating costs.
The entrance hallway immediately sets the tone for the property, with quality glazed oak door leading into the inner hallway which in turn gives access to all of the property's accommodation and houses the beautiful solid oak staircase with oak handrail and balustrades. There is a cupboard below the stairs which is fitted with light and contains the separate Sonos systems with speakers located in the kitchen/ living room and family / dining room.
The heart of this home is definitely the impressive open plan kitchen and living room. The room boasts garden views from all four angles and large glazed doors out to the patio area to the rear, which enhances this already very sociable room. The stylish quality Stoneham kitchen was designed by Kitchen International and features black gloss wall, base and island cabinets with Corian work surface. There are ample Siemens integrated appliance which include steam oven, multi function oven, coffee machine, two warming drawers, under counter fridge, induction hob and Quooker tap. There is a door which gives access to the generous utility room.
The living room focuses around a mall mounted feature gas fire, to create a cosy and inviting atmosphere. There are two large windows which meet in the corner, which is a lovely place to sit and take in the secluded garden views.
To the other side of the inner hallway, the snug is an intimate room to relax and unwind and would make an ideal guest bedroom or office as required.
The family / dining room is an excellent addition to this home, with a peaceful and relaxing feel. The room is large enough for multiple items of free standing furniture. It is currently used as a home gym but would also work well as a dining room or second lounge.
The ground floor accommodation is completed by the large WC with partially tiled walls and storage vanity unit. A door off of the inner hall gives access into the double garage.
Ascending the oak stairs case to the first flood landing, gives access to all of the bedroom accommodation. The landing boasts two large windows on opposite sides of the home to ensure there is ample natural light filling the space. There is a large walk-in airing cupboard with shelving.
All bedrooms on this level, are doubles and offer great versatility in their use, with each boasting built-in wardrobes and high quality en suite showers with under floor heating, heated towel rails, walk-in Mira Showers, Ellis bathroom furniture, Aberdeen tile Centre tiles and sanitary ware from William Wilson. Each en suite is slightly different but the owners have ensured the colours used in each is in keeping with the colour pallet found throughout the home, which allows for each room to have its own personality while seamlessly matching the style found in the rest of the home.
The master bedroom is located to the front of the property and is a haven of relaxation. Boasting superb proportions, a large walk-in wardrobe, en suite bathroom and enviable balcony, this truly is a bedroom to be proud of. The room is enhanced further by two large built-in wardrobes with sliding mirrored doors. The en suite bathroom features the same high quality finishes with sensor touch HIB illuminated demister mirrors and large free standing bath. The balcony is perfectly angled to enjoy the woodland views, while the mature hedging and trees create a degree of separation and privacy from the road.
Four double bedrooms are found on this level with each boasting excellent proportions, built-in wardrobes and en suite shower rooms. Bedroom three is currently used as an office space, with corner windows giving a lovely view towards Cults.
The well maintained garden grounds wraps around the property with a mixture of fencing, mature hedging and established tress enhancing privacy and creating a lovely country feel. The fencing ensures the grounds are fully enclosed for a safe environment for all. The gated entrance features cedar wood cladded electric gates, which can be opened and close by a remote control.
There is a large area of lawn with a corner of the garden being a dedicated wild garden with woodland trees, which is a lovely nod to the property's surroundings. The woodland garden has been fitted with red squirrel feeders and a charming fairy garden. There is a large slabbed patio to the rear with raised flower beds. A slabbed path continues to give access to the utility room.
The Lock Block driveway is a fantastic size and offers off street parking for several cars. The double garage is integrated, and boasts an Horman Electric insulated up and over door, window to the side of the property, power, light, built in storage and door into the inner hallway.

immaculate woodland which forms part of the Binghill Grove
development.
