66 Springbank Terrace, Aberdeen, AB11 6JZ

Summary details

We are delighted to present to the market this stunning historic four-bedroom terraced house, located on an attractive street in the highly sought-after area of Ferryhill. This elegant property boasts gas central heating and secondary glazed windows, combining comfort with traditional charm. Notably, 66 Springbank Terrace was once home to Alexander Ellis, a celebrated architect born in Aberdeen. Ellis was educated at Robert Gordon's Hospital and Aberdeen University before training under William Smith, the City Architect. He went on to establish his own practice and later formed a partnership with R.G. Wilson, which lasted until 1895. Renowned for his ecclesiastical designs, Ellis made significant contributions to churches across Aberdeen, Dundee, Banff, Ellon, and Fraserburgh, as well as designing the west wing of Blair’s College, leaving an enduring architectural legacy. The current owners have lovingly restored the property, blending modern and traditional elements with great care and attention to detail. Upon entering, you are welcomed into a charming entrance vestibule with ornate original Victorian floor tiles, and a stained glass-panelled door which has been rescued and restored from Aberdeen's Marischal College, leading to the main hallway. The atmospheric lounge is flooded with natural light through its large windows, featuring beautifully restored original flooring and original Italian plasterwork decorative alcoves. To the rear of the ground floor, the master bedroom is a tranquil retreat with monochromatic décor that accentuates its traditional features, including ceiling panelling, deep skirtings, and a stunning tiled fireplace. Completing this level is a practical utility room. On the garden level you’ll find a generously sized kitchen fitted with a range of fixed units. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large pantry cupboard providing excellent additional storage. This level also features a spacious double bedroom, currently used as a home office and gym, a tastefully decorated dining room overlooking the rear garden, a charming traditional-style conservatory for year-round enjoyment, and a neatly designed WC. The garden level also comes with planning permission, building warrant, engineer and architect plans which are in place and valid for the next 3 years. These comprise of the reconfiguration of the current layout, to an open plan kitchen, dining and casual family room, opening out to the garden with Crittall steel French doors. This planning permission also extends to allowing the owner to turn the current utility room into a second bathroom. Ascending to the first floor, you’ll find a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring striking floor and wall tiling, Victorian-style sanitaryware, a white three-piece suite, and an over-bath thermostatic shower.
