With beautiful coastal views, a rich and interesting history and a stunning selection of golf courses, Banff is an ideal place to settle down – if you have the right home that is.

The surrounding Banffshire offers picturesque coastline views, plenty of amenities and a number of castles and distilleries.

We take a look at three properties for sale and how they might just be the perfect spot from which to appreciate the wonderful area of Banffshire.

Seaside Serenity

Outgrown your flat, but not quite ready for a sprawling Victorian house? This charming maisonette stretches over the ground and first floors, featuring three bedrooms, a cosy lounge and a fully fitted kitchen.

Located in the picturesque village of Gardenstown, the property offers uninterrupted views across the sea and the fishing harbour. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy the quieter life, without being too far away from local amenities!

New-fashioned Farmhouse

Rosehall Farmhouse is a beautiful family home, nestled in the countryside approximately nine miles from the town of Banff.

Decorated and maintained to a high standard, the property combines modern comfort and rustic style resulting in the kind of spacious yet cosy home that would be perfect for a family to grow up in.

Aside from the large garden, the rural location offers plenty of free space to explore the outdoors, coupled with panoramic views reaching out over the sea and surrounding countryside.

Run of the Mill

Looking for a bit of history behind your new home? Mill of Durn is a Grade B listed mill conversion which still retains many of its original features – making it a truly unique property.

The accommodation, near Portsoy, spans over three floors, featuring exposed ceiling beams, lime washed stonework and the original mill wheel (now purely for aesthetic purposes of course).

The homey piece of history is set in 1.25 acres of beautiful gardens, featuring an expansive lawn and a grown orchard tree – perfect for garden parties or just sunny family days.
