2 Crombie House 106 Malcolm Road, Peterculter, Aberdeen, AB14 0XB An energy efficient very modern home with wow factor Aberdeen City Centre 8 miles Open plan lounge/dining room/kitchen Utility room Drawing Room Bedroom 6/Study Double Garage Cloakroom Master bedroom with ensuite bathroom, dressing room and sun terrace Bedrooms 2 & 3 with ensuites Bedrooms 4 & 5 Family bathroom Landscaped garden EPC Rating B The property Crombie House is a certified Passive house, the first in Aberdeen and the only one of its design in the UK. A Passive house is an ultra-low energy building with a reduction in heating costs of up to 90% and provides clean, filtered ambient air quality with a constant comfortable internal temperature. The key aspects of the construction and design include super insulation, high performing passive standard triple glazed windows and doors, air tightness, solar orientation, space heating, ventilation and thermal bridging. The house ultimately provides high levels of indoor comfort all year round using very little energy and so a conventional heating system is no longer required.

4 It sits on a slightly elevated position with a southerly aspect and has picturesque woodland views and a private rear garden. The exterior of the property is finished in a white render with natural sandstone and has contemporary external lighting on both the front and rear aspects. Accommodation spans two floors and offers extremely spacious and versatile rooms which are all flooded in natural light, providing ultra-modern amenities in a stylish and contemporary design. The flooring throughout the property is mainly walnut with ceramic tiling and deep pile carpets and all internal doors are walnut with contemporary chrome door furniture. There is an impressive bespoke staircase with solid walnut treads leading to an upper galleried landing with glass balustrades overlooking the living area. The internal lighting is low energy LED lights on push button and touch dimmer controls. All bathrooms are fully tiled and furnished with Porcelanosa products. There is a German high gloss kitchen with Cosentino silestone countertops and top of the range Siemens appliances. There is wiring for surround sound in the lounge, concealed sockets and USB points, touch switches and dimmers, and there are heated towel rails in all the bathrooms. Constructed to the very highest standards using locally sourced materials and craftsmanship, this stunning, low maintenance, energy efficient, contemporary home can only be appreciated on viewing. It should be noted that as well as the usual fixtures and fittings which are to remain as part of the sale, furniture may also be available, affording buyers an exceptionally easy move. The German Passivhaus building standard is currently the most stringent building regulation in the world and focuses on key aspects of the design and construction of the house. The Passive elements are integral to the build of the home and therefore last the lifetime of the building; offering a robust and long term solution to energy efficiency without the need for additional capital outlay or maintenance. Currently with minimal energy consumption compared to standard houses, there is also provision and planning permission for solar panels/pv, which when installed will satisfy demands for renewable sources and potentially reach zero carbon status. Outside The front garden is bounded by a drystane dyke and fencing and has shallow borders with baby conifers and shrubbery. There is a manicured lawn and a large gravel drive lined with stylish pillar driveway lights. A natural sandstone path wraps around the house with steps to the rear garden. The rear fenced garden is on split level, it has a large lawn on the slightly elevated upper level and a substantial wooden deck with inset lighting below: this is accessed from the lounge and dining room, a lovely enhancement to the living space during the summer or when entertaining. The garden is well screened and affords privacy and leafy views. Location The property is located on the outskirts of the village of Peterculter at the gateway to Royal Deeside within easy reach of the city centre, Westhill, the suburbs and Aberdeen International Airport. The village has a primary school, health and community facilities, post office, library, and a range of shops, as well as a popular 18 hole golf course.
