There are forest walks in Inglismaldie Forest. Description Crosspoles Old Kirk, as the name suggests, was originally a Church of Scotland church, which is believed to date from the mid 19th century. In later years it was used as a workshop and car display showroom, but was converted into a house some 12 or 13 years ago. In 2017 the house has been redecorated and as such is well presented. Externally new boundary fences have been erected, separating the house from the former manse next door, which is believed to be of a similar date. Crosspoles Old Kirk benefits from an upstairs sitting room which has views to the hills, together with an open plan living room and kitchen on the ground floor. It has two en suite bedrooms together with three further bedrooms, one of which was previously used as a study. Three of the bedrooms are downstairs, with two being upstairs, including the master bedroom. Also at ground floor level is an internal hallway and a utility room, which links through to the integral garage. Given its location close to the dual carriageway, and its junction with the B974 (Marykirk to Fettercairn road), the house could lend itself well to uses such as bed and breakfast. The house is fully double glazed.
It is an attractive stone built property with a slate roof. While it is modern internally it benefits from traditional features such as cornicings. Gates open onto a gravelled parking and turning area. A glazed entrance door opens to a vestibule with a tiled floor, and an inner door to an imposing open plan living room/kitchen. The living area has a glazed door to the garden and engineered oak flooring. The fully fitted kitchen has wall and floor units with tiled splashbacks with a Leisure Roma 100 range cooker with double oven/grill, five ring hob with warmer and extractor hood, Beko American style fridge freezer with water dispenser, sink and Rangemaster dishwasher. A glazed door leads through to the inner hallway with a staircase to the first floor, walk in understair cupboard and engineered oak flooring. Bedroom 1 also has engineered oak flooring as does bedroom 2 which also has two built in hanging wardrobes and an en suite shower room with shower cubicle, washbasin and WC. Bedroom 3/study has built in storage cupboards. A useful utility room has floor and wall units with tiled splashbacks, Hotpoint washing machine, Sensordry dryer, tiled floor and a door to the integral garage. A staircase with a wooden handrail leads to the first floor landing which has a hatch with an attic ladder to useful floored loft space. The spacious upstairs sitting room has views to the hills and an arch to a galleried landing. Bedroom 4 has fitted cupboards, while the master bedroom has a wall mounted Samsung TV, fitted hanging and shelved wardrobes, and a partially tiled en suite with a Jacuzzi bath, shower cubicle, washbasin and WC.
