We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
An exceptional Category B Listed Georgian townhouse offering a rare opportunity to sensitively restore and reimagine one of Aberdeen’s finest Georgian townhouses in the heart of the City.
Stewart Balfour & Sutherland are delighted to bring to the market 4 Bon Accord Crescent, an elegant Category B Listed Georgian townhouse forming part of the beautiful Bon Accord Crescent, originally designed by the renowned architect Robert Simpson in 1826.
Occupying a peaceful position overlooking the attractive tree-lined park to the front, the property enjoys a tranquil setting whilst remaining only a short stroll from Union Street and Aberdeen city centre.
Extending to approximately 370 square metres over four substantial floors, this impressive building presents a rare opportunity to acquire a property of exceptional scale and character, offering purchasers the chance to sensitively restore and reimagine one of Aberdeen’s finest Georgian townhouses.
The generous proportions, impressive ceiling heights and elegant Georgian architecture provide the perfect canvas for the creation of a magnificent family home.
The accommodation is entered through an impressive entrance vestibule leading into a welcoming reception hall, immediately reflecting the scale and elegance associated with Aberdeen’s finest Georgian homes.
The principal floors offer outstanding flexibility, allowing purchasers to create elegant reception rooms, an impressive dining kitchen, generous bedroom accommodation and versatile family living space, whilst preserving the property’s period character and architectural integrity.
The basement provides a substantial amount of additional accommodation and benefits from its own separate external access.
This versatile floor offers a variety of potential uses, including additional living accommodation, a home office, studio, gymnasium or hobby space, subject to any necessary consents.
To the rear of the property is a small enclosed courtyard garden, providing an easily maintained outdoor space.
The property previously benefited from planning permission for conversion into two residential duplex apartments, comprising a basement and ground floor duplex, together with a first and second floor duplex.
Although this planning permission has now lapsed, it demonstrates that the principle of residential conversion has previously been accepted for the building, which may provide encouragement for future proposals, subject to obtaining the necessary planning permission, Listed Building Consent and Building Warrant approvals.
Whether restored as a distinguished Georgian family home or sympathetically redeveloped to suit an individual purchaser’s vision, 4 Bon Accord Crescent represents a truly rare opportunity to acquire one of Aberdeen’s most attractive period properties, combining historic architectural elegance with exceptional potential in one of the city’s most desirable Georgian crescents.
Due to the nature of the scope of works this property will not fall within typical residential lenders criteria until refurbished so specialist financing will be required.
