Rosemount is an impressive detached period dwelling in the heart of the coastal town of Buckie. This substantial property has spacious and adaptable accommodation over three floors and is in an elevated position with fine views over the Moray Firth and Buckie Harbour.
The Victorian property was built in 1890 and has been a seaman's mission, a doctor's surgery and for the last 20 years it has been run as a successful 4 star B&B. The house retains many original features including pitch pine panelled doors, a beautiful staircase with decoratively carved spindles, cornicing and the servants bells which are in working order.
The house is built of dressed sandstone under a pitched slate roof. The gravel front garden is bound by a stone wall and railings.
The vestibule opens up into a large hall with a sweeping pitch pine staircase. The hall has the original Victorian tiles on the floor which are currently over laid with carpet.
The principal rooms at the front of the property on the ground floor and currently used as a bedroom and a dining room. The dining room has a stripped floor and a bay window.
The entrance hall leads to the rear hall at the back of the property which allows access to another bedroom, an office and a sitting room. The back door and adjacent cloakroom are also accessed from the rear hall. The sitting room leads to the dining kitchen which has a range of fitted units and 3 generous pantry cupboards. There is a generous laundry off the kitchen with a pine floor and a Belfast sink.
Ascending the main staircase, the staircase splits and leads to a mezzanine level with a cloakroom and a separate bathroom. From the first floor landing pitch pine doors lead to 3 bedrooms, 2 of which have ensuite shower rooms and the drawing room. The drawing room has a wonderful bay window through which sea views can be enjoyed. A wood burning stove in the fireplace is a fine focal point of the room. A door leads from the drawing room to a very useful store room that houses the water tanks. There is ample storage space in the walk in laundry cupboard also on this floor.
The grand main staircase continues to the second floor where there are four further bedrooms and a modern shower room.
