We've launched a fabulous new showhome in Banchory!

5th May, 2023

We’re so excited to have officially opened the doors to our brand new luxury showhome at Inchmarlo, Banchory - the executive 5 bedroom detached ‘Gullane’!

Boasting a vast 297m² of internal floor space and an array of desirable features throughout, this superb showhome is one of our largest to date, and has been styled to perfection by Thomas Fischer Interiors to showcase the superior standard of finish and exceedingly spacious layout on offer.

Here’s everything you need to know about this fabulous addition to our portfolio of Kirkwood showhomes…

Where is the showhome located?

‘The Gullane’ showhome can be found at our prestigious Inchmarlo development, located on the fringe of the thriving Deeside town of Banchory.

This development enjoys a highly sought-after location, being within walking distance to the many amenities in the town of Banchory and offers a desirable setting within the very heart of Royal Deeside. With vast forests, mountain peaks and the meandering River Dee, this beautiful part of Aberdeenshire enjoys stunning scenery and endless opportunities to explore the great outdoors.

What features can I expect to find inside the showhome?

As you step through the front door of ‘The Gullane’, you are instantly struck by the sheer size and grandeur of this executive home. Through the welcoming vestibule and hallway you’ll find a spacious triple-aspect formal lounge with a beautiful bay window to the front and striking French doors to the rear garden, flooding this space with natural light.

Across the hall is a generously sized dining space which leads directly to the vast kitchen and family area. This extensive open-plan space is undoubtedly the heart of the home, the kitchen equipped with quality German units, stone worktops, a stylish breakfast bar, an array of high-spec integrated appliances and French doors leading to the rear garden. You’ll also find a practical utility room which includes a large storage cupboard or pantry and further outdoor access. A useful study, WC, additional storage and double integral garage complete the ground floor.

Heading up the winding staircase you’ll find 5 generously sized bedrooms, each benefitting from built-in wardrobes. Bedrooms 1 and 2 enjoy the added luxury of sumptuous en-suites, with the master also hosting a separate bath and shower enclosure in the en-suite, plus a desirable walk-in-wardrobe in addition to 2 further double wardrobes for maximum storage space. A well-appointed family bathroom with separate shower, 2 additional storage cupboards and a linen store complete the first floor of this exceptional home.

Who is this housetype best suited to?

‘The Gullane’ is an ideal choice for those who are searching for a grand and versatile home where space to grow is of the highest importance. It’s best suited for families with growing children who desire a spacious layout for enjoying everyday life, hosting family get-togethers or entertaining guests.

Shirley Craig, Kirkwood's Sales Manager, commented on the impressive size and quality inside this magnificent housetype:

“‘The Gullane’ showhome in Banchory really is a showstopper! With 297m² of floor space it’s one of our grandest housetypes across the entire Kirkwood portfolio - and perfect for those who require a spacious home, without compromising on quality. The internal layout and versatile design of this fantastic home affords so many options for modern- day living, while the development’s location at Inchmarlo, Banchory truly offers a beautiful setting to call home!”

What is the interior design of the showhome like?

Working on their fifth Kirkwood showhome this year, Thomas Fischer Interiors brought their creative flair once again to bring another stunning showhome to life, with styling that impeccably showcases ‘The Gullane’s exceptional features.

When developing the design concept for the showhome, one of the lead designers, Ollie said; “We followed our usual process and looked at the local area for inspiration. The site is within a beautiful forest area in Royal Deeside, so we've incorporated forest greens in the colour palette and then introduced a touch of claret with a Scottish, country feel throughout, so it's quite traditional but reinterpreted in a contemporary way.”

One of the most striking features of ‘The Gullane’ is its vast kitchen, dining and family area, and was a crucial space to consider when designing the showhome. Ollie said; “This is definitely the space that you can really live in - it’s so big! We've styled it with a large corner sofa to create a cosy family area, and then we've added a huge bespoke 12 seater dining table in the main section of the room. This space is definitely the hub of the home where everybody can come together every day or for big family gatherings.”

How can I arrange a viewing of the showhome?

You can visit this brand new showhome at Inchmarlo from Saturday 6th May. Our friendly Sales Advisor, Michelle, is available for appointments to show you around and answer any questions you have about buying your new Kirkwood home!

Although the showhome is located within Banchory, ‘The Gullane’ is also available to reserve at our Forgan Grange development in Drumoig, Fife. A visit to our beautiful showhome allows you to appreciate the size and quality this housetype has to offer, no matter where you choose to call home.
