Description
Hedderwick House is an outstanding modern country house, dating from about 2016. It is situated on the site of the former Hedderwick Castle, also known as Old Hedderwick, which dates from the 17th century. Part of an original wall is on the edge of the garden in front of the house. It is a most attractive property, facing south, over its own gardens and grounds, and open agricultural land beyond. It is light, spacious and well laid out, making the most of its position, and is fully triple glazed. A particular feature is the spectacular open plan kitchen/living/dining room, which is very much the focal part of the house. There are two further reception rooms and an en suite bedroom downstairs, with four further bedrooms upstairs, with one en suite and two with an interlinking shower room. Mains of Hedderwick is a small grouping of modern properties. Hedderwick House is on the southern edge of this, so benefits from extensive grounds and uninterrupted views.
Gates open onto gravelled parking. An entrance vestibule leads into a welcoming hallway which has a wooden floor, a staircase to the first floor and two walk in cupboards. The fine double aspect sitting room has French doors to a patio and a wood burning stove. The dining room is presently used as a study, while a downstairs WC has a wash basin and wooden floor. The useful downstairs bedroom has fitted wardrobes and an en suite with shower, wash basin and WC. The fabulous open plan living/dining/kitchen is mostly double height, with wooden flooring, French doors to the patio and a wood burning stove. The kitchen has fitted units with wooden work tops, two Bosch ovens, AEG microwave, sink, Bosch dishwasher, an island unit with prep sink and Belling halogen hob, together with a Beko fridge freezer. The utility room has units with wooden worktops, sink, Hotpoint washing machine, Candy dryer, timber flooring and a walk in shelved cupboard. An integral garage with power and light has a Worcester oil fired boiler, auto roller door and a floored loft.
Off the landing is bedroom 2 with a fitted wardrobe. The principal bedroom has fitted and walk in wardrobes and an en suite with a spa bath, shower, wash basin and WC. The family bathroom has a washbasin and WC, while bedrooms 4 and 5 have an interlinking shower room with wash basin, WC and shelved cupboard.
There is a delightful paved patio in front of the house and useful outbuildings comprising an insulated office/studio with power and heating which was added in 2022; a bike shed/workshop and a garden tractor shed, both with concrete floor; and a wooden lean-to log shed. A gravelled seating area has raised beds and a greenhouse. Beyond is a fenced vegetable garden and a wooden shed.
The extensive grounds are mainly grassed, with considerable potential for a paddock if desired. There are shrub borders, fruit trees including pear, plum, damson, apple, crab apple and cherry, together with a former pond and a wooded area.

Location
Hedderwick House is situated at Mains of Hedderwick, on the edge of the village of Hillside, which is a quiet and desirable residential area, but with quick and easy access to Montrose. Mains of Hedderwick is separated from the rest of the village by a former railway line. The village itself is slightly to the north of Montrose Basin. Montrose, an historic port, is located on the coast between Dundee and Aberdeen. The Basin is a land locked tidal estuary at the mouth of the River South Esk, and is a renowned nature reserve and wildlife centre. Home to a fascinating variety of wildlife, including large numbers of migrating duck and geese, it is famed for its spectacular sunsets and ever-changing tidal flows. Beyond the Basin, the surrounding countryside is mainly rolling farmland, while inland are the Angus Glens. The coastline around Montrose comprises sandy bays and red sandstone cliffs. As well as Montrose, there are renowned beaches at St Cyrus and Lunan Bay. Locally, Hillside has a village shop, primary school and nursery. Montrose offers both primary and secondary schooling, a wide range of shopping, and leisure facilities at the new sports centre and swimming pool. Independent schools in the local area include Lathallan (Johnshaven) and the High School of Dundee and those in Aberdeen, with pupils catching trains from Montrose to either Aberdeen or Dundee. Golf courses in the area include Montrose, Edzell and the championship course at Carnoustie. Fishing can be taken on the nearby North and South Esk rivers, while sea fishing is also available locally. The A92 coast road runs from Stonehaven to Dundee via Montrose and Arbroath, while inland the A90 dual carriageway runs north from Dundee to Aberdeen. The A90 is easily reached at Northwaterbridge and the cities of Aberdeen and Dundee are readily accessible and provide all the services expected of major centres. Journey times to Aberdeen and its airport have been much reduced by the Western Peripheral Route. Montrose is served by the East Coast railway line with regular services to Aberdeen and to the south, including a sleeper service to London. Aberdeen Airport has a range of domestic and European services and there are flights from Dundee to Heathrow.
