Leisure and sporting facilities are available at the new community swimming pool and sports complex; rugby, football and hockey pitches at The Meadows Sports Complex; and golf at the McDonald Golf Club and Trump International which is a mere (6 miles away).

Ellonlee is a great opportunity to develop a fabulous home on the outskirts of Ellon. However, original features like crown moulding and fireplace mantels offer potential for restoration.

Outside:
The grounds of the property extend to about 2.5 acres. The acreage has been split into three small fields. The field in front of the property once contained sheep and is an ideal paddock for grazing. The property is surrounded by mature trees and bushes and there is a small pond on the western boundary. There are extensive mature gardens surrounding the house, a veggie patch and an old orchard with a variety of fruit trees.

There are various outbuildings within the grounds including one modern newly erected shed/garage which currently stores gardening equipment but has been made to fit a vehicle.

Development:
A pre-planning application has been submitted to the council for potential development of two or three properties on the site.
