Property round-up — great places to buy for getting around

On its website, GoNorthEast says travel time between Peterculter and Bridge of Don, for example, is almost halved to 26 minutes, while Stonehaven to Dyce now takes around half an hour, down 56%.

This means homebuyers are likely to look for their next property in areas they’d perhaps previously discounted, perhaps because the commute was too long, or it wasn’t close enough to friends, family or the amenities they wanted to use.

So we’ve pulled together a handful of properties in some of the areas with easy access to the new A90 route, and if you don’t see something you fancy here, why not take a look at our residential property page.
