About the Home: "Bob Dylan, one of America’s greatest songwriters, rose to fame during the 1960s with such hits as ‘Blowin’ in the Wind’ and ‘The Times They Are A-Changin’.’ His songs captured the tumultuous spirit of the ’60s and became anthems for the anti-war and civil rights movements. Now 82, Dylan continues to tour, having recently wrapped up his European concert series. For the last 17 years, the prolific artist has owned a stately mansion known as Aultmore House in the Cairngorm National Park in Scotland. Unable to visit the home since the Covid-19 pandemic, Dylan has listed the property for sale, accepting offers in excess of £3,000,000. Approached via a private, tree-lined driveway, the 18,357-square-foot mansion includes 16 bedrooms, each with lovely garden views, and 11 bathrooms. Multiple entertainment areas include a lounge, sunroom, and garden room. Three kitchens, plus a basement that includes storage, a workshop, and a coal cellar complete the home. The estate has been recognized for both its historic and architectural importance."


Set on 25 acres of well-manicured grounds, all within Cairngorm National Park, the 1914 estate is encapsulated by mature forest and picturesque mountain views.
