Aberlour House, Category A listed country house in Aberlour, Scotland.

The north-facing frontage of Aberlour House features a porte-cochère supported by Doric columns and exhibits asymmetrical extensions creating varied facades.

Built in 1838 by architect William Robertson for Alexander Grant, a merchant returning from Jamaica, the house later served as headquarters for the 51st Scottish Division.

The interior displays a grand stair hall with an ionic cantilevered staircase, while the wood-paneled library contains marble fireplaces and religious artwork.

The property underwent extensive restoration between 2006 and 2010 under the ownership of Walkers Shortbread, following its previous use as a preparatory school.

A Tuscan column on the grounds supports a heraldic unicorn symbolizing the Findlay family, who acquired the property from Margaret Macpherson Grant.
