Sunlight streams through the wide windows of the lounge, making it feel instantly relaxing. It’s framed by a striking feature wall where a white mantel and dark slate surround set off the electric stove beautifully. The bold wallpaper design lends character without overwhelming the calm palette, while glazed patio doors draw the eye toward the garden beyond. The size of the room allows you to arrange your furniture to suit your needs and taste.
The first of the home’s five bedrooms is conveniently located on the ground floor, providing flexibility for guests or those who struggle with stairs. Light blue wall tones and plentiful natural light create a calm and refreshing atmosphere. There’s room for a king size bed alongside drawers and a dressing area, with thoughtful built-in storage completing the picture. The adjoining en-suite features a walk in shower enclosure with rainfall head, a modern pedestal basin and matching toilet. Chrome fittings lend a contemporary feel, while a heated towel rail and side window ensure both warmth and light.
Completing the ground floor is a neatly presented WC, conveniently positioned off the hallway. Finished in soft neutral colours it includes a modern white suite comprising a wash basin and toilet. A patterned splashback adds a touch of character, while the window ensures good natural light and ventilation.
A polished timber staircase leads to the upper floor, where the landing opens out into a bright, generous area that feels almost like an additional room in its own right.
At the top of the stairs, the family room immediately draws the eye. It’s a beautifully light room with a calm, contemporary feel. Framed by glass panels that overlook the landing, it becomes a natural gathering spot on this level. A solid fuel stove provides the room with warmth and character, complemented by timber flooring and soft, neutral decor. Sliding patio doors extend the room out onto a broad balcony, where the view stretches across open countryside towards the hills beyond, a serene outlook that’s hard to resist.
Along the landing, the home’s second bedroom is inviting, finished in soft neutral shades that enhance the natural light from its large window. There’s room for freestanding furniture, and the subtle angles of the roofline add character. The adjoining en-suite is fitted with a modern suite comprising a glazed shower cubicle, pedestal basin and toilet, all neatly arranged against light coloured walls that create a fresh, clean appearance.
The third bedroom is another double room which benefits from neatly fitted cupboards that provide useful storage. Tasteful neutral decor and clean lines make this a versatile room, with space for additional furniture. A radiator fixed below the window helps to keep the room warm year round.
The fourth bedroom has twin roof windows set into the sloping ceiling that draws daylight deep into the room. Painted in a soft grey, the walls contrast gently with the warm timber skirtings and light carpet underfoot. Currently arranged as a craft room, it’s an ideal setting for creative work, study or quiet reading, while still comfortably accommodating a single bed or compact double if required.
The fifth bedroom is cheerful, its cream walls paired with a soft grey carpet, give it a warm feel. Built-in wardrobes in blue and beech tones offer storage, while matching timber skirtings and door frames tie the look together.
The family bathroom centres around a deep freestanding bath with sleek chrome fittings, set against textured wall panels. Opposite, a large walk in shower with a fixed glass screen and rainfall head adds a luxurious, contemporary touch. The hand basin and toilet are positioned neatly to maximise floor space, and a tall white towel radiator provides warmth. Light grey flooring ties it all together, giving the room a modern stylish feel.
The home is fitted with double glazed timber casement windows throughout, with matching timber patio doors from the family room and uPVC French doors leading from the kitchen. External doors are timber with double glazed sections, complementing the property’s style and finish. Heating and hot water are provided by a Grant oil-fired central heating boiler situated in the external utility room, connected to steel panel radiators throughout. Smoke detectors are fitted throughout the home, with a heat detector in the kitchen and both carbon monoxide and smoke detectors located in the family room and external utility room for added safety.
As well as the main house, a thoughtfully designed annexe also offers independent living space that’s ideal for extended family, guests or perhaps as an income generating option.
The annexe has a contemporary open plan layout that combines the lounge and kitchen together. The kitchen features modern gloss units with integrated oven, ceramic hob and extractor, complemented by neutral worktops and matching splashbacks. There’s space for a washing machine, dishwasher and undercounter fridge. The dining area fits neatly beside the preparation space, creating a sociable setting for meals. Beyond this, the lounge offers a comfortable seating area with laminate flooring, soft grey walls and a window overlooking the garden. Together, it forms a smart, self contained living area that feels modern and inviting.
A doorway leads through to the annexe bedroom, a bright and comfortable double with light grey walls. The layout easily accommodates a double bed, bedside cabinets and a wardrobe. The adjoining en-suite is fitted with a modern white suite, including a basin, toilet and shower enclosure. Wetwall panels line the bottom half of the room with the soft grey painted upper walls. A white towel radiator completes the clean, contemporary look.
The property enjoys enclosed garden ground surrounding the house, mainly laid to lawn with neatly defined boundaries of stone, block and timber fencing. A broad area of timber decking sits to the rear, providing an ideal spot for outdoor seating and container planting. Within the rear garden stands a timber built garden office that provides a versatile space for home working or hobbies. Finished internally in natural timber, it has power and lighting, creating a comfortable year round environment. Beside this is a separate timber shed which is a great storage spot for gardening tools, outdoor equipment and seasonal items, keeping the main garden area clear and well organised. To the rear of the garage, an external utility room provides additional household convenience, fitted with cabinets, a worktop and sink, along with plumbing for laundry appliances and practical shelving for storage.
This impressive property combines space and modern comfort in the main home and its self contained annexe. With elegant interiors and additional outbuildings, it offers everything a growing family could need. Its location brings together the tranquillity of village life and the convenience of being within easy reach of Inverness.
