Detached bungalow for sale in School Brae, Inverness IV2

Constructed in 2007 and with an interior space of 140 m2, this is an exceptionally well-maintained property that also benefits from a beautiful location in a commuter village.

Accessed via a large area lawn and extensive blockwork driveway, the front garden is suitable for several vehicles and has the advantage of a double garage. The view from here is north across agricultural land to the Moray Firth and Black Isle. Solar panels are fitted to the south-facing roof area at the rear of the property.

Entering via a smart pale blue-painted hallway with its polished wooden floor and white joinery, gives access to the elegant living room. This room has a north-facing view of the front garden and is finished in grey with attractive hard flooring. A contemporary black cast iron wood burning stove with an exposed flue gives the room a stylish focal point.

Fitted with immaculate dark wood cabinetry with an attractive grain, the kitchen is a striking, high-end space offering considerable space. Arranged on three walls and finished with a crisp polished stone worktop and breakfast bar, the kitchen features many quality details, including steel tambour doors on wall cabinets to complete its high-end contemporary feel. Small earth-coloured wall tiles in the splash areas beautifully complement the simpler white floor tiles.

Attached to the kitchen is a pristine sunroom with space for a dining table and comfortable seating. Finished in white with plentiful downlighting, this space is a stylish retreat whatever the time of day. Glazed doors give access to the patio.

6 School Brae has four substantial bedrooms. The first is decorated in grey and white and has a view of the garden. It also has two large built-in wardrobes. The ensuite shower room is finished with elegant dark grey and white tiles, white sanitary ware, and a walk-in shower.

The second bedroom is decorated in blue and has a built-in wardrobe; given its proximity to the entrance, it offers a good space as a guest room or as a home office, which is its current use.

The two remaining bedrooms are decorated in a very soft grey. Each is generously sized and has plenty of natural light.

The family bathroom features the same dark grey and white tiles as the en-suite and has a bath with a shower over it, a WC, and a wall-mounted wash basin.

Patio doors to the garden open onto an expansive paved seating area with utility space and a small timber shed to one side; steps lead to a lawn with raised beds and a small summer house. A log store is at the side of the property. Enclosed with timber fencing, the garden is simply designed but elegant, reflecting the aesthetic of the property as a whole.

This is a stunning and extremely well-maintained property. Its fabulous rural location in a desirable area, offset by its proximity to the airport, Inverness, and Nairn, make it not just a lovely family home, but also a perfect place from which to commute. Early viewing is recommended.
