The Property
The property is entered from the front into a covered porch where a double glazed door leads to the hallway. The hallway gives access to the sitting room, kitchen, dining room and family bathroom and has an access hatch to the loft space with pull down ladder. The bright kitchen is located to the rear with double glazed door to the rear garden and garage. Good range of floor and wall mounted units with ample work surface space and tiling to splashback areas. Well equipped with washing machine, dishwasher, under counter fridge and freezer, integrated microwave, integrated single electric oven and four burner electric hob - all included in the sale. Ceiling spotlights, Karndean flooring and neutral décor complete the space. From here a door leads to the dining room or fourth bedroom, which can also be accessed from the hallway. Double glazed window to the side, carpet flooring, central heating radiator and ceiling light. Also on the ground floor is the family bathroom that consists of WC, wash hand basin and bath with electric shower above and shower boarding to the bathing area. Double glazed window, vinyl flooring, central heating radiator and ceiling spotlights.
A spacious and bright sitting room is located to the front with large double glazed windows overlooking the beautiful front garden, allowing lots of natural light through. The main focal point of the room is the open grate fire set in a Fyfe stone fireplace with slate hearth. A back boiler is still in use (along with the oil boiler) and a cupboard houses the cylinder. Laminate flooring, central heating radiator and ceiling light finish the space. From here a door leads through to a rear hallway where there is access to all three bedrooms. Two double rooms are located on the ground floor, both with double glazed windows, neutral décor and carpet flooring and a third dormer bedroom is accessed via carpeted stairs to the first floor.
There is excellent potential to incorporate the Bothy into the main house, creating a spacious principal bedroom suite with direct access from one of the existing bedrooms, together with an ensuite shower room and dressing room. The Bothy is accessed from the front of the property via a covered porch and a double glazed door. It currently requires renovation, although pipework is already in place for the proposed shower room. There is also access to a mezzanine level of an equivalent footprint, reached via a pull down Ramsay ladder.
