Charming 3-Bedroom Village Home On The Shores of Loch Ness

Set just above the eastern shore of Loch Ness, 3 Riverside is a traditional 2 storey home offering space, character and a flexible layout across three levels. This offers all the charm of Highland village life while still being just a short drive from Inverness.

Painted white with distinctive pale blue window sills, the property sits behind a loc-bloc pathway and is framed by lawns and a boundary of timber fencing. A slate-roofed entrance porch opens into the hallway, where the ground floor rooms lead from.

The sitting room is a warm and welcoming space, painted in a soft mint green with complementing carpet. Two large front-facing windows bring in plenty of light and offer a Mountain View, with a radiator beneath for comfort. The focal point of the room is a stone fireplace and hearth, complete with a dark wood surround and open fire, perfect for cosy evenings. A dark ceiling beam adds warmth and character overhead, while an alcove beside the chimney breast features built-in shelving, offering a practical spot for books, ornaments or displaying precious photos.

The kitchen is fitted with light blue wooden cabinets offering plenty of storage, alongside white worktops and a stainless steel sink beneath a window to the rear. There’s space for a freestanding washing machine while integrated appliances include a built-in oven and hob. Tiled flooring keeps the space easy to maintain and neutral white walls keep the room feeling fresh and bright.
An open archway connects the kitchen to the dining room, creating an open plan flow that’s ideal for modern living. The tiled floor continues through and the soft yellow walls and large window make this a light, sociable space. There’s ample room for a dining table and chairs, along with additional storage or display furniture. It’s currently used as a flexible family hub, with a large dresser.
Upstairs, the first floor landing is reached via a beautiful white-painted wooden staircase with a tartan-patterned carpet runner, and leads to three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The largest bedroom is a good-size double with a slim window, soft brown carpet and a mix of pink and grey painted walls. It’s a generous room with space for all your furniture, such as freestanding wardrobes, drawers or a dressing area.
A second double bedroom features a sloped ceiling, white walls with a splash of pale blue and soft carpet underfoot. A window and radiator make this a bright and functional space with plenty of potential. The third bedroom is also a double and is currently used as a therapy room, with soft cream walls, laminate wood-effect flooring and a long rectangular layout that gives you flexibility with furniture arrangement, perfect as a child’s room, study or guest space.
The family bathroom is well presented, with white painted walls and white tile-style wetwall surrounding the bath and shower area. A Mira electric shower and screen are fitted above the bath, which sits within a wooden surround. A toilet, wash hand basin and radiator complete the space, while grey vinyl flooring in a wood style adds a modern touch.
The attic level, accessed via a fold-down ladder, reveals a fully floored and finished room with soft carpet, plastered walls and a Velux-style window. Though classed as ancillary storage, this is a bright, comfortable space that would also work well as a hobby room or occasional home office.
Outside, the property is set within a rectangular plot, with space to the front, side and rear. The garden also has a selection of fruit trees and bushes. A timber-framed wood shed and store sit to the back, offering useful additional space for tools, firewood or garden equipment. The setting is private yet part of a well-established residential area, with access to riverside walks just moments away. At the end of the road is the bus stop on the Inverness route for easy commuting and links to the secondary school.
Heating is provided by an LPG gas-fired Worcester boiler, with water-filled radiators throughout. The windows and doors have been upgraded to modern PVC double glazing and battery-operated smoke alarms are installed in the main rooms and landings.
Whether you’re looking for a peaceful family home, a base near Loch Ness or simply a well-maintained property with scope to make your own, 3 Riverside is well worth viewing. Contact Hamish Homes today to arrange your visit and explore all that this character-filled home has to offer.
The current owners also utilised the property as an airBnB which acts as an addiction source of income.
