Charming Two-Bedroom Converted Steading With Galley Kitchen, Spacious Lounge And Private Stone-Built Garage Near Inverness City Centre

This converted steading combines traditional charm with modern living, set just off Culduthel Road in a well established residential area near Inverness city centre. Originally built around 1823 and converted in 2003, the property offers a comfortable layout across two floors with period details, a private front garden and a detached stone-built garage directly opposite. This is an appealing home in a highly convenient location.

At the entrance, a beautiful stone-built porch with pitched slate roof sets the tone for the home. Step inside and you’re welcomed into a small hallway with white walls and a timber staircase running off to the left. A standout feature here is the deep-set cottage window that’s currently dressed with cushions to create a peaceful window seat overlooking the garden.

The living room is spacious and full of natural light, with large windows to the front and smaller cottage style windows to the side and rear, both finished with traditional deep sills that add character and charm. Cream walls and wooden flooring bring a calm, neutral tone to the room, while the generous proportions allow space for a sofa set, dining table, bookcase and more. Radiators are fitted at either end to ensure warmth and comfort year-round.
Leading from the living room, the galley kitchen makes smart use of space and storage. It’s fitted with light-toned wall and base units with chrome handles, and grey marble-effect worktops. Appliances include an integrated dishwasher and fridge freezer, electric hob and built-in oven at eye-level, while a stainless steel sink with draining board sits beneath the rear-facing window. There’s also plumbing and space for a washing machine.
Completing the ground floor is a convenient WC compartment, tucked neatly away for guest use. A turning staircase with a green tartan-style carpet and wooden handrail curves gently up to the first floor, where the same carpet continues across the landing, lending a soft, traditional feel throughout.

The main bedroom is a peaceful double room with soft green carpeting and white walls. A dormer window adds natural light while the rooms dimensions allow space for a double bed and side tables. A built-in cupboard offers useful storage and you’ll find a radiator is placed near the door.
The second bedroom, slightly smaller, is also suitable for a double bed. It features the same gentle green carpet and white walls, with a Velux-style rooflight window adding charm and brightness. A radiator near the door ensures warmth in cooler months.
Serving the upstairs rooms is a stylish shower room. The large shower enclosure features a mains-fed rainfall shower, with sparkly white wetwall panelling inside and around the lower walls elsewhere. Above this is a soft mint green paint finish, keeping things fresh and calming. The white vanity unit cleverly combines the toilet and sink, with integrated cupboard storage and ample counter space. A heated white ladder towel rail and Velux window complete the room.

Outside, the garden area at the front is attractively presented with a blend of gravel, cobbles and mono block paving. A colourful mix of shrubs, small trees and flowering plants bring a welcome splash of life and privacy to the entrance.

Just across from the home is a stone-built single garage with a pitched slate roof and double timber doors. Measuring around 15 square metres inside, it’s ideal for use as a garage, hobby space or workshop.

This is a delightful home with a rich sense of history, conveniently placed for Inverness city life while offering a quiet residential setting.
