Detached Three-Bedroom Village Bungalow With Garage, Gardens And Stunning Countryside Views

Set on a quiet residential street in the Highland village of Munlochy, this detached bungalow offers a practical and inviting layout with countryside views and fabulous outdoor space.

From the street, the house sits back slightly behind a low wall, with a small lawned garden bordered by shrubs and mature hedging. This front garden enjoys open views across nearby fields towards the Moray Firth in the distance. A driveway runs along the side of the property to a detached single garage, offering off-street parking and useful storage. At the rear, there’s a tidy enclosed garden with a patio, a raised sloping lawn and a timber shed – a practical space for outdoor storage.

Inside, the home opens into a vestibule and hallway that lead through to a generously sized living room. This space is bright and welcoming, with a wide bank of front-facing windows offering far-reaching views. An artificial fire sits within a greystone surround, creating a central focal point. The room is finished with soft grey carpets and dark wood detailing along the skirtings, door frames and internal door. A traditional serving hatch adds character, connecting through to the kitchen behind.

The kitchen itself is fitted with wood cabinets and grey speckled worktops, complemented by white tile splashbacks and a stainless-steel sink. A built-in oven, hob and extractor are already in place, with further space for a dishwasher. Just off the kitchen, a separate utility room adds extra worktop space and floor cabinets in a matching finish. The boiler is housed here and a rear door opens out to the garden patio.

There are three double bedrooms, each offering its own practical layout and finish. The main bedroom is a generous double with a built-in storage cupboard, white-painted walls and a soft, neutral carpet underfoot. A large window lets in good natural light, with a radiator positioned beneath.

The second bedroom is also a double, finished in calming neutral tones. It features a fitted carpet, a wide window with open outlook and a radiator below. The third bedroom has a slightly different character, with a soft blue carpet adding a subtle splash of colour. It also benefits from a built-in storage cupboard and the same simple, neutral wall finish as the others.

The shower room is practical and neatly finished in clean, neutral tones. A square shower cubicle sits to one side, fitted with a handrail for added safety and ease of use. Along the opposite wall, a floating vanity unit houses the sink, offering built-in storage beneath for everyday essentials. A frosted window and radiator complete the space.

Above, the attic has been fully floored and fitted with lighting and power, providing a sizeable area for storage or hobby use, accessed via a fold down ladder in the hall. Throughout the home, double glazing is in place, with uPVC frames to the front and aluminium to the rear. Heating is delivered via an oil-fired system, supplemented by an electric immersion heater in the hot water tank.
