Extended Detached Family Home With Five Bedrooms And Detached Garage In Bonar Bridge

This is a substantial detached family home offering a large and flexible layout with a prime location in the village of Bonar Bridge. With five bedrooms, multiple reception spaces and a mix of original features and latter extensions, the house provides room for you and your family to grow and adapt over time. Its position within the village places local amenities close by, while the surrounding countryside adds to the sense of space and outlook.
The entrance porch sits to the front of the house and acts as a pleasant introduction. Timber double glazed windows wrap around the space, allowing light in from all sides, while Hardwood flooring and a small radiator make it a comfortable spot to pause, remove shoes or sit and enjoy the outlook.
From here, the main hallway leads into the heart of the house. Neutral painted walls and a light grey carpet keep the space calm and practical, with doors branching off to the principal ground floor rooms.
To the right of the hallway is the dining room, a welcoming space centred around an open fire set within a marble surround and wooden mantel. Three walls are painted a neutral white, while a feature wall carries a stone-effect design that echoes the age of the property. An alcove with shelving provides a natural place for books, photographs or personal display pieces. A window to the front brings in daylight. The size of the room means it can easily accommodate a full dining table and additional furniture.
A door at the rear of the dining room opens directly into the kitchen, creating an easy flow between the two spaces. Light grey kitchen cabinets are paired with wood effect worktops and matching splashbacks around the preparation areas. A built-in double oven sits within a tall run of units, with an induction hob positioned opposite beneath a modern extractor hood. A small breakfast bar adds a casual seating option, while a dark grey composite sink is positioned below a window looking out to the rear.
Off the kitchen, an inner hall links through to the utility room and ground floor WC. The utility space offers room for your laundry appliances while hardwood flooring lines the ground and a back door leads outside. There’s also a large storage cupboard with timber sliding doors adds valuable practicality.
The WC sits just off the utility area and is lined with light coloured wetwall panels, making it easy to maintain. A combined toilet and sink unit incorporates storage, with a frosted window providing light and privacy. Having this facility on the ground floor is particularly useful for daily life and visiting guests.
At the end of the inner hall, the sitting room opens into a generous, relaxed space designed for everyday living. A bold red, wood burning stove forms the focal point of the room, set against neutral walls with a feature wall papered in a thistle pattern to add interest. Light grey carpet runs underfoot, and glazed French doors open to the rear of the property, bringing in light and offering direct access outside. There’s plenty of space here for a full sofa suite, television unit and additional furnishings.
Back at the front of the house, bedroom one sits off the main hallway and offers the convenience of ground floor living. Cream painted walls and a built-in wardrobe with timber sliding doors create a comfortable room, with a deep windowsill and window to the front. An en-suite shower room adds further appeal, arranged as a walk-in space with wetwall panels, mobility aids, a white towel radiator and practical fittings.
Upstairs, the landing connects a wide range of rooms, reinforcing how adaptable this home can be.
The home’s second bedroom is a large double with white painted walls and two built-in wardrobes, both fitted with timber sliding doors. A pedestal sink sits neatly in one corner while a window frames views out across the surrounding countryside and rolling hills beyond.
Bedroom three is another spacious double room, also including a pedestal sink and built-in wardrobe. Neutral walls and a dormer window give the room a bright feel, with plenty of space for bedroom furniture.
Bedroom four is a smaller single room with neutral walls and playful animal print decor. A generous window brings in light, while a radiator on the internal wall keeps the room warm.
The home also enjoys a dedicated study, which provides a quieter space for home working, studying or reading. Neutral walls, a Velux style roof window and a radiator make this a practical and usable room rather than an afterthought.
The fifth bedroom is another large double room, featuring a striking red painted feature wall balanced by softer neutral tones elsewhere. A striped carpet adds character, while a built-in wardrobe with timber sliding doors and a wide window complete the space.
The bathroom serves the upper floor and stands out for its size and facilities. A separate bath and shower cubicle provide genuine choice, with the bath incorporating jacuzzi jets and the shower enclosed within a gold framed cubicle fitted with an electric shower. Wetwall panels line the walls, wood effect vinyl flooring runs underfoot and a chrome ladder towel radiator adds a practical finishing touch.
Outside, the property occupies a sloping, rectangular plot with grounds to both front and rear. The front garden is laid with paving stone, while the side and rear continues the tarmac with a parking area providing space for multiple vehicles. A single car garage sits here too, great for storing your vehicle, or for general household storage. Steps lead up to an elevated lawn and a block-paved patio, creating a pleasant area to sit out and enjoy the space. Up here there’s also a timber shed providing further storage. Boundaries are formed by timber fencing, rendered blockwork and stone walling.
Homes with this amount of space and versatility don’t come along often, particularly in such a wonderful village setting. With multiple living areas, five bedrooms and generous outdoor space, Rose Cottage invites you to imagine how it could work for your family, both now and in the future. A viewing is the best way to truly appreciate it, so contact Hamish Homes now to arrange your private appointment.
