Generous 1950s Detached Bungalow with Garage, Games Room, Conservatory and Generous Outdoor Space in Peaceful Auldearn Setting

Set within the charming village of Auldearn, just three miles from Nairn, Dalmuir is a generously proportioned detached bungalow offering a wealth of internal space, flexible living areas and excellent outdoor potential. Originally built in the 1950s and extended over the years, this home now offers three bedrooms, two reception rooms, a games room, conservatory and multiple useful outbuildings making it ideal for families or those seeking space to spread out.

A welcoming entrance vestibule, with timber-lined walls and tiled flooring, sets the tone. With windows on two sides and space for seating or storage, it’s a practical and pleasant first impression. From here, you step into a traditional kitchen with white cabinet doors, wood-style worktops, integrated oven and hob and a stainless steel sink. Two built-in storage cupboards provide larder-style convenience, while the room offers excellent scope for modernising to suit your personal style.

The living room is a spacious and light-filled retreat. A large bay window draws in natural light, while a solid fuel stove with tiled surround brings character and warmth. There’s ample space for comfortable seating and family gatherings. The home also benefits from a second lounge, slightly smaller but with a matching stove and tiled hearth, soft grey carpet underfoot and wallpapered walls.

Perhaps the most interesting addition is the games room! A fantastic social space lined with timber walls and currently housing a full-sized pool table. Large windows let in plenty of light, while soft carpet adds comfort underfoot. In the corner, a fitted bar area adds to the room’s appeal, making it ideal for entertaining, relaxing or enjoying as a dedicated hobby space.

This room opens into a large conservatory at the rear, where wraparound glazing and a pitched roof flood the space with light. It’s a versatile room with plenty of space for lounging or dining, ideal for enjoying the garden views year-round.

The home’s three bedrooms are all comfortable doubles. The main bedroom sits to the rear and enjoys garden outlooks, a neutral palette and its own private en suite complete with corner bath, separate shower cubicle, toilet, basin and radiator.

Bedroom two is a bright double room with wood laminate flooring, cream-painted walls, and a patterned feature wall that adds a touch of personality. Bedroom three, also a double, continues the soft, neutral tones with light-coloured carpet and a pleasant outlook through its window. It’s a calm and comfortable space, ideal for guests or family use.

Serving these rooms is the family bathroom, styled in a traditional palette with cream tiling. It includes a full-size bath with electric shower over, toilet, sink and a mirrored cabinet, all designed for practicality while maintaining a neat, clean finish.

Outside, the home sits on a generous plot with garden grounds on all sides. A large patio lies just outside the conservatory, a sunny spot for seating or alfresco dining, beyond which stretches a wide lawn, ideal for children or pets. Planting beds, mature shrubs and hedges bring seasonal colour, while the plot’s concrete paths and driveway enhance practicality. A number of useful outbuildings accompany the home, including a single car garage, a separate workshop, woodstore, mower shed, domed greenhouse and an open-sided store or carport.

Spacious, characterful and offering huge potential to update and personalise, Dalmuir is a rare opportunity to secure a substantial village home with excellent indoor and outdoor space in a well connected area. Get in touch with Hamish Homes today to arrange your private viewing.
