Spacious Ground Floor Period Home With Tall Ceilings And Rear Garden Near Inverness Centre

From the street, 6 Perceval Road has the unmistakable character of a traditional Inverness stone property, its solid sandstone frontage and tall sash style windows giving it the presence you’d expect from a home dating back around 120 years. This ground floor flat sits within a semi-detached block of similar period buildings, only a short walk from the city centre, making it an easy place to settle if you want the charm of older construction without losing the convenience of central living.

Inside, a small hallway links the bedroom, bathroom and living room, with the kitchen reached through a further door off the living room.

The bedroom is a generous, bright space with crisp white painted walls and a tall ceiling that gives it an airy feel. A large white uPVC window stretches along one wall with a view out to the front, and has a radiator neatly positioned just below for warmth. The flooring is a light wood laminate while the simple lines of the skirting, door frame and coving finish the room with a classic touch.

The bathroom is arranged around a full length bath with a shower fitted above it and a folding glass screen to one side. The tiling around the bath combines light coloured upper tiles with a band of soft green below, giving the room a gentle, traditional look. A pedestal basin and toilet alongside sit beneath a large frosted window that brings in plenty of daylight while keeping the space private. The floor is laid with light coloured tiles and there’s a radiator near the door to keep the room warm.

The living room feels instantly inviting, helped by the tall ceiling that lifts the space. The large front window draws in natural light throughout the day while the room’s size and shape makes it straightforward to picture how your own furniture would sit. The timber fireplace surround adds a touch of character without overpowering the room, while the natural wood doors and skirtings keep a sense of warmth running through the space. A glazed door opens through to the kitchen, giving a smooth connection between the two rooms and keeping the flat feeling open and welcoming.

The kitchen is arranged in a long galley layout, with light timber fronted wall and base units running along both sides to make the most of the space. Dark worktops give a smart contrast while above the sink and hob the deep blue tiled splashbacks brings a bold touch of colour. There’s a stainless steel gas hob with a built in oven below and extractor above. At the far end, a frosted glazed door leads directly outside.

Stepping out from the kitchen, the shared rear garden gives you a practical, low maintenance outdoor space. A wide paved area sits directly outside the door, offering plenty of room for seating, container plants or simply an easy spot to dry laundry. Beyond this, gravel and a small section of planting run along the edge, with boundary walls and fencing giving the garden a sheltered, enclosed feel. A timber shed with a felt roof stands at the back, providing useful storage for tools and outdoor equipment.
