Spacious Modern Detached Rural Family Home With Four Bedrooms, Double Garage And Generous Living Space Near Invergordon

Oakland House sits in a peaceful rural setting just outside Invergordon, offering the best of both worlds with open countryside around you and the town’s amenities only a short drive away. Built around ten years ago, the house has a modern feel and offers the space and layout to suit family living, with gardens wrapping around the property and a generous driveway leading up to the double garage.

You step into the home through the lobby and into the main hallway, where the sense of space becomes clear straight away. From here, the ground floor rooms branch off comfortably.

The lounge is a bright, welcoming room finished with white painted walls and quality wooden flooring underfoot. Tall windows alongside glazed doors that open directly to the garden, give the room a lovely view over the surrounding area. A standout feature here is the double sided wood burning stove, positioned between the lounge and the dining area so it can be enjoyed from both spaces, creating a natural focal point without dominating the room.

The open plan kitchen and dining room sits next to the lounge, sharing the same wooden flooring for a seamless flow. The dining area has plenty of space for a table and chairs, with glazed patio doors opening out to the garden on the same side as the lounge. The adjoining kitchen is fitted with cream cabinets and dark worktops, with a built-in double oven housed in a tall run of units and an induction hob set into the worktop. A stainless steel sink sits beneath a window. This kitchen is a modern design and will be a joy to use for those who enjoy creating culinary delights.

Just off the kitchen, the utility room features cabinets that match those in the kitchen and provides space and plumbing below the counter for laundry appliances, along with an additional sink. Close by, a ground floor shower room adds everyday convenience, fitted with a walk-in enclosure lined with dark grey wetwall panelling, alongside a toilet and wash basin.

Further along the hallway, the home benefits from a generous ground floor en-suite bedroom, offering a flexible option that works for guests or those with mobility issues. The room is finished in neutral tones and includes a large built-in wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors. The en-suite shower room is fitted with a corner cubicle, a sink and toilet, while a frosted window brings in light while maintaining privacy.

At the same end of the hall you’ll find the main family bathroom. This is a large room with white bath that runs along one wall. It has a fixed shower screen on the side and shower above for flexibility. A substantial glossy dark grey vanity unit runs along one wall with a marble-effect worktop, incorporating both a modern shaped basin and the toilet, along with useful storage. White tiled flooring pairs with neutral painted walls with a large mirror and frosted window completing the room.

The staircase turns back on itself as it rises to the first floor, finished with a wooden banister and grey carpet that continues onto the landing. From here, three further bedrooms and an additional shower room are accessed.

The first of the upstairs bedrooms is a generous double with wooden flooring and sloping ceilings that add interest to the space. Glazed French doors open to a small Juliet balcony, bringing in plenty of light and giving the room a real sense of openness. A built-in wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors provides storage, while the en-suite shower room includes a vanity unit with basin and toilet, a shower enclosure lined with light grey wetwall and a tall chrome towel radiator.

The second bedroom up here is finished with white painted walls and light grey carpet, with two built-in wardrobes, both fitted with mirror fronted sliding doors. A dormer window brings light into the room, with a radiator positioned beneath.

The final bedroom is similar in size and layout, a comfortable double, finished with white painted walls and light coloured carpet. Two built-in wardrobes with mirrored sliding doors provide storage, while a good-sized window looks out over the surrounding grounds.

The upstairs shower room is fitted with a white vanity unit incorporating storage for bathroom essentials, a toilet and hand basin. A large walk-in shower enclosure sits alongside. The room has a window with a modern chrome towel radiator below.

Heating is provided by an oil-fired boiler located within the attached double garage, supplying underfloor heating to the ground floor and radiators upstairs. Hot water is stored in a pressurised cylinder housed within a cupboard on the landing, with the oil tank located discreetly within the grounds.

The attached double garage is accessed via two metal vehicle doors and a UPVC pedestrian door, with an internal link directly into the utility room. Outside, the house sits within generous garden ground, partially bounded by stone and brick walling and timber fencing. A shared private track leads to the property, while the driveway to the side offers plenty of space for multiple vehicles, right beside the garage.

All in all, Oakland House offers generous, flexible living in a peaceful rural setting, with modern comforts and space that works perfectly for family life. With Invergordon close by and Inverness within easy reach, it’s a home that feels both secluded yet well connected, and one that’s certainly best appreciated by seeing it in person.
