Splendid 2 Bedroom Bungalow with detached Garage and Large Gardens

Elegant two-bedroom bungalow in peaceful location close to Cromarty Firth

Set on a corner site at the end of an attractive, quiet residential cul-de-sac, this beautiful detached bungalow enjoys a fabulous location. However, it is still within a short distance of shops and just a two-mile drive from the neighbouring town of Alness with its more comprehensive range of services. Constructed in 1998, the property has been beautifully maintained and offers a delightful home for a couple or small family.

Approached from its large, gravelled driveway, which gives easy access to a single garage, the house is slightly elevated and accessed via stone steps into a vestibule that also serves as a utility area with a sink and cabinets. An alternative entrance is available via the garden.

The entrance hall is long, with several turns lending interest, and its neutral colour scheme creates a feeling of space and light. The living room is elegantly appointed with a decorative radiator cover and plenty of windows, creating an airy and cheerful space. An open archway leads to the kitchen, and a pair of French doors open onto a generous timber patio. This is a welcoming and attractive space that offers plenty of room with an appealing view and access to the south-facing garden.

The kitchen enjoys a great deal of natural light and has been beautifully designed to make the most of the space, its practical U-shaped layout leaving plenty of room for a table and chairs if desired. With clean lines, wooden work surfaces, and an array of cabinets, the kitchen is modern but homely and welcoming.

Along the hall is a spacious sunroom glazed on three sides, creating a fabulous space for relaxing or entertaining and capturing a substantial amount of natural light. With access to the garden and its elegant shape, this room offers excellent potential as a comfortable sitting room in sunny weather or a home office or craft room.

The principal bedroom is well-shaped and offers plenty of space for furnishings. Its ensuite shower room is finished with white metro tiles and a WC and hand wash basin; the open shower area is finished in blue and is generously sized.

The second bedroom is pretty and equally well-appointed and benefits from a built-in large mirrored wardrobe.

A family bathroom is located close to the utility area. It is partially tiled in white and fitted with white sanitary including a bath with shower over, a WC and a hand basin.

The timber-fenced garden surrounds the property and includes generous areas of well-tended lawn, a utility space, and a drying green. The low fencing and open areas around the property offer a fabulous light-filled outdoor space that has excellent views of the sky.

With an interior space of 96m2, 9 Royal Oak Drive is a generously sized property that is manageable and pleasantly designed throughout. It is a home that has been obviously treated with pride and well cared for and offers a tasteful and peaceful home. Its exceptional value and beautiful setting sets it apart, and we anticipate significant interest in this lovely bungalow.
