Substantial detached bungalow in fabulous condition

Situated just off one of the main National Cycle Routes and in a quiet residential setting close to Culloden, this generously sized bungalow is expected to be a popular listing.

Beautifully maintained and decorated throughout, 22 Cameron Avenue was built in 1975, although its pleasant decor and fabulous use of space make it feel so much more recent. With a massive interior area of 124m2, a large garden, and its proximity to Culloden Academy, make it an extremely comfortable family home.

The property is on a quiet suburban street in a peaceful area close to woodland and countryside and is accessed via a large, paved driveway with space for several cars.

It opens into a hallway that gives access to a massive living room. This room is vast, and light-filled with double-aspect outlooks, and is finished with a polished wooden floor, white walls, and wood. A wood-burning stove with an exposed flue is to one side, and patio windows face west and open onto steps that lead to the paved front garden. The room offers wide open spaces, but a beamed ceiling creates potential as a natural divider, offering many opportunities for zoning into separate seating and gathering spaces, making it perfect for welcoming visitors and entertaining.

Further reflecting the scale of the property, the kitchen is divided into two L-shaped layouts, each substantial with generous worktop and storage spaces. The worksurfaces are finished in wood, and the cabinet doors are in a tasteful off-white, giving a welcoming but relaxed feel. A generously sized open area leaves plenty of room for dining furniture, and a glazed door leads to the rear garden.

The four large bedrooms are all well decorated in the same neutral palette used throughout the property, with warmer coloured wooden accents for the joinery.

The principal bedroom has a mirrored wardrobe and an en-suite shower room with panelled walls; it is fitted with a curved walk-in shower enclosure, WC and pedestal basin. Two further bedrooms are both generously sized and also finished in white. The fourth bedroom, although smaller in comparison, is still a well-sized space and offers potential as a home office or recreation room.

The family bathroom is decorated with stone-coloured tiles, and the bath has a shower over it. There is also a white WC, and wash hand basin in a vanity unit.

Outside, a pergola with a translucent roof covers a space fitted with screens that provide privacy, and that currently houses a hot tub and outdoor kitchen. A large paved and gravel area lies beyond this, along with lawn and utility spaces, including timber stores. A gate leads to a garage and a further parking area.

This is a substantial property in an attractive location; its generous layout, peaceful setting and proximity to a popular senior school make this not just a fabulous family home but one that is very much suited to entertaining and relaxation.
