Versatile Character Property Offering Generous Living Space And Modern Touches In Central Rothes Location

This period home brings together generous proportions, modern updates and a versatile layout that makes it ideal for family life. Dating back some 125 years and extended over time, it offers around 165m² of accommodation spread across three levels, with enclosed gardens and useful outbuildings at the rear.

The hallway creates an inviting introduction, with white painted walls contrasted by timber doors, frames and skirtings. Wooden flooring and a long radiator add both warmth and style, leading naturally on to the rooms beyond.

To the front, the living room combines charm and comfort. A large bay window draws in light, while the wood burning stove set within a white surround and sat on a black hearth, creates an inviting focal point. Two radiators, set on opposite walls, help to keep the room warm. A soft grey carpet underfoot and tall ceilings add to the sense of space.

The second ground floor room is currently arranged as a bedroom but is equally suited to use as a dining room or additional family room. Wooden flooring continues through from the hallway, with soft grey painted walls, a tall window to the rear and a long radiator keeping the room warm and practical year-round.

At the rear of the home sits the kitchen, a bright and practical space finished with wooden cabinets, chrome handles and light grey worktops. Small white tiled splashbacks bring a clean touch around the preparation areas, while a built-in oven with electric hob and modern extractor hood are neatly integrated. A stainless steel sink sits beneath one of the two windows that fill the room with light. There is also space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher, while in the corner, a small table and chairs can be accommodated, making this a versatile everyday hub.

From the kitchen, a short rear hallway leads to the back door and also gives access to the ground floor WC. Compact but practical, this cloakroom is fitted with a sink, toilet and chrome towel radiator, finished in a neat and functional style.

The first half landing opens to a comfortable double bedroom. Decorated in light grey tones with soft grey carpet underfoot, it enjoys a rear-facing dormer window that draws in daylight, while its size provides ample scope for bed and furniture arrangements.

Beside this room is the modern shower room, designed with a crisp and contemporary finish. Large white tiles line the walls and floor, while a sleek black radiator adds contrast. The cubicle is enclosed in a black edged frame and fitted with a black rainfall shower head, while the sink and toilet sit neatly side by side. A backlit mirror above the basin completes the polished presentation.

A second staircase rises to the upper landing where three further bedrooms are found. The first is a generous double, decorated in light grey with a soft carpet and a built-in storage cupboard providing useful space.

Another double bedroom impresses with its two dormer windows at the front, one wide and one slim, which bring balance and character to the room. Decorative alcoves within the walls add further charm and flexibility, offering natural places for shelving, furniture or seating.

The final bedroom is a smaller double, styled in the same grey tones with a slim front facing window. Ideal as a child’s room or study, it rounds off the accommodation with flexibility to meet changing needs.

The home is fitted with uPVC double glazed windows and doors, with heating and hot water provided by a gas fired Ideal Logic Combi boiler connected to steel panel radiators. The system is operated by a programmer, room thermostat and thermostatic radiator valves for efficient control.

Outside, the rear garden is enclosed by a mix of timber fencing and stone block walls, providing privacy and security. Concrete paving and gravel make it low maintenance, with a patio outside the back door creating a pleasant seating spot. At the rear a detached garage and adjoining carport, both with metal up-and-over doors, offer valuable storage and sheltered parking.

This home is a substantial and flexible property, combining period character with practical modern upgrades and generous living space. With multiple reception options, modern kitchen and bathrooms, plus garage, carport and enclosed garden, it is perfectly suited to family life in the heart of Rothes. Early viewing is strongly encouraged to appreciate both the space and potential on offer. Contact Hamish Homes now to arrange your own private appointment.
