Open-plan living and bags of style go hand-in-hand in one stylish Beauly home
What’s better than moving into a brand-new house? Moving into one that’s almost new, which means any of the snagging issues that come with all new homes have already been resolved.
Number Five Fairlie View in Beauly, completed last year, is an impressive modern, detached home, designed by the architect to make full use of the views and attract a great deal of natural light.
The house, which is in a stylish residential development on the outskirts of the busy Highland town, has a number of impressive features, including multi-fuel stove, Nordan doors, an air-source heat pump and a ventilation heat-recovery system, all of which mean whoever moves in won’t be facing high heating bills.
Accommodation in the two-storey house begins with a broad, welcoming hallway which leads to a number of rooms including the master bedroom with en-suite shower room, a second bedroom, utility room and a family room with direct access, via glass doors, into the garden. This floor also has a well-equipped family bathroom and a very useful boot room.
A carpeted staircase leads to the spacious landing where there is space for a study area. This opens up nicely into a very large, bright, open-plan living space which incorporates a sitting and dining area and a modern fitted kitchen.
This part of the house has been cleverly designed and includes a balcony making it an ideal place to admire the views over the countryside and beyond. Elsewhere on this floor, there is a guest bedroom and a shower room.
Outside, there’s a stone-chipped driveway with ample off-street parking for several vehicles leading to integral garage with up and over door. The rear garden is enclosed, making it child friendly and it requires little maintenance as it has an extensive patio, sun terrace and drying area. The house is also within the catchment area of the local primary school.
Beauly has a wide range of local amenities, shops, hotels, coffee shops and banks and has good transport links to Inverness where a wider range of shopping is available with main high street shopping, supermarkets, retail parks, leisure and recreational facilities.
For those who enjoy the great outdoors, the house is ideally situated to take advantage of the many activities available such as cycling and hillwalking. Shooting, stalking and fishing are all readily available on estates.
