House-hunters seeking a tranquil lifestyle with surrounding rural scenery could well find their dream property in Braid Hill, a modern and spacious family home in an enviable location on Golf Course Road, Strathpeffer.
The spa town is famous for its fine stone-built houses and villas, but it’s also home to more modern properties such as the stylish Braid Hill, a very well presented two-storey detached house which sits among mature gardens, and from where there are fantastic commanding views across the countryside towards the Cromarty Firth and Cats Back.
The property is on the market with Bell Ingram, Inverness, and has a guide price of £300,000.
Joan Stennett, of Bell Ingram, said: “This property offers potential for a family looking for the ideal home that is modern and offers easy living in an area which is abundant in rural charm.
“The views on offer are certainly not to be missed, and the tiered decking would be the perfect place to relax during the summer months and appreciate the surrounding country scenery.
“Braid Hill also offers the best of both worlds in terms of accessibility – boasting a peaceful setting which guarantees privacy, while its close proximity to the thriving town of Dingwall and the city of Inverness provides the perfect mix of both urban and rural facilities.”
The views from here are certainly stunning. To make the most of them, the house comes with a variety of tiered decking areas which have been ideally placed to take advantage of sunlight – giving the property a natural light and airy feel throughout.
The best way to truly appreciate the views and landscaped garden is to arrange to view the house.
The house has an ample yet homely interior, and is in walk-in condition, having been decorated to an excellent standard throughout.
The accommodation is spread out over two floors and comprises a large family/dining room, kitchen, bathroom, hallway and three double bedrooms including a master with en suite on the ground floor. The first floor features a spacious lounge with triple-aspect windows.
Features of note include the kitchen and family dining area. This L-shaped room is a fabulous family area with an open-plan layout allowing space for a dining table and also currently a two-piece suite and TV. Dual-aspect windows, including french doors which lead out to front of the property, allow in plenty of natural light.
The kitchen benefits from Karndean flooring and has a good range of beech-effect floor and wall units with a slate-effect work surface. A useful island with matching units provides extra cooking space. A Rangemaster Toledo electric oven with gas hob is included in the sale.
The master bedroom is also the sort of room you won’t want to leave in a hurry. It’s a truly luxurious room with patio doors leading to a balcony to the front and windows to the side garden and rear. There is a separate dressing area with built-in triple wardrobes and a modern en suite with a large walk-in shower with drench head shower.
Strathpeffer has a small selection of local shops, a doctors surgery, hotels, golf course, a primary school and hotels, while the Pavilion regularly plays host to first-class entertainment. The village also hosts the now legendary Strathpuffer Mountain Biking Challenge and offers easy access to a variety of Highland pursuits.
