Description

Nestled amidst the rolling countryside of Ospisdale, "Swallows Pausing" is a delightful three-bedroom bungalow offering a peaceful escape from the bustle of modern life. Surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty, this property blends traditional charm with modern conveniences, making it an ideal home for those seeking serenity and rural charm.

The home welcomes you through a timber-framed carport into a practical utility room, complete with wood laminate flooring, wooden worktop and ample space for laundry appliances. From here, step into the heart of the home: a spacious kitchen/dining room. Soft cream cabinets, warm wooden worktops and a sleek sink create a cosy yet contemporary feel, while vibrant blue patterned wallpaper adds a touch of character. With room for a large dining table and integrated appliances, this space is perfect for family meals or entertaining guests.

The living room is a warm and inviting space, featuring a traditional stone fireplace with a multi-fuel stove as its centrepiece. Neutral walls and a tartan-style carpet enhance the cosy ambiance, while a large window frames views of the scenic surroundings.

Each of the three bedrooms is generously sized and thoughtfully decorated. The primary bedroom features floral wallpaper and a built-in wardrobe, with views over the garden’s decking area. The second bedroom boasts bright, multicoloured floral wallpaper and two built-in wardrobes, while the third bedroom combines a soft pink, white and grey floral design with its own built-in storage.

The family bathroom continues the home’s vibrant yet practical theme, featuring pink-toned wallpaper on one wall that adds a splash of character and personality. The bath, complete with an overhead shower, is surrounded by sparkling white wet-wall panelling, offering a sleek and low-maintenance finish. The combination of modern practicality and playful decor creates a functional yet inviting space, perfect for relaxing at the end of the day or accommodating busy family routines.

Outside, the property boasts extensive garden grounds, offering a harmonious blend of charm and functionality. Well-maintained lawns, stone chip pathways and a raised decking area provide versatile outdoor spaces for relaxation or entertaining, all surrounded by stunning rural scenery. The garden includes a large 7x3m shed and a spacious workshop with power and light, adding both character and utility. Wildlife enthusiasts will delight in the regular visits from wild deer, who have been known to feed on the grounds, creating a truly unique connection with nature.

Modern comforts enhance the property’s appeal, including double-glazed uPVC windows, efficient air source central heating and photovoltaic solar panels for eco-conscious energy savings which also include a converter and storage battery. The private water supply features ultraviolet filtration for quality and reliability, while smoke, heat and carbon monoxide detectors ensure safety throughout. The insulation within the roof was also redone in 2014 to ensure maximum efficiency.

“Swallows Pausing” is much more than a home; it’s a tranquil retreat in the heart of rural Scotland, combining natural beauty with modern living. Don’t miss the opportunity to view this charming property, schedule your visit today!
