North Road, Forres, IV36

Yopa (Moray) proudly presents Greenwood Cottage, a striking traditional stone and slate detached property featuring four bedrooms. Nestled in the heart of Forres, this home is surrounded by mature and expansive gardens, providing genuine privacy from the outside world. The property boasts a spacious layered garden at the rear, while a tarmac driveway at the front allows comfortable parking for multiple cars.

This rarely available home is rich in original features and in beautiful, walk-in condition. Its generous room proportions, well-maintained interiors, fresh decor, and bright, airy ambience make it comfortable and inviting.

You enter the property through a porch that opens into a small entrance hall with a stone staircase leading to the upper floors. To your left, a door opens into a comfortable and spacious family lounge, which features a multi-fuel stove as its focal point. It also has a door leading to a summer room overlooking the rear garden.

The lower hall has a convenient WC discreetly located underneath the stairwell. To the right of the entrance hall, you will find a generous kitchen with a separate formal dining room adjacent to it, which can comfortably seat six adults. The kitchen is in keeping with the property’s style, featuring a classic white cottage design with ample storage, an integrated oven and grill, a gas hob, and a portable island that offers a spacious yet traditional setting.

A slight slope leads to a medium-sized utility room at the rear of the kitchen, which includes additional storage, a sink, and a Vaillant gas boiler. From the utility room, a door provides access to the annexe. Currently, the annexe is used as a home office but could easily serve as a supplementary guest bedroom. Finally, a door from the annexe leads back to the tarmac parking area at the front of the house.

The stairs lead to the first floor. On the half-landing is the exquisite main family bathroom with a separate double shower and deep roll-top bath. The white half-tiled splashback and ceiling lights create a modern family bathroom. A further few stairs take you to the 1st-floor landing. On your left is Bedroom 2, a large dual-aspect double with full-width wardrobes. On your right is the Principal Bedroom, an extremely spacious (25m2) dual-aspect room with ample space for freestanding furniture.

Climbing the stairs to the attic reveals two further bedrooms. Bedroom four is a spacious single room suitable for a child, while Bedroom three is a full double featuring modern Velux windows. The upper landing provides ample space for storage or display. The attic floor has been refurbished with new Velux windows and insulation, completing the interior accommodations. Across the property are numerous original features that must be seen in person to appreciate their quality.

The house is on a spacious 0.2-acre plot, including a front lawn and a tarmac parking area. At the rear of the property, an elevated lawn is just outside the sunroom. From there, you can descend a gentle slope to discover a generous back garden with a wooden garden shed, vegetable beds, a greenhouse, and a wooden decking area with a summer house. This configuration allows you to enjoy the sun throughout the day in a beautiful, mature space filled with apple, plum, pear, green gage, hazelnut trees, various shrubs, and a lawn. It's an ideal environment for children and pets. The secluded location provides a peaceful and secure living setting.

Greenwood Cottage is an exceptional family home that elegantly combines traditional features with modern design. The garden offers a fantastic opportunity for future owners to personalise it to their liking. To truly appreciate the spacious layout, charming character, and private location of this immaculate family home in Forres, interested buyers should visit the property in person. Viewings can be booked through the Yopa website listing.
