Culduthel Road, Inverness, IV2 4BH

This property at 164 Culduthel Road, is an exceptional and expansive family home offering space, flexibility and understated elegance in one of Inverness’s most desirable residential areas. With over 300 square metres of accommodation across two floors, including five en-suite bedrooms and a fully self-contained annexe, this is a rare opportunity to secure a property that can truly adapt to suit a wide range of lifestyle needs.
Stepping inside, you’re met with the dramatic sweep of the split timber staircase that rises from the central hallway, setting the tone for the rest of the home. Underfoot, a rich red carpet with a classic pattern continues through the space, adding warmth and character.
To the rear of the hallway, tucked behind the staircase for a sense of privacy, the dining room offers a refined formal setting. Double interior doors are flanked by fitted bookcases on either side. It’s a generous space, comfortably housing a large dining table and ideal for family meals or entertaining guests.
From here, a wide set of double doors lead into the sitting room, a bright and welcoming space decorated in neutral tones with soft carpeting, ceiling spotlights and a large. The atmosphere is relaxed, perfect for unwinding or hosting visitors.
Another major highlight of the home is the kitchen. This has been upgraded in a modern style, with white cabinets, long chrome handles and sleek grey worktops and matching splashbacks. A central island adds further surface space and storage, while the under-cabinet lighting and ceiling spotlights offer flexibility for both cooking and ambient lighting. There’s ample space for a freestanding American-style fridge freezer and a dishwasher, while a window above the sink looks out to the rear of the home.
The kitchen flows directly into a more informal lounge, a cosy, calming space with neutral decor and room for a sofa and additional furniture, ideal for reading, relaxing or catching up with family away from the main reception areas.
Off the dining room, a hallway leads to the rear section of the property where further practical space is found. A long utility room houses a row of additional cabinets, a built-in storage cupboard and dedicated space for laundry appliances, with tiled flooring underfoot and a back door for garden access. Adjacent is a neatly presented cloakroom with a white suite and pale blue walls, as well as a cupboard with louvred timber doors for storage.
Beyond the cloakroom lies the annexe, a self-contained one-bedroom apartment. This includes its own external entrance via a rear door, opening into a comfortable open-plan living room and kitchen. Neutral walls and grey carpet create a modern, neutral base, while the kitchen is fitted with light wood-effect cabinets, white worktops and colourful splashback tiling. An integrated oven and hob, extractor hood and space for freestanding appliances complete the setup.
A short hall leads to the bedroom, a good size double with built-in wardrobe complete with mirror fronted sliding doors. The annexe also has its own stylish shower room with chrome fittings, tiled enclosure, a lit mirror and storage unit beneath the basin. Whether used for multi-generational living, guest accommodation or independent rental, the annexe is a standout asset that adds further flexibility to the home.
Upstairs in the main home, the split staircase opens onto a wide landing finished in the same traditional red patterned carpet as the ground floor hallways. Here, five further bedrooms are arranged across both wings of the upper level, each with its own private en-suite.
One of the upper-floor bedrooms is softly styled in pale grey tones, with a contrasting darker grey feature wall. It features an alcove nestled between two built-in cupboards, a restful spot perfect for a small seat. The en-suite is well appointed with a cubicle shower, electric unit and an illuminated mirror above the basin, ideal for daily ease.
Another bedroom stands out for its impressive scale, with ample room for a king-size bed and additional furnishings without compromising space. The feel here is open and serene, with soft lighting and simple décor. Its private bathroom en-suite includes a full-length bath with overhead electric shower, chrome towel rail and crisp white tiles with subtle grey accents, offering a classic, clean-lined finish.
A further room is full of warmth and light, decorated in gentle yellow tones and finished with a light grey carpet. There’s room here for a large bed and generous storage, while the modern en-suite has been upgraded with grey tiled walls, white fixtures and a compact, stylish layout that maximises space without sacrificing comfort.
Another of the home’s distinctive bedrooms benefits from its own lounge area - a private nook with sloped ceilings and a Velux roof window that make it ideal for reading, watching TV or simply unwinding. The sleeping area flows from this space, continuing the calm, neutral palette, and its en-suite is both modern and bold, featuring textured white wall tiles, black floor tiling and a chrome-framed shower enclosure.
The final bedroom is currently used as a home office, but its proportions and layout make it highly versatile. There’s a built-in wardrobe for storage, white walls and soft carpet underfoot. With its own en-suite shower room, this room works equally well as a guest suite, teenager’s bedroom or an additional private space for multi-generational living.
Outside, the property includes a detached garage with up-and-over doors and a pitched roof, ideal for secure parking or storage. There’s also a timber-built garden room with power and lighting, making it perfect for use as a summer retreat, studio or maybe even an outdoor bar. The gardens themselves are largely paved or gravelled for ease of maintenance. The rear garden includes space for outdoor dining or entertaining, with room for seating and planting, too. Boundaries are a mix of dry stone walling, timber fencing and concrete walls, offering a secure and established perimeter.
This is a rare example of a property that combines scale, quality and versatility in equal measure. Its thoughtful layout, modern finishes and outstanding flexibility make it suitable for growing families, blended households or anyone looking to live and work comfortably under one roof without compromise. With a self-contained annexe, a total of six bathrooms, multiple reception rooms and outdoor space to match, this is a home that offers true long-term value in one of the city’s best-connected locations.
