Immaculate bungalow in spectacular landscape setting

Description

Duinish is a beautifully presented modern 1.5 storey home, built in 2009, set in a truly picturesque location overlooking the tranquil waters of the River Fillan. With uninterrupted views of iconic Munros including Ben More, Stob Binnein and Cruach Ardrain, the property offers an appealing combination of contemporary comfort and breathtaking Highland scenery.

Constructed to an exceptional standard, the home features solid oak flooring, double-glazed windows, a bespoke fitted dining kitchen, and high-quality bathroom and en suite fittings throughout. The accommodation begins with a tiled entrance vestibule leading into a bright and spacious reception hallway with solid oak flooring and a turned oak staircase leading up. The lounge is a stunning living space, centred around a log-burning stove set on a raised hearth. French doors open onto a terrace, framing panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and Munros.

The open-plan kitchen is a standout feature, boasting a bespoke range of base and wall-mounted units with solid timber worktops, a Cannon range cooker with six-ring hob, Belfast sink, integrated fridge, and slate flooring. It flows seamlessly into a dining area, where large windows capture the beauty of the gardens and the River Fillan beyond. A separate utility room provides additional workspace.

Off the hallway there is a snug/TV room and two well-proportioned double bedrooms both with built in storage and one with en suite shower room. The family bathroom completes the downstairs accommodation and features a contemporary four-piece suite with a bath, separate tiled shower and tiled walls and flooring.

Upstairs, Duinish benefits from another two bedrooms each at separate ends of the home, both with Juliet balconies looking over the surrounding countryside.

Set within approximately half an acre, the gardens are mainly laid to lawn and designed to take full advantage of the spectacular views. A substantial paved terrace outside the lounge provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and barbecues. The front garden includes a rockery and gravel path, enclosed by stone walling and a beech hedge.

Completing the property is a substantial timber garage with an adjoining workshop and a first-floor store, all under a pitched slate roof—ideal for hobbies, storage, or further development.
