Welcome to 3 Whitelaw Road
3 Whitelaw Road presents an exciting opportunity to acquire a generously proportioned family home. Originally built in 1970 and later extended, this spacious property is ideally suited for families, offering four double bedrooms, two sizeable reception rooms, and two bathrooms. Inside, space is abundant, and the outside certainly complements it, with large gardens to both the front and rear, a brand-new decked patio, double driveway, shed, and a semi-detached garage.

Location
Located in Aith, approximately 22 miles from Lerwick, 3 Whitelaw Road offers a convenient half-hour commute. Aith is a thriving community with essential amenities close by, including a well-regarded local school, the West Mainland Leisure Centre, and the Eid Community Co-op. Other nearby facilities include the Eid Hall and Rankin Lounge, Aith Church, Auld Skule Recycling Centre, Aith Marina, Michaelswood, the RNLI Station, and a local garage.

Accommodation
The property opens into a vestibule leading to a welcoming hallway with excellent under-stair storage. The spacious lounge benefits from large windows that allow natural light to flood the room and is centred around an electric fireplace. Off the lounge is a practical kitchen, fitted with both wall and base units and a generous cupboard.

Also on the ground floor is a large double bedroom, currently used as a home office, which includes a storage cupboard housing the hot water tank. Moving through to the extended section of the house, you'll find another double bedroom with a sizeable walk-in wardrobe, a bathroom comprising a bath, W.C., and hand basin, as well as a well-appointed utility room that completes the ground floor.

Upstairs, a split landing leads to two separate areas. To the left is the first floor of the original house, where you’ll find two spacious double bedrooms, each with built-in storage cupboards. In similar homes, these cupboards have been extended to create additional wardrobe space. Both rooms are comfortably sized for double beds and furniture, and each features a Dormer Window.

The other staircase leads to the extended first-floor area, which includes a second generously sized lounge offering stunning sea views and a large storage cupboard. Adjacent is a second bathroom fitted with a corner shower cubicle, W.C., and hand basin.

The property benefits from oil central heating via a wet radiator system and is fully double-glazed throughout.

External Features
Set on a generous plot, the property boasts well-maintained gardens at both the front and rear. The rear garden includes a paved patio leading to a further seating area, with a large drying green beyond. Gates at the rear can be removed to provide garden access if needed. The oil tank is neatly situated in a small area to the side.

At the front, a double driveway provides off-street parking for two vehicles. There is also a small storage shed and a newly constructed decked patio in a sheltered spot beside the front door. A semi-detached garage further enhances the property’s appeal.

Early viewing is highly recommended.
