Mackay Road, Inverness, IV2 4JJ

From the front, 20 Mackay Road gives little away, concealing the depth and versatility that lies beyond the crisp exterior. But step inside, and the home quickly reveals itself, with five bedrooms and multiple living areas. A driveway provides off-street parking, and the gardens frame the property with areas of lawn, shrubs and trees that soften the edges and offer privacy.
Inside, the hallway immediately impresses with its rich wooden flooring and clean cream walls, creating a warm and inviting tone that runs throughout much of the ground floor. This central space links to the principal reception rooms and bedrooms, giving an easy flow to the layout.
Open plan to the hallway, the dining room offers a sociable space for family meals or entertaining. Large enough for a full dining table and chairs, the room is lit by a window with a radiator beneath, while an additional radiator on the inner wall ensures warmth throughout. The neutral cream decor keeps the atmosphere calm while a striking spiral staircase rises from this room to the first floor, providing a characterful feature.
The lounge is a large room, naturally bright thanks to its wide front window. The electric fireplace, set into a classic dark wood surround with a white inset, brings both a decorative focal point and a sense of comfort. The wooden flooring and neutral walls allow for versatility with furnishings while the scale of the room easily accommodates sofas and additional furniture and still feels spacious.
The kitchen is another substantial room. Wooden cabinets with slim chrome handles are paired with laminate worktops, while patterned dark grey tiles line the preparation areas for an easy to maintain finish. Integrated appliances include a built-in oven with electric hob and extractor above, complemented by a stainless steel sink set beneath the window. There is further space and plumbing for a washing machine and dishwasher, with room remaining for a small dining table and chairs. Wooden flooring lies underfoot while double doors open directly into the conservatory, extending the living space.
The conservatory is a fantastic addition, constructed in block with a triplex roof that fills the room with natural light. This space works equally well as a relaxing seating area or an informal dining room, with tiled pattern flooring, a radiator for year-round use and a glazed door that opens to a small balcony overlooking the rear garden.
The ground floor also includes three bedrooms, offering excellent flexibility. The first is a good size double, finished with neutral decor and a wide window that allows natural light to fill the room. Wooden flooring and a radiator beneath the window keep the space both stylish and practical.
A second double bedroom continues the same finish, with wooden flooring and soft tones that make it feel calm and comfortable. A window with radiator beneath completes the simple but welcoming style.
The third bedroom is slightly smaller in size but equally well presented. With wooden flooring, a wide window and neutral walls, it is currently set up as a home office, showing its flexibility for modern living.
Completing the ground floor is the family bathroom. This brings together clean finishes with subtle decorative touches. A white suite includes a bath with mixer shower above, a toilet and sink while a frosted window is great for light and privacy. White tiling with a decorative trim enhances the fresh look, while gold fittings on the bath and shower add a touch of character. A wall mounted cabinet above the sink provides useful storage.
The spiral staircase, with its timber treads and black metal balustrade, leads to the first floor, where two further bedrooms are found. Both incorporate the convenience of private shower cubicles, giving each room a sense of independence.
The larger of the two bedrooms is a bright and spacious double with white walls and extensive built-in storage that wraps around one side of the room. Alongside its shower cubicle, it also benefits from an en-suite cloakroom fitted with toilet and sink, making it feel like a self-contained retreat.
The second bedroom is another good sized double, with a light carpet, built-in wardrobe that frames the bed area, a window with radiator beneath and its own shower cubicle discreetly positioned in the corner.
Beyond the living spaces, the property also includes excellent outdoor areas and storage. There’s a single integral garage, fully lined and fitted with lighting, power and heating. An older timber garage and an additional block-built garage beneath a metal sheet roof provide even more storage and workshop potential. The garden even benefits from a greenhouse which adds scope for growing your own food or flowers.
The outside space is generous, with lawns to the front, side and rear, complemented by paved pathways and timber fencing for privacy. The rear garden is especially attractive, largely laid to lawn but enhanced with mature trees, shrubs and plants, creating a pleasant backdrop and a space that can be shaped to individual taste.
This is a substantial and versatile family home in a popular residential area of Inverness, combining generous living spaces, multiple bedrooms and bathroom options, with extensive outbuildings and garden grounds. With scope to personalise and an excellent location close to the city centre, 20 Mackay Road represents an ideal opportunity for a wide range of buyers.
