Both double bedrooms are generously proportioned and include built-in storage, with the master bedroom enjoying a picturesque view of Floors Castle. The spacious kitchen includes a dining area and leads to a practical utility room. A fully carpeted attic, accessed via a timber pull-down ladder from the kitchen, provides excellent versatility, ideal for use as a third bedroom, home office, or creative studio.
