Found in a quiet spot on the western outskirts of Maryburgh, this detached bungalow offers peaceful living with village facilities close by and Dingwall and Inverness both within comfortable reach.

The entrance vestibule sets a bright, tidy tone as soon as you step inside.

It’s the perfect space for family time and quiet evenings at home.

The kitchen and dining area is designed with white shaker style cabinets with brushed chrome handles, balanced by the darker marble effect worktops that run along two sides. There’s space here beneath the counters for your appliances, while a free standing cooker is set neatly with a matching extractor hood above. There’s ample room for a dining table and chairs in the centre. A wide run of windows brings in plenty of daylight, making the whole space feel open and inviting, while the ceiling spotlights keep it well lit into the evening. A back door leads straight out to the garden, ideal to take out the washing or for warmer days when you want to enjoy the fresh air.

The main bedroom is a generous double room, finished in soft cream tones that make it easy to picture your own style and furniture in place. Along one wall, a built-in wardrobe with mirror fronted sliding doors provide excellent storage while also reflecting the light around the room, helping it feel even more spacious. The room also enjoys its own en-suite shower room, fitted with a basin and toilet set beneath the window, bringing in plenty of natural light. Blue and white tiling runs around the lower walls with a decorative border, adding a touch of colour, while the shower cubicle sits to the side with light marble effect panels for a clean, easy to maintain finish. A radiator is fitted beneath the towel rail, helping keep the space warm and comfortable throughout the day.

The second bedroom is another appealing double room, styled in fresh white with a soft blue feature wall that frames the window and radiator beautifully. It’s a calm, welcoming space with plenty of room for furniture. Two built-in storage cupboards sit neatly on either side of the en-suite door, giving you handy places to tuck things away. The en-suite itself is well laid out, with a pedestal basin, toilet and a separate shower cubicle fitted with an electric shower. Light grey wetwall panels line the enclosure for a clean, modern look, while the rest of the room is finished in neutral tones that keep it bright and easy to maintain.

The third bedroom brings a bold burst of colour, with bright pink walls and a matching carpet that give the space a lively, playful character. A built-in wardrobe with mirror fronted sliding doors sitss along one wall, providing excellent storage while helping the room feel even larger. A radiator sits neatly beneath the window, keeping the space warm and welcoming throughout the year.

The fourth bedroom is decorated in soft light blue tones that make it an easy space to relax in.

A radiator is positioned just below the window, ensuring the space stays warm throughout the year.

The bathroom keeps things simple, finished in white tiling that runs across the walls to give the room a fresh look. A white pedestal sink sits beneath a fitted mirror, with the toilet beside it and the bath stretching out along the opposite wall. The flooring is laid in a warm wood effect laminate, adding a touch of softness to the otherwise neutral palette. A recessed shelving area provides an easy spot to store everyday essentials while the overall layout makes the room feel practical and convenient for family life.

The garden wraps naturally around the bungalow, with lawns to the front, side and rear that give the plot a generous, open feel. Timber fencing frames the boundaries, adding privacy without shutting off the sense of space. At the rear, a tarmac driveway provides handy off street parking. The main rear garden is a wide expanse of grass, ideal for families, gardeners or anyone who simply enjoys having a large outdoor area to make their own. Paved pathways run alongside the house, making it easy to move between the different sections of the garden, while mature hedging along one side creates a natural, green backdrop. Two timber sheds are included offering excellent storage for tools, bikes or outdoor equipment and help to keep the rest of the space looking tidy.
