Barclay Drive, Fortrose, IV10 8AA

This relatively new semi-detached bungalow in Fortrose offers modern living across one level, a private garden to the rear and a layout that feels homely from the moment you step inside. Built in 2016, the décor is bright and clean throughout.

To the front, a small lawn separates the home from the road, while the driveway to the side provides private parking for a couple of vehicles. You enter from this side of the property into the hallway, where bright white painted walls and wooden flooring set the tone straight away.

Straight ahead, the lounge sits at the front of the property and immediately feels light and open. Two windows sit side by side, bringing in plenty of daylight and giving the room a sense of space. There’s a radiator mounted beneath this to keep the room warm year round. The wooden flooring continues underfoot, while the layout gives you flexibility to arrange seating comfortably without feeling restricted.

The kitchen sits to the rear and is designed with cabinets finished in a modern grey with black accents, including black worktops, kickboards and trims, giving the room a sharp, contemporary look. A Bosch oven and hob are built in, while the sink is positioned beneath the window looking out to the garden. There’s space beneath the counter for a washing machine and enough room alongside for a small table and chairs. The back door sits just beside the window, opening directly out to the patio.

Bedroom one sits at the end of the hallway and is a good sized double room. The neutral finish keeps it calm and easy to furnish, while the built-in wardrobe with frosted sliding doors provides a good amount of storage without dominating the space. A wide window looks out to the rear garden, with a radiator positioned beneath.

The second bedroom is found at the front of the home and is another double, currently used as a child’s bedroom. The space is bright and flexible, with its own built-in wardrobe featuring mirrored sliding doors, and enough room to adapt depending on your needs.

The bathroom continues the modern feel of the home, with a strong contrast between white walls and black wetwall panels around the bath and sink areas. The bath is fitted with a shower over, while a vanity unit houses both the sink and toilet, giving you useful storage below while keeping the space clean and practical. A frosted window brings in natural light without affecting privacy.

Outside, the rear garden adds another layer to how the home can be enjoyed. A large paved patio sits directly outside the back door, offering a ready made space for outdoor seating or dining. Beyond that, the garden is mainly laid to lawn, with a raised planting section adding shape and colour. Two timber sheds provide plenty of storage for tools or outdoor equipment with the oil tank neatly enclosed by timber screening to keep the space looking tidy. The garden is fully enclosed with timber fencing, giving a good sense of privacy.

For buyers looking for a modern home that’s easy to manage and nicely styled throughout, this is one that will fit your family perfectly. Arrange your private viewing with Hamish Homes and see how easily this home would work for you.
