Description

NEW TO MARKET

“Cowden” is an exceptional luxury bungalow, tucked away in a peaceful position on Back Road, Alva. Set at the foot of the dramatic Ochil Hills, the home enjoys breathtaking outlooks and a rare sense of tranquillity.

Loved by the same family for 54 years, this beautifully maintained home is presented in wonderful condition, with modern touches, generous living spaces, and light-filled interiors. Sitting within expansive gardens, the plot offers exceptional privacy and a truly secluded feel.

Approached via leafy Back Road, a large private driveway provides ample parking for multiple vehicles.

Accommodation: Designed entirely on one level, the layout flows effortlessly. The main living room is a bright, welcoming space with attractive flooring underfoot and an electric fireplace forming a stylish focal point. Sitting semi-open plan to the rear is the dining room, ideally positioned next to the kitchen and featuring French doors that open directly onto the gardens. The bespoke kitchen is fitted with crisp, contemporary cabinetry offering excellent storage, complemented by modern worktops and integrated appliances discreetly housed behind the units. A central island provides relaxed dining space, and a connecting door leads into the conservatory - perfect for enjoying the garden outlook in all seasons.

Three well-proportioned bedrooms sit to the front of the home, each offering pleasant views over the front gardens. One bedroom includes fitted storage, while the main bedroom benefits from built-in storage and a high-quality ensuite, finished with nice sanitaryware and full-height tiling.

A fifth bedroom is currently arranged as a cosy snug, allowing flexibility for a study, playroom, or additional guest accommodation. A stylish four-piece family bathroom features clean, modern tiling and a walk-in shower.

The home is warmed by gas central heating and enhanced by Nordan windows and doors, known for exceptional durability, energy performance, and modern aesthetic appeal.

Grounds: Positioned on a sizeable plot, the property is bordered by timber fencing, mature hedging, and well-kept shrubbery, ensuring both privacy and security. Several sun-dappled seating areas offer perfect spots for relaxing, dining, and entertaining. A garage is included within the deeds.

Location: Back Road is regarded as one of Alva’s most desirable addresses. Alva sits within the Hillfoots villages, nestled between Tillicoultry and Menstrie, and offers a strong sense of community. Families benefit from access to both primary and secondary schools within the village.
