Glenview, Fortrose, IV10 8SN

Open countryside surrounds Glenview on all sides, with far reaching views across rolling fields and woodland. The setting delivers the peace and space many buyers search for, while the bungalow itself is of an extremely high finish and includes four double bedrooms, spacious living areas and gardens that have been carefully maintained. A sweeping driveway leads into the property and provides extensive parking for multiple vehicles. This leads directly to the detached garage with an electric roller door for access.

Inside, the living room is a wonderfully inviting space where soft grey walls are paired with crisp white skirtings and coving, while timber flooring brings warmth and character. The focal point is undoubtedly the multi-fuel stove, set within a striking chimney breast finished in stacked stone cladding. A timber mantel sits above, creating a feature that naturally draws the eye. Ceiling spotlights add a modern finish. Glazed double doors open directly into the conservatory, allowing both spaces to flow naturally together.

The conservatory enjoys far reaching countryside views. The pitched and hipped roof gives an impressive sense of height with a dark grey tiled floor. A modern cream coloured multi-fuel stove adds warmth making this a room you can enjoy year round.

The kitchen and dining room is a superb open plan space. Cream cabinets are paired with timber worktops creating a timeless feel, with ceiling spotlights above. At the centre of the room, a large island incorporates an induction hob, with an extended breakfast bar giving you space for casual seating. The Rayburn range sits alongside an integrated oven and microwave, combining traditional character with modern convenience. Beyond the kitchen, the dining area comfortably accommodates a large table and chairs, creating the perfect setting for family meals or larger gatherings.

The utility room continues the same high standard found in the kitchen. Dark cabinets contrast beautifully with timber effect worktops, with a stainless steel sink positioned beneath a large window overlooking the garden. There is dedicated space for laundry appliances along with additional storage, helping to keep the main living areas clutter free. A modern vertical radiator adds a contemporary touch.

The bathroom has been finished with a bold design that immediately sets it apart. Dark geometric wallpaper creates a striking backdrop, complemented by contrasting charcoal wall panels around the bath, light grey panels in the shower and a dark tiled floor. A freestanding bath takes centre stage, positioned to create a genuine focal point within the room and paired with a floor mounted chrome tap and shower attachment. A large walk-in shower enclosure occupies the opposite corner of the room. Beside this, a fitted vanity unit in a light timber finish incorporates storage, shelving and a basin set beneath a modern illuminated mirror. The generous size allows each feature to be appreciated individually, creating a bathroom that works well for every member of the family.

The master bedroom has light grey painted walls, timber facings and matching skirtings. A large window sits above a radiator and frames views across the surrounding countryside. A mirror fronted sliding wardrobe sits on one wall with an additional built in wardrobe with timber doors on another. This bedroom also benefits from an en-suite shower room which features a timber worktop with twin, side by side basins, set above dark grey drawer units. Mirrored wall cabinets provide additional storage above, while the toilet is incorporated into a matching fitted unit. Large grey wall tiles continue behind the sink and throughout the shower enclosure, creating a modern look. The walk-in shower sits on one side of the room and includes a rainfall shower head and separate handheld attachment.

Bedroom two has a completely different character, centred around a striking black and white cityscape feature wall. The remaining walls are painted in a light grey shade, complemented by timber skirtings, facings and window surrounds. Storage is particularly well catered for with two built-in wardrobes featuring timber sliding doors, while the laminate flooring provides a practical and low maintenance finish.

The third bedroom is also decorated in light grey tones with white skirtings and facings creating a clean, modern look. Two open fronted wardrobes provide hanging space and shelving, giving you practical storage without reducing the usable floor area.

The fourth bedroom has a wall covered with bold striped wallpaper in shades of grey and white, creating a feature that gives the room its own identity. A wide window overlooks the garden and sits above a radiator, while laminate flooring provides an easy to maintain surface. It’s another generous double room with space for a large bed and additional furniture, making this another versatile bedroom suitable for a range of uses.

Outside large areas of lawn wrap around the home, providing plenty of space for children to play or pets to roam. A paved terrace area in one corner has been positioned to take advantage of the uninterrupted views across neighbouring fields, creating an ideal spot for outdoor dining and entertaining. An additional raised decked seating area offers another place to enjoy the surroundings. From almost every point within the garden, the countryside panorama forms a stunning backdrop.

What makes Glenview memorable isn't a single room or feature, but the way the house and its surroundings work together. The generous accommodation provides space for family life, while every window seems to draw your attention back to the countryside beyond. For buyers looking for a large family home in a peaceful location then this is the perfect property. Don’t delay, contact Hamish Homes now to arrange your private viewing.
