Fantastic Renovation Opportunity – Semi Detached Cottage with Garage on the Outskirts of Turriff

Low & Partners is delighted to bring to the market Idoch Cottages, a semi detached three bedroom cottage set on the peaceful outskirts of Turriff. Offering tremendous potential and an opportunity for the new owner to upgrade and shape the home to their own taste, this charming property enjoys a generous plot, a detached garage, and a wonderfully quiet rural setting while remaining within easy reach of local amenities.

The cottage opens with a bright porch that leads into a notably large entrance area – an inviting space that immediately hints at the flexibility this home offers. With windows overlooking the front garden, a radiator for warmth and fitted lighting, it is a superb spot to create a welcoming first impression.

From here, the spacious hallway provides access to all ground floor accommodation. Its size and layout make it ideal for additional storage or decorative features, and the lighting and radiator ensure comfort throughout the seasons.

The lounge is a standout room, generous in scale and filled with natural light from its front facing windows. An open fire creates a cosy focal point, perfect for winter evenings, while the overall proportions of the room make it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.

Bedroom One, currently also suitable as a dining room, sits to the rear of the property. With a window overlooking the garden, a radiator, lighting, and an open cupboard with shelving, it offers excellent versatility depending on the buyer’s needs.

The bathroom is fitted with a bath and electric shower above, a privacy window, heated towel rail, toilet and sink – a practical space ready for modernisation.

The kitchen is well sized and provides ample room for appliances, along with a handy breakfast bar area. A window brings in natural light, and a door leads directly to the back garden, making it easy to enjoy outdoor dining or simply step out into the fresh countryside air.

Upstairs, the landing is brightened by a window and offers two useful cupboards, one housing the consumer unit. A radiator and lighting complete the space.

There are two further bedrooms on the upper floor. The front facing bedroom is a good size with a built in cupboard, radiator, lighting and a window overlooking the garden and surrounding countryside. The rear bedroom also enjoys garden views and includes a cupboard plus an additional storage cupboard housing the water tank.

Externally, the property continues to impress. A large driveway provides excellent parking, leading to the detached garage which benefits from power and light. The front and back gardens are easily maintained and offer plenty of scope for landscaping or creating outdoor seating areas. The property is heated by oil, with the boiler and tank located at the rear. A summer house and shed add further appeal, providing additional storage or hobby space.

Idoch Cottages presents a fantastic opportunity for those seeking a home with character, space and potential in a tranquil rural setting. With thoughtful upgrading, this cottage could become a truly special residence.
