Description

This four-bedroom detached bungalow presents an exciting opportunity to create a charming family home in a picturesque rural setting. Located on the outskirts of the historic village of Torthorwald, Hillview benefits from stunning countryside views that can be enhanced through thoughtful renovations. The property features a spacious layout including a kitchen, utility room, two reception rooms, and a family bathroom, making it well-suited for modern living with some updates. While the kitchen retains its original charm, its size and configuration suggest significant potential for reconfiguration and modernization. The two reception rooms offer versatility; one currently serving as an office could easily be transformed into a cozy snug or additional living space. With ample natural light streaming in from dual aspects in the main living room, a woodburning stove already installed presents opportunities for enhanced ambiance and warmth. The four generously sized bedrooms provide ample space for family or guests, though they would benefit from contemporary touches to maximize their appeal. The bathroom is functional but could also see improvements to align with modern standards. Externally, the property includes off-road parking and a detached garage, while outdoor spaces such as the sandstone patio and two lawns offer wonderful prospects for landscaping or leisure activities. With recent maintenance work on exterior render and gutters already completed, this bungalow stands ready for someone keen to invest time and resources into realizing its full potential.
