Description

This four-bedroom detached bungalow presents a unique opportunity for renovation in the desirable residential area of Alness. Perched on an elevated site, the property boasts stunning views over Nigg Bay, making it a prime candidate for transformation into a comfortable family home. The layout features a central hallway leading to spacious living areas including a sizable lounge with a charming stone fireplace and panoramic windows, allowing natural light to flood the space. The kitchen/diner, while functional, could benefit from modernisation to enhance its appeal further. Each bedroom offers ample potential for redesigning, including built-in storage solutions. The existing bathroom and shower room are serviceable but would likely require updates for contemporary living standards. Outside, the property is complemented by gardens and garages that could be revitalised into attractive outdoor spaces. With local amenities within reach and good transport links to Inverness, this bungalow holds significant investment potential for those looking to create their ideal home in a picturesque setting.
