Forming part of an exclusive residential development, Ravelrig Wynd is an attractive family home offering bright and versatile accommodation arranged across three floors. Designed to deliver both elegance and functionality, the home features high-quality fixtures and fittings throughout, including contemporary kitchen and bathrooms. The interior begins with a welcoming reception hall with amtico flooring, built-in storage and a cloakroom. This gives access to a front-facing sitting room with a stylish inset fireplace, a amtico-floored dining room also overlooking the front and a spacious L-shaped kitchen/family room to the rear. This impressive space features amtico flooring, a range of wall and base units with a breakfast bar, complementary worktops and splashbacks, modern integrated Siemens appliances and an adjoining fitted utility room with external access. The family area connects to the sitting room via double doors and opens onto the rear terrace through bi-fold doors - ideal for modern family living and entertaining.

On the first floor, a spacious landing with additional storage and space for a seating area leads to the front-facing principal bedroom, which features a fitted dressing area and an en suite shower room. There are three further double bedrooms, all with fitted storage - one with a connecting door to the principal bedroom and another benefiting from its own en suite shower room. A well-appointed family bathroom completes the floor. The property’s remaining two double bedrooms can be found on the part-vaulted second floor, along with a family shower room.

The staircase rises to a spacious vaulted Cinema/Audio room. This room also offers excellent potential for conversion into a self-contained annexe if desired (subject to the necessary consents). The well-maintained garden wraps around the property and is predominantly laid to level lawn, bordered by shrubs and hedging with several mature fruit trees. A combination of decked and block-paved terraces offers ideal spaces for entertaining and al fresco dining.
