1 Easter Kintrae Steading is an end terrace house, on two levels, forming part of an attractive 2008 farm steading conversion of nine residential properties. It is situated in the fertile Morayshire countryside three miles north west of Elgin.
The stone built steading, sitting under slated roofs, is surrounded by well-tended lawned areas and car parking, designated for the individual properties. The house that has an excellent Home Report and is in move in condition is approached from the courtyard on the east side of the steading.
The front door opens into the vestibule that leads into the hall; the vestibule has a built-in storage cupboard. The hall is naturally lit by a large Velux type skylight at the head of the stairs and under the stair there is another storage cupboard. The spacious living room extends to the full width of the house and the western wall is entirely windowed and includes a glass door that opens into the courtyard; there is a second full height window in the room that further enhances the excellent light level while giving the room a dual aspect. The kitchen, again, stretches the full width of the house with the same windowed west facing wall as the living room. Within it, there is a very clearly defined large dining area. The modern kitchen has a plethora of storage cupboards, both floor and wall mounted, down lit work surfaces with tiled splash backs and a full complement of integrated appliances. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a split level bedroom that has its own partially tiled shower room with three piece suite and heated ladder towel rail. Alternatively, the two rooms can be used independently of each other and the split level room would make an ideal office or study.
There is a large built-in cupboard with sliding doors on the naturally lit first floor landing. The larger double bedroom has both a dormer window and a skylight in the opposite comb and a large wardrobe with sliding mirrored doors; it also has access to the Jack and Jill bathroom. The second double bedroom has a skylight in each of the combs, as well as a window in the gable wall; it also has a built-in wardrobe. The Jack and Jill bathroom's second access is from the landing; it is naturally lit, tiled and has a three piece suite with a shower over the bath. All the windows are triple glazed, the sky lights are double glazed and there is a full lpg central heating system provided by a Worcester Greenstar boiler that is housed in the kitchen.
