This three bedroom detached bungalow offers comfortable single level living in the convenient, well connected area of Smithton. Built in the mid 1990s, it’s ideal for families, downsizers or anyone looking for a practical home close to everyday essentials, with shops, schools, parks and bus routes all nearby and Inverness city centre just a short drive away.

The bungalow has a smart exterior finished in light brickwork with timber accents. A paved driveway provides ample parking and leads to the detached garage beside the house, while a neatly kept front garden adds a touch of greenery. A timber clad porch with a dark wood door creates a welcoming entrance, setting the tone for homely interior that waits inside.

The kitchen and dining area are modern and beautifully finished. High gloss white cabinets and dark worktops give a sleek contrast, while small brick style tiling with dark grout adds texture along the walls. Integrated appliances, including an induction hob and built in oven, blend seamlessly into the design. A window and glazed back door draw in natural daylight, making the space feel fresh and open. At the other end there’s room for a small dining table beneath a pendant light, ideal for breakfast or relaxed evening meals.

The lounge is a bright and relaxing space. Soft neutral tones and a vaulted ceiling give it a light, open feel, while the layout offers plenty of room for seating and personal touches. French doors open directly to the garden. There’s plenty of room for comfortable seating and additional furniture.

The first of the three bedrooms is a generous room with space for a full set of furniture. A large window draws in natural light while the wooden skirtings and flooring add warmth against the clean white walls. Its simple layout makes it easy to furnish, offering a practical and attractive main sleeping space.

Bedroom two is arranged with practicality in mind, offering enough floor space for a double bed and furniture without feeling crowded. The pale walls keep the look consistent with the rest of the home, while the fitted carpet adds warmth underfoot. It’s a comfortable room that works equally well as a guest or second bedroom.

Bedroom three is a smaller, neatly kept room with wooden flooring and clean neutral painted walls. A radiator fitted beneath the window ensures it stays warm year round. It’s well suited for use as a child’s room, guest bedroom or perhaps as a quiet home office.

There are two shower rooms within the property, providing convenience for family life or visiting guests. The first is fitted with a modern white suite, with an enclosed shower cubicle finished with light tiling and decorative accents. Chrome fittings, a vanity style basin unit and heated towel rail complete this neat and functional space.

The second shower room doubles as a practical utility space, fitted with plumbing for laundry appliances. Bright and neatly designed, it includes a glazed shower enclosure, toilet and compact vanity basin, all set against white tiled and painted surfaces that keep the room feeling fresh and functional.

The property is fitted with double glazed uPVC windows throughout, with the exception of two single glazed timber casement windows in the lounge and a timber framed Velux window in the shower room/utility space. The lounge also features double glazed French doors leading to the garden, while both the front and rear doors are uPVC with double glazed panels. Heating and hot water are provided by a Worcester Greenstar gas-fired combi boiler, serving steel panelled radiators positioned throughout the home. For safety, smoke detectors are installed in the hallway and lounge, along with a heat detector and carbon monoxide detector in the kitchen.

The gardens wrap around the property, offering a mix of lawn areas, paved sections and loose stone features, all enclosed by a combination of timber fencing, hedging and stone boundary walls for privacy. A paved patio sits just outside the French doors from the lounge, providing a pleasant spot for seating. To one side, a concrete hardstanding leads to the detached single garage, built in blockwork with a pitched tiled roof and timber up and over door. Power is connected, making it ideal for storage, workshop use or secure parking.

This bungalow offers a balance of modern comfort, practical living and a peaceful setting just minutes from city life.
