3 bed semi-detached house for sale

Cranmore Drive, Inverness IV2

Cranmore Drive is a quiet cul de sac within the Smithton area of Inverness. This semi detached home sits on a corner plot with garden ground on three sides and a park directly behind, giving the setting a more open feel than many nearby streets. A gravel driveway runs alongside the house, providing off street parking and access to the detached garage. The front garden is mainly laid with gravel, making it pleasant to view and easy to maintain.

Entry is through the entrance vestibule, which leads into the main hallway. Neutral painted walls keep the space light, with a radiator positioned close to the front door to take the edge off colder days.

The sitting room and dining area stretches from front to rear, creating a long, flexible living space. Clean white painted walls are paired with darker timber finishes around the internal door, window frames and sills, giving the room definition. Windows at both ends of the room bring light in throughout the day, with a radiator fitted beneath each to keep the room cosy. There is space here to arrange both seating and a small dining table without the room feeling crowded.

The kitchen sits on the opposite side of the hallway and is arranged in a U shaped layout. Coloured units are fitted with small chrome handles and topped with solid timber worktops. A stainless steel sink sits beneath the front facing window, while an electric hob is also set into the worktop. A double oven is built into a tall run of units and there’s space and plumbing below for a washing machine. Light coloured vinyl flooring with a tile pattern runs underfoot.

Just off the kitchen, to the rear, a vestibule links the kitchen to the garden. The Worcester Greenstar gas fired boiler is located here, along with the pre insulated hot water cylinder. There is additional space beneath the counter for additional appliances. From here, a door leads straight out into the garden.

Back in the hall, the staircase rises and turns back on itself, finished with a wooden banister and handrail with a dark grey carpet underfoot. This leads you nicely to the first floor landing which branches off to the three bedrooms and the family bathroom.

The first of the bedrooms is a comfortable double room, finished with light grey painted walls that give it a relaxed sense. A large built-in wooden wardrobe spans one full wall, fitted with sliding doors that keep storage neatly contained without taking up floor space. The room has the flexibility to arrange a double bed and additional furniture neatly.

A second bedroom has a softer, more playful feel, with white walls decorated with a tree and bird painted mural that brings character into the space. A built-in wardrobe with painted wooden doors is fitted here, offering valuable storage.

The third bedroom is finished with green and white painted walls. A dormer window brings light into the room, with a radiator positioned beneath. Storage in here comes in the shape of a built-in cupboard fitted with wooden louvred doors, along with an additional open wardrobe space near the door with a hanging rail, giving flexibility.

The bathroom is a practical space, with the bath running along one wall. Decorative chrome taps sit at one end, with an electric shower fitted above the other. A shower curtain is installed to keep things contained. Light cream, small square tiles line the walls around the bath and shower area, giving the room a clean, simple finish. Beside the bath, a white toilet and pedestal basin complete the layout.

Central heating is provided by the Worcester Greenstar 24i gas boiler, feeding radiators throughout the house, with domestic hot water supplied via the premier heating system. Eight photovoltaic panels are fitted across the front and rear roof planes, contributing electricity back to the property. Windows are PVC double glazed units, with a timber single glazed front door and a PVC double glazed rear door.

The rear garden is a mix of paving, gravel and timber decking, offering a range of usable outdoor spaces. To property also enjoys a detached single car garage, made of roughcast construction with a metal up and over vehicle door and a pedestrian side door.

This is a great choice for anyone looking for a comfortable three bedroom property with practical outdoor space and private parking. Its corner plot, park outlook and Smithton setting combine to create a sense of calm, with Inverness and Culloden close enough for everyday needs. It’s a home that’s easy to picture yourself settling into and one that’s best appreciated by seeing it in person, so contact Hamish Homes now to arrange your own private viewing!
