2 bed semi-detached house for sale

Barclay Gardens, Inverness IV1

Life in North Kessock feels peaceful thanks to its coastal village setting, but it also enjoys quick access into Inverness. This modern two bedroom home sits neatly within a quiet cul-de-sac that feels settled and residential. With two comfortable double bedrooms and a private rear garden, it’s an easy home to picture yourself settling into, whether that’s your first step onto the ladder or a move towards something simpler and more manageable.

Stepping inside, the front door opens directly into the living room, creating a welcoming first impression. White painted walls keep the space bright, while a brick style wallpaper creates a feature wall, adding personality without overwhelming the room. Black and white patterned flooring gives the space a modern edge and there’s a wide front window which brings in plenty of daylight.

The living room leads through to the kitchen and dining area. Glossy white cabinets with thick chrome handles are paired with dark grey worktops, creating a clean, contemporary look. Brick style splashback tiling in a matching grey colour adds texture. There’s a built-in oven with electric hob and extractor above, space below the counter for a washing machine and a stainless steel sink positioned beneath a window overlooking the garden. To the side, there’s room for a dining table and chairs, making this a space that works just as well for everyday meals as it does for having friends or family round. Double glazed French doors open directly out to the garden, drawing light into the room and making it easy to step outside when the weather’s on your side.

Between the kitchen and living room sits a handy ground floor WC, ideal for visitors and day to day use. Finished in white with a decorative black tiled section, it’s a nicely designed, practical spot.

Upstairs, the landing connects the two bedrooms and shower room. Both bedrooms are comfortable doubles, finished with white walls and grey carpet, giving you a neutral base that’s easy to personalise. Each room offers enough space for a large bed and additional furniture, with windows and radiators ensuring they feel bright and comfortable throughout the year.

The shower room has a modern, clean feel, centred around a wide shower enclosure lined with marble effect wall panels. A vanity unit incorporates both sink and toilet, keeping the layout neat and efficient, while wood effect flooring adds warmth underfoot. A frosted window allows natural light while maintaining privacy.

Outside, the rear garden is enclosed by tall timber fencing, creating a private outdoor space that’s easy to maintain. A small paved patio sits just outside the French doors, offering a natural spot for outdoor seating, while the lawn provides room to relax or potter. An oil tank is positioned on the grass with a timber shed in place offering useful storage. A paved path runs down the side of the house, providing access to the front.

This is a modern, manageable home in a sought after commuter village, offering a balance of quiet living and easy access into Inverness. It’s well suited to first time buyers, downsizers or anyone looking for a smart, low maintenance property in a location that continues to be popular.
