4 bed end terrace house for sale

Balconie Street, Evanton IV16

Dating back to around 1880, this extended semi detached home sits right in the centre of Evanton and offers an impressive amount of space spread across three floors. With four bedrooms, two reception rooms and a large kitchen dining space, the layout is well suited to family life while still retaining the charm of a traditional period property.

To the rear of the house you’ll find a generous outdoor area. A large driveway runs alongside the property and opens into a spacious parking area with room for multiple vehicles. This leads directly to the detached timber double garage. Beside the driveway is a paved patio area that works well for outdoor seating or dining. Beyond this the garden opens into a lawned space with trees and shrubs adding greenery and privacy. The boundaries are formed by a mix of stone walls, blockwork and timber fencing.

Stepping inside, the entrance hallway makes an immediate impression. The walls are finished in a mix of grey and green tones which combine beautifully with the striking green and blue tartan carpet that runs underfoot. The same carpet carries on up the staircase ahead, giving the house a cohesive feel from the moment you walk in. A radiator on the wall here helps keep the space warm.

The sitting room sits just off the hallway to the right and is a lovely room with plenty of character. Light coloured walls keep the space bright while a textured black feature wall draws your attention straight to the chimney breast. Set in front is a freestanding log burning stove which creates a cosy focal point during colder months. An alcove beside the fireplace provides a natural spot for furniture or display shelving, too. The rich wooden flooring adds further warmth and a touch of quality.

A door from here leads through to the kitchen and dining area at the rear of the house. As you enter, the dining space comes first where the same wooden flooring continues through from the sitting room. Grey painted walls frame the space which has ample room for a large dining table and chairs, making it ideal for family meals or entertaining. Moving further in, the kitchen area sits beyond. Light coloured cabinets with chrome handles are paired with stylish black worktops, while the walls catch the eye, finished in a bold green tone that gives the room a real personality. The standout feature here is the large range cooker positioned along the external wall and framed by windows on either side, creating a natural centrepiece for the kitchen.

Back towards the front of the house you’ll find a second lounge. This room has a softer decorative style with cream painted walls and a light coloured carpet underfoot. A wide fireplace with a decorative white mantel forms the focal point, housing a wood burning stove set on a black hearth. To one side an alcove with built in cupboard and shelving provides a great place for books, ornaments or photographs. Two deep set windows allow natural light to filter into the room throughout the day.

Also on the ground floor is a WC fitted with a toilet and basin, with white tiling lining the surrounding walls. This is a great addition for day to day use, or for visitors.

Upstairs, the first floor landing leads to several rooms including a study positioned just at the top of the stairs. This room is finished with neutral cream walls and works well as a home office or quiet workspace.

To the left the main bathroom on this floor is another standout feature of the home. A small step leads up to a raised section where a large freestanding bath sits with centre mounted taps, creating a perfect spot to unwind. Alongside this is a spacious walk in shower enclosure for everyday use. The floor in here is finished with striking black tiles which contrast beautifully with the white suite and white wall tiling. Above the tiles a light pink patterned wallpaper softens the space, while a basin, toilet and chrome ladder style towel radiator complete the room. A deep set window brings in plenty of natural light.

Along the hallway there is also a large walk in storage cupboard fitted with shelving. It’s a surprisingly generous space and is ideal for storing household items, towels or cleaning appliances. The tartan carpet continues along into here as well.

The first bedroom sits at the end of the corridor and is a particularly spacious room. The décor is bold, with three purple painted walls while another features striped wallpaper in purple and cream tones. Two windows allow plenty of natural light into the room and there is plenty of space for a large bed and additional furniture. The room also has the benefit of its own en-suite shower room which includes a corner shower cubicle, toilet and basin set within a storage unit.

A second bedroom on this level is located near the staircase leading to the top floor. This is another generous double bedroom finished with textured pink wallpaper and fitted with a light grey carpet. Windows to both the front and side allow plenty of daylight into the room, while a radiator sits between them to ensure it stays warm year round.

The staircase continues up to the second floor where the same tartan carpet runs onto the landing. The two bedrooms on this level both follow a similar attic style design. Each room has sloping ceilings which give them a cosy feel while still providing comfortable space for a bed and furniture. Grey carpets run underfoot while the walls are finished in soft grey tones with a white ceilings above. Rooflight windows bring natural light into each room and radiators ensure the spaces remain comfortable at all times.
