5 bed detached house for sale

Miltonduff, Elgin IV30

Yopa (Moray) proudly presents Goodwill, an impressive detached villa (346 m2) built in 1974 and thoughtfully extended in 1992 and 1998. Situated in the picturesque Laich of Moray and whisky country of Miltonduff, this rarely available home is steeped in history and offers excellent overall condition, though it would benefit from some modern updates. The property boasts generous room proportions, a stunning, mature garden, and a flexible layout, all of which contribute to a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere.

Upon entering through a small vestibule, you step into a t-shaped hallway that provides access to the stairs and all ground-floor accommodations. Immediately to the left is a spacious family living room, featuring a large bay window and a charming wood-burning stove. Across the hallway lies a generously sized, modern country-style kitchen, equipped with an integrated electric oven, ceramic hob, and a fully tiled splashback. A wide window offers lovely views of the back garden. Off the kitchen, a small utility room houses the oil boiler and provides direct access to the rear garden and driveway. Additionally, a rear door leads to a striking yellow-tiled Swedish sauna room, complete with a shower cubicle and extensive shelving and storage.Returning to the hallway via the kitchen, you’ll find a formal dining room connected to the kitchen by a sliding partition door, with patio doors opening to the rear garden. Adjacent is a contemporary family bathroom, fully tiled, with a separate roll-top bath and a standalone shower. A light tunnel above floods the space with natural illumination, reflecting off the tiles to create a bright, modern ambience. Bedroom 4, a double, is next door with built-in wardrobes. Proceeding clockwise, you reach two of Goodwill’s standout rooms. The first is the family-designated library-a 40 m2 triple-aspect sunroom with a fireplace, striking herringbone flooring, and patio doors leading to an elevated terrace overlooking the rear garden. The sunroom connects seamlessly to the Gathering Room, a dramatic, high-ceilinged space of approximately 45 m2, featuring a distinctive Scottish Baronial-style pepper-pot turret visible from the front elevation. Designed for large social gatherings, the room comfortably accommodates around 30 guests. Back in the hallway, Bedroom 3 is a standard double with no built-in storage. From here, you enter an adjoining, unique walk-in dressing room with four full-height, double-mirrored wardrobes, a separate bath and shower, pedestal basin, WC, and bidet, all fully tiled in dusky pink and grey. A spacious hall cupboard separates Bedroom 3 from Bedroom 5, which is narrower than the other bedrooms but offers dual double wardrobes and a pleasant outlook to the front of the house. This completes the ground floor accommodation.A wooden staircase ascends to the first floor, where you’ll find two spacious double bedrooms. The primary bedroom features velux windows to both the front and rear, a mirrored double wardrobe for storage, and a fully tiled bathroom with a separate bath, shower, and a heated towel rail. The second bedroom, currently used as a study, serves as an ideal work-from-home office with a desk area and multiple electric sockets. However, its generous size and simple layout allow for numerous alternative uses. The hallway between the bedrooms also offers additional cupboard space.Externally, the front of the property features a tarmac driveway for parking and a large stone patio, perfect for placing a table and chairs to enjoy the countryside views. The side driveway leads to a substantial triple garage/workshop, which also boasts a conservatory. The driveway offers ample parking for multiple vehicles. Beneath the library and Gathering Room is a superb basement storage area. The property benefits from oil-fired central heating and uPVC double glazing throughout.A key highlight of the property is its mature rear garden, thoughtfully planted with shrubs, flowering plants, rhododendrons, and Scots Pine. The garden includes a charming wooden summerhouse and a glass greenhouse. From the house, a stone terrace leads down to the rear lawn, which is bordered by lush herbaceous borders, ensuring complete privacy. This secluded setting offers a peaceful, secure environment for relaxation and enjoyment.While Goodwill (346 m2) would benefit from some modern updates, it remains an outstanding large family home, offering genuine flexibility and a layout that seamlessly blends traditional features with contemporary convenience.
