Description
Nestled in a elevated position with breath-taking views of Loch Meiklie and the Glen Affric mountains, Drumalin Lodge is a stunning detached villa offering the opportunity to experience the best of Highland living in contemporary style.
The property is designed to take full advantage of the beautiful views with a distinctive ‘inverted’ layout which priorities main living accommodation on the elevated first floor level. Entering from outside, the property begins with a spectacular vaulted entrance hall with high ceilings, velux windows and archway leading to sitting room off. From here the accommodation naturally leads into an impressive living room with feature wood burning fireplace and Carrara marble surround, the room is flooded with natural light, thanks to ceiling-height bay windows that perfectly frame the stunning landscape. On this level Drumalin Lodge boasts four generously sized bedrooms all with plentiful built in storage, two of which are en-suite with shower, plus a main bathroom with freestanding bath. A well-equipped utility room with internal access to the large double garage completes the first floor accommodation, alongside a handy WC.
The thoughtful layout continues on the ground floor, where an expansive second living room with floor to ceiling windows and multi fuel stove is positioned off a state-of-the-art kitchen. This culinary haven features a range of high-end contemporary fittings, including built-in Bosch appliances, a dishwasher, warming tray, wine cooler, induction hob, LG fridge/freezer and Quooker instant boiling tap. The kitchen is further enhanced by a stylish island illuminated by hanging lights.
The ground floor accommodates a double bedroom with ceiling-height patio doors that open to the beautifully landscaped south facing gardens, offering serene views and direct outdoor access. The en-suite bathroom features both a bath and shower. Completing the ground floor accommodation is an additional WC and a versatile study, ideal for a home office or quiet retreat.
Drumalin Lodge sits within around 0.9 acres of fully enclosed and maintained gardens. The patio provides an ideal setting for alfresco dining and entertaining, surrounded by the tranquil beauty of the gardens and the stunning views of Loch Meiklie. The large gravelled driveway offers ample parking space and the attached double car garage features electric shutters for easy access and added security, plus internal access.
