Tucked away in a peaceful area halfway between the centre of Drumnadrochit and the world-famous Urquhart Castle, 5 Balmacaan Road is a two-story family home constructed in 1980.
The property is ready to walk into and is generously sized, with an interior space of 105 m2, and is approached from a front garden leading to a large glazed sunroom serving as a vestibule.
The house has been painted mostly in neutral colours throughout, with the hallway finished with white joinery. Space under the stairs and large cupboards provide additional shape and storage.
An attractively proportioned living room is at the front of the property, and has a hard flooring and one wall finished with paper. A wooden mantelpiece houses a cast iron wood burner with the benefit of a back boiler.
The kitchen dining room has white-fronted wall and floor cabinets, a wood-style worksurface, and tiled walls; the dining area is papered in a bold botanic motif. The ceiling is lined with timber, which is often a feature of properties of this age. The generous kitchen dining room offers a fabulous amount of potential, especially given its proximity to the open-plan, light-filled family room which is accessed via a large archway. The double aspect family room faces south and provides access to a sunny patio.
Upstairs, there are three bedrooms, each decorated in white. These rooms are quite spacious with full-height ceilings. One bedroom has been fitted with a cleverly designed integral bed base allowing for the stairwell behind it.
The bathroom is tiled with a white bath, WC and wash hand basin.
A rear vestibule attached to the kitchen leads to the garden which is laid with concrete paving slabs and enclosed with timber fencing. The garden also includes a small shed and a log store. This garden has fabulous scope as a paved courtyard, especially if fitted with structures, such as a pergola and raised planting areas.
5 Balmacaan Road is a delightful property that does require a little tlc but this is reflected in its remarkable valuation. However, it offers enormous potential, and with some renovation and fresh decoration, it will result a really beautiful rural property in one of Scotland’s most iconic locations. Early viewing is recommended.
