3 bed detached bungalow for sale

Moray Drive, Inverness IV2

Sitting on Moray Drive in Balloch, this three bedroom detached bungalow has a simple, single level layout with its own driveway, garage and gardens. It’s the sort of home that will suit a wide range of buyers looking for a home in a quiet area within easy reach of Inverness.

From the front, the house has a lawned area which sits neatly behind a low wall with shrubs and plants adding a splash of colour. There’s a paved driveway to the side which leads straight up to the garage, giving plenty of space for parking. An access gate, set between the garage and side of the house, provides access to the rear garden.

You enter the home through a small front porch, enclosed with large wraparound windows that look out over the front garden. It creates a warm and welcoming first impression as you step inside. From here, a door leads through into the hallway which has light coloured walls helping to keep it feeling open as you move through the home.

The living room sits to the front of the home and features a large window that looks out over the front garden, bringing in plenty of daylight throughout the day. The room is arranged around a feature fireplace set within a stone surround along one wall, creating a clear focal point and a natural place to gather. The size allows for a full suite of furniture without the space feeling crowded, with room for additional pieces along the walls. The décor is kept simple, allowing the light and layout to do the work, making it a comfortable, easy space to settle into for everyday living.

The kitchen and dining room sits to the rear of the home and offers a really generous footprint. It’s arranged in a classic u-shape, with plenty of worktop space and a clearly defined space for a dining table alongside. The units are an older traditional design, finished in a soft cream tone with timber trim and matching worktops. There’s a tiled splashback in earthy green and brown tones that add warmth and character. There’s a built-in oven, hob with extractor and space for a dishwasher. The size of the room gives real scope for a more modern redesign if desired. A door leads through to the rear porch, which is used as a utility style space, keeping laundry appliances separate from the main kitchen area.

The first of the three bedrooms is a comfortable double, positioned to take in good natural light from the window with a radiator positioned below. The space is arranged around fitted furniture, including integrated wardrobes and overhead storage, along with a built-in dressing area that keeps everything neatly organised. The walls are finished in a soft neutral tone, creating a calm backdrop that’s easy to personalise.

The second bedroom is another double, finished with a mix of soft neutral tones and a bold feature wall in a deep purple shade that adds warmth. There’s space for a double bed along with additional furniture, while built-in storage is provided through an integrated wardrobe with timber doors, keeping the layout practical and uncluttered.

The third bedroom is a single room, currently set up with a bed beneath the window and space for additional furniture on the opposite wall. The décor is kept light with neutral tones, helping the room feel bright throughout the day. A built-in wardrobe with timber doors provides storage. It’s a flexible space that could work just as well as a home office, study or hobby room depending on your needs.

Stepping outside, the garden is laid out with a good balance of lawn and planting areas. A section of lawn sits to one side, bordered by established plants and raised beds that bring colour through the seasons. To the other side, a more open area has been used for growing, with space for vegetables or fruit if desired. A paved path runs alongside the property, linking the front and rear and providing easy access around the home, while a seating area offers a quiet spot to sit and enjoy the surroundings. The boundaries are clearly defined with a mix of walling and mature hedging, giving a good sense of privacy without feeling enclosed.

This is one of those homes where the potential is immediately clear the moment you walk through the door. The layout works, the space is there and there’s the chance to shape it into something that really suits how you want to live. Add in the privacy of the garden, the practicality of the garage and driveway and the convenience of the location, and you’ve got a home that makes a lot of sense in all the right ways. Homes like this don’t hang around long, so if you can see yourself making it your own, now’s the time to come and have a look. Contact Hamish Homes to arrange your private viewing today.
