2 Bedroom Detached House

This two bedroom bungalow, set within the village of Halkirk, is a great little find. With two bedrooms, large living spaces and generous front and rear gardens, it’s a home that gives buyers plenty of flexibility to make their own.

The kitchen dining room is positioned at the front and is a large space with clear potential for further redesign or updating depending on your wishes. It’s currently fit with white cabinets with curved wood handles, paired with white tiled splashbacks and wood effect laminate flooring. The stainless steel sink sits directly beneath the front facing window, and there’s spots for appliances to be installed. At the far end there is room for a dining table and chairs with a radiator fitted nearby.

The lounge sits at the rear of the property and feels bright and open thanks to the wide rear facing window, with a second deep set side window to the side. Light grey painted walls have a slim white dado rail detail running around the upper part of the room, while wood effect flooring keeps the overall look clean. The decorative Fyfe stone fireplace surround immediately draws attention and gives the room real character, with tartan wallpaper fitted around the chimney breast adding a more traditional touch. The fire opening itself has been boarded, giving future owners options should they wish to create a new focal feature in the space.

The bathroom has been modernised in a contemporary style. Grey wood effect flooring works well with the light wall finishes, while built in cabinets along one wall provides excellent storage beneath and around the sink area. The toilet cistern is neatly concealed within matching units. The large shower enclosure includes an electric shower with wetwall panelling inside for a tidy, low maintenance finish.

Bedroom one is a comfortable double with patterned wallpaper and a light carpet underfoot. A radiator is fitted near the door and the shape and size leaves good flexibility for additional furniture. The second bedroom is another double, again with patterned wallpaper, light carpet and a large window overlooking the outside space. A built in storage cupboard adds practicality while the layout leaves good floor space for bedroom furniture.

Outside, the scale of the grounds is one of the standout features of the property. The large gravel drive at the front provides extensive parking for multiple cars. The rear garden is also generous, sloping away from the home. The lawned garden sections create an open feel with plenty of space for children to play or pets to roam. Boundaries are formed through a mix of walls and fencing, with a small shed positioned to the side for storage.

For buyers searching for a manageable bungalow with generous outdoor space, flexible rooms and the chance to continue improving over time, this is a property with genuine potential. The amount of parking and garden ground alone makes it stand out so early viewing is recommended.
