3 bedroom bungalow

DESCRIPTION
The former Ernmenzie steading was converted by the current owners in 2005 to form three properties with all three properties being architect designed. The Stables has open plan living accommodation with a large dining kitchen space leading to the living area and on to the sunroom. The well-equipped kitchen includes an electric hob with extractor fan, double electric oven, integrated fridge freezer and dishwasher. There is a separate utility room which houses the oil-fired boiler, with the controls for the underfloor heating system being in the front hallway. There is also space for a washing machine and vent for a tumble drier and extractor fan. The living area has a gas fire which is now disconnected but could easily be reinstated or a woodburning stove could be installed. The sunroom benefits from its southwest position and enjoys far reaching countryside views. The master bedroom has an ensuite shower room and ample space for furniture. The further 2 double bedrooms are of generous proportions and benefit from built in wardrobes. The loft space has been floored and has electric points and lighting.
Access to the property is via a shared driveway and shared courtyard area with parking. The Stables has an additional private parking area to the side of the property.
