Contemporary Detached Three-Bedroom Bungalow With Master En-Suite, Garden And Solar Panels

Set within a modern residential development, 31 Bracken Road is a detached three-bedroom bungalow offering easy, single-level living in a quiet Alness location. Built in 2021, the property benefits from central heating, solar panels and stylish interior finishes throughout.
To the front, a neatly kept lawn and private driveway set a lovely first impression, with a pathway leading to the main entrance. When you enter the home, you’re welcomed by a bright hallway with neutral walls, ceiling spotlights and clean white detailing on the doors, frames and skirtings. Wooden flooring runs through the hall and into the living areas, creating a warm and cohesive feel as you move through the home.
The first room off the hallway on the right is the kitchen and dining room, an inviting open-plan space that balances practicality with comfort. The designer kitchen features sleek cashmere cabinets with wood trim and slim chrome handles, paired with wood-toned worktops and kickboards for a warm, modern finish. Integrated appliances include an oven, hob, extractor fan, dishwasher, and there’s space and plumbing for a washing machine. A one and a half granite sink with drainer sits beneath a window looking out to the back garden and a tiled floor in grey tones keeps the space easy to clean. The dining area can comfortably accommodate an eight-place setting, with French doors that open directly to the garden and flood the room with natural light.

Directly opposite, across the hallway, is the living room, a spacious and calm room with wooden flooring and soft, neutral walls. Three side-by-side windows at the front of the house keep the space bright throughout the day. There’s plenty of room for sofas, media units and furniture, making it an ideal setting for relaxing or entertaining.
The main bedroom sits at the rear of the home and includes a built-in double wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors, neutral walls, a soft dark carpet and a large window with a radiator beneath. There’s more than enough room for a king-size bed and additional furniture. The en-suite shower room boasts a sleek shower cubicle lined with modern grey-toned tiling, a wash-hand basin and a neatly positioned toilet. A chrome towel radiator keeps the room warm and towels dry while a window to the gable end brings in natural light and ventilation, enhancing the comfort of the en-suite.
The second bedroom is another double with soft dark-coloured carpet, a built-in double wardrobe and a large double window. It’s well-proportioned, with space for a double bed and storage. The third bedroom is slightly smaller, but still large enough to be used as a guest room, home office or nursery. It also has dark carpet, a built-in double wardrobe with mirrored sliding doors and a radiator beneath a single window.
The main bathroom continues the clean, modern styling with a full-size bath and overhead shower, enclosed by a side screen. Dark grey toned tiles around the bath area creates an eye-catching contrast against the white painted walls. A white vanity unit with a dark grey top houses the wash-hand basin, with a neatly positioned toilet beside, completing the space with a contemporary finish.

Outside, the rear garden is enclosed with tall timber fencing, offering privacy and a safe, secure setting for children or pets. Mostly laid to lawn, it’s a well-kept and easy-to-manage space with scope for seating, planting or play. A small shed sits neatly in the corner, providing handy storage for garden tools or equipment. To the front, there’s a private driveway for off-street parking and a lawned section that frames the property nicely.

The home benefits from double glazed UPVC windows and doors with solar panels installed on the roof to support energy efficiency. Heating is provided via a gas boiler feeding a system of water-filled radiators, with hot water understood to be supplied by a cylinder in the loft space. Smoke, heat and carbon monoxide detectors are also in place for added peace of mind.

Smartly presented and thoughtfully laid out, 31 Bracken Road offers modern single-level living in a quiet, well-connected neighbourhood. With three bedrooms, a bright kitchen/diner, private garden and the efficiency of solar panels, it’s an ideal choice for first-time buyers, downsizers or anyone seeking a manageable, move-in-ready home.
