This substantial single‑storey bungalow sits privately on about 7.5 acres of elevated countryside near Elgin, offering wide rural and woodland views. The home’s generous open‑plan kitchen/living/dining area and two reception rooms provide comfortable space for family life and entertaining, while five bedrooms and multiple bathrooms suit multi‑generational living or regular guests.
Practical benefits include a detached double garage, large driveway, integrated appliances and solar panels contributing to running costs. The property is freehold, presented to a high standard internally and positioned for countryside living with easy access to Elgin’s schools, services and the Moray coast for leisure.
Notable drawbacks are factual and important: broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal only average, which will affect home working and streaming. The local area scores as very deprived and council tax is described as quite expensive — buyers should factor ongoing costs and service access into their plans.
This is a rare opportunity for buyers who prioritise space, privacy and scenic rural living over immediate town convenience. The bungalow’s layout and large plot also offer scope for hobby agriculture, landscaping projects or ancillary buildings, subject to permissions.
