Summary - 56, QUEEN STREET, ALVA FK12 5EJ
Two double bedrooms on one level, easy living
Set at the foot of the Ochil Hills, this single-storey semi-detached bungalow offers compact, all-on-one-level living suited to first-time buyers, downsizers and landlords. The home has two double bedrooms, a bright lounge, fitted kitchen and a shower room — a straightforward layout that is easy to manage and maintain. Gas central heating and full double glazing provide year-round comfort, while EPC C72 and Council Tax Band C keep running costs reasonable.
Externally the property is low-maintenance: a pebbledash front with paved stones, mature shrubs, a shared driveway providing off-street parking and a rear shed for storage. The accommodation is small (approx 54m2 / 581 sqft) and will reward buyers prepared to update finishes and personalise interiors — there is clear scope to modernise the kitchen and bathroom to increase comfort or rental appeal.
This home sits close to local shops, schools and community amenities in Alva, with good road and rail links into Stirling and beyond. The vendor notes potential rental income of approx £900–£950 pcm, making it a practical buy-to-let or starter-home option. Be aware the wider area is described as having hampered aspiration and higher deprivation indices; this is reflected in pricing and should be considered when assessing long-term investment or resale prospects.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the practical single-level layout and the setting beneath the hills. The property is offered Freehold and presents a straightforward purchase for anyone seeking a modest, low-maintenance home or a rental that needs modest updating.
