A traditional three-bedroom stone cottage set in a generous, well-established front garden with fruit trees and multiple seating areas. The house retains period charm—exposed stone, slate roof and a feature multifuel burner—while offering practical living spaces including a large kitchen, pantry and flexible upstairs open-plan room for a study or hobby area.
Positioned in quiet Alves, this semi-rural home is a short walk from the primary school and within easy drive of Elgin and Forres for fuller amenities. Private rear parking for two cars (shared driveway) and an enclosed garden with shed, wood store and mature planting provide good outdoor space for a family or gardener.
Practical details: the property is freehold, heated by an LPG boiler (serviced annually), has one bathroom and generally standard ceilings and fittings. Broadband speeds are slow and the local area records higher deprivation indices; the house may suit buyers seeking countryside character and scope to upgrade utilities or improve connectivity. The asking price reflects a modest reduction from the home report value.
