Set just a few minutes’ walk from Inverness city centre, this stone-built semi-detached villa combines period character with a convenient town-centre location. High ceilings, original finishings and a dormer provide charm and extra headroom, while gas central heating and double glazing offer everyday comfort. The property is presented in generally good condition but will reward cosmetic updating to maximise value.
Accommodation is flexible: a bright front lounge, a large dining room that could serve as a third bedroom, and a generous kitchen that opens to a low-maintenance, fully enclosed rear deck and patio. Upstairs are two double bedrooms, a small study/box room and a modern shower room. Storage is good for the size, with sizeable cupboards on the landing and an under-stair store.
Practical advantages include fast broadband, nearby primary and secondary schools, and close access to local shops, cafes and transport links. On-street permit parking serves the property, but the front garden is small and space is limited by double yellow lines on the street. The area is marked as having high local professional demographics but also higher deprivation indices, which is relevant for buyers assessing long-term resale or rental potential.
Overall this home will suit a first-time buyer looking for a city-centre base with period character and scope to personalise, or an investor seeking a compact, centrally located rental. Be aware of the compact footprint and limited off-street parking when comparing to suburban alternatives.
