Newly renovated three-bedroom detached bungalow
This newly renovated, three-bedroom detached bungalow offers comfortable single‑storey living on a generous, level plot with expansive countryside views. The layout includes a bright lounge with a feature log-burning stove, a modern integrated kitchen with dining space, a cosy conservatory, three double bedrooms (master with ensuite and fitted wardrobes) and a contemporary family bathroom — all arranged for easy, ground‑floor accessibility.
Practicality is a strength: the property is freehold, has double glazing, oil‑fired central heating, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, plus a long driveway, garage and carport for secure off‑road parking. The landscaped rear garden with paved patio and low‑maintenance chippings to the front make outdoor upkeep straightforward while preserving the open outlook across rolling pasture and mature woodland.
Location suits buyers who prioritise rural calm with commuter links: Rigside is about 1.5 miles from the M74 and roughly 8 miles from Lanark, making smaller towns and regional centres accessible. The bungalow sits adjacent to Douglas Water Golf Club and benefits from a quiet village setting.
Buyers should note the wider context: the immediate locality is recorded as very deprived and classified under challenged/ageing rural community profiles, which can affect local services, demographics and long‑term investment dynamics. The property has strong cosmetic refurbishment but retains oil heating and single‑storey bungalow proportions — appealing for accessible living but with limited scope for vertical extension. Overall, this is a freshly updated, roomy rural home for families or those seeking single‑level living with good connectivity to the motorway.
