Family life in Montgarrie

An immaculate interior and lovely location, this spacious bungalow could well be your new home in time for Christmas.

Corrichie can be found at Montgarrie near Alford and with four bedrooms it’s the perfect family pad.

It’s no secret that openplan living is the way forward, and the lounge come sun room will clearly be the heart of the home.

This fabulous space could be used both for entertaining and family time thanks to its versatility, and its purpose will change with the seasons.

Come the summer months, you can look out over the gardens and bask in the rays in the sun lounge but in winter you can enjoy the open fire.

There is even a snug area to the rear of the lounge where you can escape with a good book, although it would also make an excellent play zone for the kids.

The dining kitchen is also impressive and offers great space for big get together’s.

The kitchen itself has ample work unit space and integrated appliances, while the dining area has access to the garden via patio doors.

You’ll be able to chat to guests as you cook and contrasting colours help to make the most of this room.

Head through to the master bedroom which has a luxurious en suite with walk-in double shower.

Double doors from the bedroom lead out to the patio, so you can indulge in an alfresco glass of wine before bed once the weather gets warmer.

There are three further double bedrooms, one of which enjoys the comfort of an en suite shower room and all of which benefit from built-in wardrobes offering superb storage space.

A study will make an excellent home office but could be turned into a lovely nursery.

Completing the accommodation is the family bathroom which has been fitted with a three-piece suite and separate shower enclosure.

The gardens of Corrichie have been designed with low maintenance in mind, and the rear garden has been paved and has a raised chipping area.

This has the benefit of being easy to keep on top of for those who aren’t keen on gardening, but could be transformed into a green oasis due to the space on offer.

To the front of the property is a driveway and detached double garage.

Montgarrie is only a short drive from the thriv- ing village of Alford where there are plenty of amenities, from good schools to quirky independent shops.

Offers should be made in the region of more than £260,000.
