Allandale, Lein Road, Fochabers, IV32 7NW

Built in 1986 and significantly extended in 2008, Allandale has grown into an enormous family home with so much living space to enjoy.

There’s five bedrooms, a dedicated office, large elevated balcony, detached double garage and generous gardens, giving you plenty of flexibility to raise a large family and work from.

The house has enviable position, looking across the neighbouring playing fields and out towards the Moray Firth, but still within easy reach of Fochabers, Mosstodloch and Elgin.

Stepping inside, the entrance vestibule leads into a small hallway before opening into the hub of the home.

The dining hall is a fantastic space with wood flooring, cream painted walls and enough room for a large family dining.

The kitchen sits just off this space and has been fitted with natural timber finish cabinets topped with dark grey worktops.

A five burner gas hob is built into the work surface beneath a matching canopy, while double ovens are integrated into a separate tall unit.

The cream and beige tiled splashbacks complement the cabinets beautifully while ceiling spotlights keep the room bright. A white composite sink sits beneath the window.

The generous amount of worktop and storage space makes this a kitchen that's as practical as it is attractive.

Double glazed doors from the dining hub lead into the lounge, and this is another room that really stands out.

It's a superb size, with plenty of space for several large sofas and additional furniture.

The external wall is almost entirely glazed, filling the room with natural light throughout the day, while French doors open directly onto the decking area outside.

The stone fireplace is an impressive focal point with a stove fixed within, giving the room real character.

Neutral décor, white cornicing and soft light grey carpet makes a room suited to quiet evenings or entertaining friends and family. The home also benefits from a second living space.

Currently used as a family room, the wide window brings in loads of daylight, while the generous size means it could equally become a cinema room, games room or another lounge depending on your family's needs.

There are four bedrooms on the ground floor of this home too. The first is decorated with bright blue walls, softened by a white floral wallpapered feature wall.

Wood effect flooring runs throughout and a built-in wardrobe with white doors provides useful storage.

The second bedroom is another double, decorated with cream walls and a red and white floral feature wall. There’s a built-in wardrobe with timber doors with a radiator fitted alongside.

The wide window allows plenty of natural daylight into the room. Bedroom three currently accommodates bunk beds, making excellent use of the available space.

It has wood laminate flooring, neutral décor, a window overlooking the garden and a useful built-in storage cupboard.

The fourth bedroom sits just off the dining hall and is another generous double room with cream painted walls, light grey carpet and a built-in storage cupboard.

It would also make an excellent guest room if not required as a permanent bedroom.

The shower room on the ground floor has a modern feel thanks to the large marble effect tiles in cream and grey tones.

A generous walk-in shower enclosure fitted with a Triton electric shower fills the far side of the room, while a contemporary vanity unit with a timber effect finish holds a stylish bowl basin above.

The toilet is also built into the unit for a tidy finish.

A separate WC gives busy families additional convenience, with grey painted walls, a grey brick effect wallpapered feature wall, grey wood effect flooring and a modern vanity unit fitted with a basin and black mixer tap.

The utility room gives you even more storage, with cabinets which match the kitchen, together with space and plumbing for laundry appliances, helping to keep the everyday tasks separate from the main living areas.

Beyond the utility is a particularly useful office or studio which is far larger than a typical home office.

Currently decorated with light blue coloured walls and wood effect flooring, it has enough space to accommodate multiple desks, creative work, gym equipment or workshop benches depending on your requirements.

The staircase leads to the first floor where the landing provides you with space for seating or relaxing.

A glazed door from here leads out onto a large balcony which has fabulous views of the Moray Firth. It’s the perfect spot to sit and relax during the warmer months.

On this first floor is the impressive master bedroom.

It's an excellent size, with sloping attic style ceilings, rooflight windows on one side and a large window at the far end that fills the room with natural light.

There's plenty of space for a large bed and additional furniture, while the layout still leaves the room feeling open and comfortable.

The walk-in dressing room is another real luxury, fitted with plenty of hanging rails, shelving and storage that makes excellent use of the available space.

The en-suite bathroom completes the suite perfectly.

A jacuzzi style bath sits beneath the sloping ceiling, while a separate glazed shower enclosure with grey wall tiles provides an excellent speedy alternative.

There's also a modern wash basin, toilet and chrome ladder style heated towel radiator, too.

Outside, the generous gardens wrap around the house, with large areas of lawn together with paved seating areas that are ideal for enjoying the peaceful setting.

The detached double garage offers excellent storage and secure parking, with large driveway space for additional vehicles.

This home has the amount of living space many families are searching for, combined with a peaceful coastal setting that makes it complete.

With so many flexible rooms, generous gardens and open views towards the Moray Firth, it's a home that will comfortably adapt to your family life for many years to come.
