About
Situated in the Raigmore area of Inverness, this two bedroom maisonette benefits from accommodation arranged over two floors.
It’s currently vacant and unfurnished, and would suit someone wanting to buy their first home, someone wanting an affordable property in the city or a buyer looking for a rental opportunity.
The home is part of a residential block with entry to the building through a secure communal entrance.
A staircase leads up to the maisonette itself where inside you’re met with a hallway painted white, with dark grey carpet underfoot.
The simple finish continues through much of the property, giving the rooms a clean starting point for a new owner to decorate in their own way.
The living room is currently decorated in a standout way. One wall is papered in a dark charcoal pattern, while the rest of the room is covered in white brick wall patterns.
A broad three part window stretches across much of the outside wall with an electric heater beneath for warmth. The dark grey carpet continues into here from the hallway.
The room is a good size with plenty of space to arrange a sofa, television and other furniture. Next door, the slim kitchen wraps around three sides of the room.
Light coloured cabinets with curved silver handles are topped with wood effect counters. White square tiles line the wall as splashbacks with the rest of the room also painted white.
Spaces beneath the worktops will allow you to add your own cooking and washing appliances, giving you everything you need to complete the room.
The staircase takes you up to the two bedrooms and bathroom. Bedroom one is decorated simply with white walls and grey carpet, with a cupboard providing built in storage.
Bedroom two is the bigger of the two rooms. White walls and grey carpet continue here, while an electric heater sits neatly against the opposite wall the large window.
The bathroom has a white bath running along one side with an electric shower above and a clear screen fitted.
White tiles are in place around the bath and across the walls behind the toilet and pedestal basin, while a wide frosted window sits above for light and ventilation.
Grey patterned vinyl flooring adds some contrast to an otherwise simple white finish. For someone looking to get onto the property ladder in Inverness, 285 Mackintosh Road is well worth seeing.
The two bedroom layout and city location may also catch the eye of buyers considering a rental property.
It’s vacant now, so contact Hamish Homes to arrange your private viewing and see whether it could be the right fit for you.
