We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
We are delighted to bring to the market this deceptively spacious semi-detached property, conveniently located on the outskirts of Stornoway.
Offering generous accommodation over two levels, the property would benefit from a degree of upgrading and modernisation but presents an excellent opportunity for purchasers to create a comfortable and spacious family home tailored to their own tastes and requirements.
The accommodation is well laid out and comprises an entrance vestibule leading into the hallway, which provides access to the main living areas.
The comfortable lounge offers a welcoming space in which to relax, while the fitted dining kitchen provides ample room for everyday family living and dining.
Also located on the ground floor are a porch, WC and wet room, adding to the practicality and flexibility of the accommodation.
Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms together with a family bathroom, providing comfortable accommodation for a family.
The property is heated by a mixture of electric storage and panel heaters, and all windows are double glazed. Externally, the property enjoys low-maintenance gardens to both the front and rear.
Off-road parking is available to the side of the property, providing additional convenience.
The property is ideally situated within a short drive of Stornoway town centre, where a wide range of amenities, including shops, schools, leisure facilities and other local services, can be found.
The scenic paths and outdoor spaces within the beautiful Lews Castle Grounds are also easily accessible nearby, making this a convenient location for those who enjoy walking and spending time outdoors.
With its generous accommodation, excellent potential and convenient location, this property offers an excellent opportunity for a variety of purchasers, particularly families or those seeking a home they can upgrade and personalise over time.
Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the spacious accommodation, potential and convenient location on offer.
