About
Immaculately presented, thoughtfully upgraded and ready to move straight into, this exceptional detached family home delivers stylish, versatile living in one of Elgin's most sought-after residential locations.
The attractive stone frontage creates an excellent first impression, complemented by a generous lock-block driveway providing off-street parking for two vehicles, landscaped front gardens and an integral garage with excellent conversion potential.
A welcoming entrance hall gives access to the ground floor accommodation, with a staircase rising to the first floor and a useful understair storage cupboard.
The beautifully decorated lounge is a superb living space, centred around a striking media wall and enhanced by French doors opening directly onto the rear garden, allowing natural light to flood the room.
Undoubtedly the heart of the home is the stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and family area.
Bathed in natural light from dual-aspect windows, Velux rooflights and French doors, this impressive space has been carefully designed for modern family life as well as entertaining.
The contemporary kitchen boasts ample worktop space, quality cabinetry and a breakfast bar, while the adjoining dining and seating area enjoys pleasant views across the garden.
A separate utility room adds valuable storage, laundry facilities and direct external access.
The beautifully finished cloakroom has been completed to an exceptional standard, featuring floor-to-ceiling tiling, a sleek floating vanity unit with countertop wash hand basin, concealed cistern WC, illuminated mirror with integrated lighting and striking brushed gold fixtures and fittings.
The first floor is reached via an attractive mezzanine landing leading to five well-proportioned bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The spacious main bedroom enjoys a walk-in wardrobe together with a stylish en-suite shower room.
Three further double bedrooms, two benefiting from built-in wardrobes, are accompanied by a comfortable single bedroom, ideal as a nursery, dressing room or home office.
Completing the accommodation is a family bathroom fitted with a four-piece suite incorporating a bath and separate shower enclosure.
A standout feature is the converted garage, accessed from the utility room.
Currently arranged as two highly versatile rooms offering excellent storage, the space would equally suit use as a home office, gym, hobby room, playroom or cinema room.
With the original up-and-over garage door still retained, it could easily be reinstated as a traditional garage if desired.
Outside, the enclosed rear garden enjoys an excellent level of privacy and is predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by mature trees and established planting.
A raised decking area creates the perfect setting for outdoor dining, entertaining or simply relaxing, while gated access is available from both sides of the home.
Further highlights include uPVC double glazing, gas central heating, high-quality modern fixtures and fittings, contemporary internal doors throughout and the option for the home to be purchased fully furnished by separate negotiation, making it a genuine turnkey opportunity.
Birnie Drive enjoys a convenient position within easy reach of everyday amenities.
Elgin offers an excellent selection of primary and secondary schools, supermarkets, independent shops, cafés, restaurants and leisure facilities, including Elgin Golf Club, Moray Leisure Centre and Cooper Park.
The city also benefits from rail connections to Inverness and Aberdeen, while the A96 provides straightforward commuting throughout Moray and beyond.
The current owner has advised that factor charges apply. Should you proceed with the purchase of this home, full details should be verified by your solicitor.
