Ken MacDonald & Co are delighted to showcase this exceptional five bedroom home nestled in the picturesque village of South Shawbost. This charming property constructed around 2009, has recently undergone a stunning interior revamp, resulting in a contemporary and sophisticated ambiance, complete with cherry and oak flooring throughout. The unique design features an eye-catching turret that adds personality and character from the outset. The spacious accommodation spans over two floors, offering a functional layout for everyday living. The ground floor welcomes you with a large and modern open plan kitchen that seamlessly connects to the adjoining dining area, arguably the heart of the home. The lounge is a highlight, with the turret design creating a curved space that not only adds an aesthetic dimension but also offers wider views of the surrounding countryside and sea views. The well-designed study offers a quiet and productive environment that is ideal for those with a work-from-home lifestyle or would make the perfect 5th bedroom. A tastefully decorated shower room and a cleverly integrated utility room make efficient use of space, enhancing the practicality of the ground floor. On the first floor, you will find the master bedroom, which benefits from the turret design, allowing an abundance of natural light to flood the room. The three additional bedrooms on this floor are all a respectable size, ensuring for ample personal space. The bathroom features a classic freestanding bath as well as a separate shower unit. The elegant minimalistic style of the interior provides a blank canvas for the prospective purchaser to make personal touches to make it their own. The newly installed UPVC windows are fitted throughout and the home is heated by way of oil fired central heating. Also included in the sale is the tenancy of Croft 40 South Shawbost, extending to approximately 4.8 acres. On the croft is a fully refurbished outbuilding/workshop with electricity and small vehicle access. The sellers have received planning approval for the addition of a polycrub, providing the prospective purchaser with the option of developing and serving horticultural purposes. The property is set off the main road, in a quiet and peaceful spot with unspoiled views over Loch a’Bhaile. The garden grounds are enclosed by an elegant white picket fence and the picturesque location can be fully appreciated from the luxury of the 6-person hot tub situated in the back garden (available by separate negotiation). The property is within a short driving distance of the beautiful golden sandy beaches of Dalmore and Dalbeg, popular for surfing and camping. The village of South Shawbost is approximately 19 miles from Stornoway town centre where amenities include supermarkets, leisure centre, primary and secondary schools. *
