Eilean Arainn, 30 Murray Crescent, Isle of Arran

Situated in an established residential development in the sought-after Arran village of Lamlash, Eilean Arainn is a detached bungalow offering two bedrooms, a generous reception room, a kitchen, and a shower room, with some modern touches and a palette of neutral décor throughout. The property also has good eco credentials, with solar panels and an air-source heat pump. Furthermore, it is accompanied by well-maintained front and rear gardens, a detached single garage, and a private driveway.

An L-shaped hallway (with excellent built-in storage) welcomes you into the home and leads into the reception room on the left. Here, ample space is provided for furniture configurations catering for both relaxation and dining, whilst a large southwest-facing window captures sunny natural light throughout the day. The room also features a fireplace and is neutrally decorated, with a fitted carpet offering optimum comfort underfoot. The property previously had three bedrooms, with the layout reconfigured to make the reception room larger – there is potential for the third bedroom to be reinstated, if desired. The living/dining room benefits from direct access to the kitchen, which is also separately accessible from the hall. The kitchen is fitted with modern wall and base cabinets, accompanied by spacious worktops and an integrated oven and hob, with space also provided for undercounter appliances.

The home’s two double bedrooms are both neutrally decorated, carpeted for comfort, and accompanied by good-sized built-in wardrobes, and they both peacefully overlook the rear garden. Finally, a practical, modern wet room completes the accommodation on offer, comprising a shower area, a WC-suite, a wall-mounted vanity cabinet, and a chrome towel radiator. The home is kept warm by a Samsung air-source heating system, benefits from double-glazed windows, and has solar panels.

Externally, the bungalow features a well-kept front lawn and a rear garden with a spacious, well-maintained lawn. Private parking is provided by a detached single garage and a driveway.
