Property description

Simply gorgeous! This tucked in gem of a property has the best of both worlds, a quiet position with its main entrance on Viewpark Road but also being positioned on the site of a former bakery and having the original cart entrance leading from double timber doors on the High Street through a private vennel into the courtyard offering a really convenient position and off-street parking. This lovely property has so much to offer. Beautifully converted and presented, retaining lots of charm and character, the property is a 4-bed detached character cottage, with a lovely courtyard garden, parking in its private vennel and situated in a superb location from which to enjoy all the bustling town of Biggar has to offer.

Oozing with original character evident from the outset on entering from Viewpark Road through the vestibule into the lounge area, this is a delightful property at every turn. Steps lead down into the lounge which is beautiful, with a beamed ceiling and a stone fireplace. Through to the kitchen this is another lovely area with a patio door looking out to the courtyard, well equipped with country style wall and base units there is also ample space for dining and appliances. Off the lounge through to the rear hall this area could work really well for extended family or guests. The hallway offers a great space which has in the past worked well as a study area, there is a large boot room/store cupboard and a shower room with a large shower enclosure with mains shower, pedestal wash hand basin and w.c and tiled floor and part tiled walls. There is also a sitting room which could work equally well as a fourth bedroom to the end of the hallway which has patio doors to the courtyard.

On the upper floor the hallway offers great storage with a large walk-in cupboard, there are also the three lovely double bedrooms and the recently refurbished bathroom which has a modern suite consisting of a bath with over bath mains and handheld shower, stylish wash hand basin set on a vanity unit and a w.c.

Externally the enclosed courtyard exudes lots of charm and gives a lovely spot to enjoy the outdoors with parking in the vennel if wished.

An absolute gem of a property offering something quite unique in town and a tucked away private location.

The bustling High Street boasts an excellent range of general stores, speciality retail outlets, cafes and restaurants. Biggar has a golf course, boating pond and tennis courts, along with well-patronised bowling and rugby clubs. Whatever your interest there are various clubs and associations ranging from bridge to theatre workshop, music to rambling, as well as the prize-winning Biggar and Upper Clydesdale Museum.
