McEwan Fraser Legal is delighted to present Helenslea Cottage to the market. Number 24 is a three bedroom semi-detached cottage, a rare opportunity home offering generous space, modern upgrades and huge scope for personalisation. This is a property that gives buyers the chance to put their own stamp on a substantial layout, while still enjoying fresh decor, new flooring and a move-in-ready feel. Stepping through the porch into the main hallway, the home opens up with a bright and welcoming feel. The ground floor offers a wonderfully flexible living arrangement, beginning with the spacious lounge at the front of the home. The room enjoys excellent natural light, fresh grey carpeting and crisp white walls that create a calm and adaptable backdrop for any style of furnishings. Just off the lounge, glazed double doors lead into the large dining room, a superb second public space ideal for hosting, family life or even a future open-plan redesign if desired. This is one of the most versatile rooms in the home and carries a lovely sense of flow. From here you access the modern kitchen, fitted with white cabinetry, generous worktops and dual-aspect windows that make the room feel open and bright. This is a kitchen that works well now but also offers plenty of potential for enhancement in the future. The ground floor is completed by a generous double bedroom overlooking the rear garden and a contemporary family bathroom, fully tiled with a shower over the bath. This layout works perfectly for a wide range of buyers, particularly those looking for future-proofing or multigenerational flexibility. Upstairs, the landing leads to two further bedrooms, each with excellent floor space, fresh finishes and skylight windows that bring in wonderful natural light. These rooms offer fantastic long-term potential as children's bedrooms, guest rooms or dedicated workspaces. Outside, the property continues to impress. To the front, you have a private driveway and a neat, low-maintenance garden that sets the tone on arrival. To the rear, the garden stretches out generously, offering a brilliant blend of usable space and long-term potential. There is a lawn for everyday outdoor living, a decked patio area that works beautifully for summer dining and socialising, and at the very bottom of the garden sits a substantial outbuilding. This is a home that offers both immediate comfort and future possibilities. Whether you are upsizing, looking for a project you can evolve over time or simply want a spacious semi-detached home with a fantastic garden and great versatility, this cottage delivers a rare opportunity in the current market. Early viewing is highly recommended. Electricity Supply: British Gas Water Supply: Scottish water Sewerage: Scottish water Broadband / Mobile Coverage: Sky, Full 5G Coverage
