This amazing six bedroom detached home in Brodick on the Isle of Arran is now on the market for offers over £375,000.
Rothwell Lodge is an architect designed, generous home built in 2009 and lies within walking distance of the island ferry terminal .
The lodge was previously run as a top-rated guesthouse and could be set up as one again - or make an ideal family home.
The main house enjoys five bedrooms, a large living room with a balcony, a dining kitchen, and three bathrooms, whilst there is a one-bedroom self-contained apartment on the ground-floor ideal for live-in relatives, older children or as a holiday/Airbnb rental.
Although a well-maintained and loved home/business over the years, the house would now benefit from a degree of modernisation and redecoration, allowing the new owner to put their own stamp on a fantastic home.
The main home is accessed via the large kitchen, where ample space is provided for a seated dining area, and wall and base cabinets are accompanied by workspace and integrated appliances comprising a double oven, a hob, and an extractor hood.
In the neighbouring living room, a flexible floorspace is provided for arrangements of comfortable lounge furniture, with a warming multi-fuel stove creating an ideal focal point.
The living room opens out onto a balcony with space for outdoor furniture and fabulous views encompassing the Firth of Clyde and Goatfell.
Also found on this level of accommodation are two bedrooms (including the principal which is accompanied by built-in storage and an en-suite shower room), a family bathroom, and a large dining hallway.
On the second floor, you will find a further three bedrooms and another shower room, leading off an airy landing which could comfortably accommodate a study/home office area.
Bedrooms four and five on this floor could be opened into one large bedroom/studio, as originally intended.
The self-contained apartment, which is accessed via its own external entrance or by an internal staircase which could be used or locked as required, comprises an entrance porch and hall with built-in storage, an open-plan kitchen/living room, a bedroom with storage, and a wet room.
The apartment requires a complete re-fit, however this offers an exciting opportunity for the new owner to design it exactly as they wish.
The main house and apartment are both kept warm by an oil-fired central heating system (with both areas able to be controlled independently owing to two heating circuits) and benefit form double-glazed windows.
Externally, the property is accompanied by low-maintenance garden area to the rear with decking and raised beds, whilst excellent private parking is provided by an attached single garage and a multi-car driveway.
