Elm Cottage is a lovely family home with generous accommodation. It is quietly situated beside Inverness Golf Course, with a large secure garden fully planted with trees, shrubs and flowers.Accommodation includes a large and airy sitting room with domed ceiling, french doors and an open fire. Large dining room focused around a bay window opening onto the garden. There are 4 double bedrooms: two on the ground floor (one with doors to the garden and an ensuite shower room), and two further bedrooms and a bathroom upstairs. In addition, there is a toilet and utility room off the front porch, an attic room and very generous storage space.Culcabock Avenue is a cul-de-sac and is therefore quiet with no through traffic. With the grounds of Drakies House on one side and the golf course on the other, the area feels a million miles from the hustle and bustle of city life. There is generous on-street parking and also a drive-in area suitable for parking and space for a garage.Elm Cottage, which dates back some 200 years, was extensively renovated and extended in the 1980s by its current owners, creating a much larger house while retaining the original cottage appearance and feel. Ground floor rooms were opened up, and a large bay window dining space and french doors were added to provide generous amounts of light. A dormer extension allowed for a new upstairs bathroom as well enlarging and lightening the two upstairs bedrooms. Insulation has been installed in all walls and roof spaces, gas central heating was put in and electrical wiring renewed. All renovations and new building work have been carefully designed to echo the old vernacular of the cottage and its surroundings, albeit with modern comforts inside.The garden has been designed to encourage wildlife and there is a pond and small waterfall in the back garden. The whole property attracts large amounts of sunlight indoors and out, with a number of seating areas following the sun right around the garden.Culcabock Village has a real sense of its own history and for a long time took pride in being independent of Inverness. It is now, of course, part of the city and the old gas lamps villagers raised funds for and erected themselves in the 1920s are long gone. However, even today, although close to the city centre, the village retains its own character making it a unique location.
