Now here is something completely different! This tucked in gem of a character property, converted and positioned on the site of a former bakery has its main entrance on Viewpark Road but also the original cart entrance of the bakery leading from double timber doors on the High Street through a private vennel into the courtyard.  Beautifully converted and presented, the property is a charming 3 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 fireplace with an open fire.  Through to the kitchen this is another lovely area with a patio door looking out to the courtyard, well equipped with wall and base units, gas hob and electric oven, there is also ample space for dining.  Off the lounge through to the rear hall this is a great space which has in the past worked well as a study area, there is a beautifully presented shower room with a large shower enclosure with mains shower, tiled floor and part tiled walls.  There is also a really useful large storeroom to the end of the hallway, previously a garage which has been floored and lined and offers lots of potential for various uses subject to full conversion and consents. 

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 beautiful bathroom which has a modern suite consisting of a bath with over bath mains shower, wall hung wash hand basin and a w.c. and is well finished with a tiled floor and walls.

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.
