Stunning, detached, modern home in sought after Tornagrain, benefitting from an enticingly spacious and stylish yet eminently practical interior and gardens.
Located on one of Tornagrain's two most prestigious, tranquil streets, this property boasts an almost identical square meterage to its beautiful 4 bed neighbours (133 sqm versus 137 sqm) but offers inhabitants who do not require 4 bedrooms even more room to ‘breathe and be’ with a glorious, triple aspect master suite spanning the width of the house.
This suite features two sets of double mirrored wardrobes and a large, family-sized, window-lit ensuite with a 2 person shower. A rarity in the new-build world and unheard of in Tornagrain. This unusually spacious area currently holds a super king bed and large scale furnishings making it feel hotel-worthy. Two lovely sized double bedrooms with fitted double mirrored wardrobes, one double aspect, complete the upstairs sleeping spaces, while an elegant landing provides the perfect place to scroll, read, or simply unwind and relax!
Downstairs both the double aspect kitchen-diner and the library-look, dining lounge - with French doors opening out onto the patio and beyond to the gorgeous garden - also extend the full width of the home, setting the scene for a luxurious lifestyle which invites to relaxation and refreshment on a daily basis.
A utility room and downstairs WC feature highly on many homeowners’ lists and this has both, handily in separate rooms.
Storage space is essential for efficiently functioning households and, in addition to the double wardrobes in all bedrooms, this property is amply equipped on both floors: there is a deep, top-shelved, doored cupboard in the WC; an understairs cupboard; and a fantastically sized, double-door linen cupboard on the upstairs landing.

And then there’s... the outside!
Think:
- beautiful, mature-hedged front garden with space to sit, sun, and watch the world go by
- private, lock-block, double driveway;
- block built, lockable garage with light and power, currently laid out as an extra hangout space but equally employable as a workshop or hobby area;
- sizable, strikingly modern, composite deck easily accessible from the patio and lounge
- large, elevated patio with a private nook on which to sit and sip a cuppa, or something sparkly
- triple bin store to keep unsightlies appreciably out of view;
- grassed, side area, ideally situated to soak up some midday rays
- a designated area for watching the sun rise with a morning stretch; or the sun set around the fire pit
- a pair of cheer-bringing cherry trees, with space between to sit and enjoy the haven-esque surroundings
And, as if that weren’t enough, a bright, bonus, private section to the side of the house continues the practical-living story; featuring a perfectly proportioned maintenance-free shed for keeping tools and outdoor essentials to hand, and with space to make your own desired additions.
In summary, a curated, cared for, appealing, easily maintainable, front and back garden, professionally landscaped lately to promote a deep sense of delight on returning home each day.
Inside and out, No.11 Laggnagere really is the perfect package for many. Especially those with a discerning eye who appreciate quality and style and would love to move in somewhere where all the hard work has already been done!
From seemingly unloved, unnoticeable duckling to dramatic, head-turning dwelling.
Purchased as a forever home no expense has been spared by the current owners: featuring a combination of existing pale engineered oak flooring, paired with all new, neutral, luxury wool carpets throughout, eco-friendly paints, and high-end designer 'art' on stairs and landing, this gorgeous, interior-designed abode has had thought, time and love lavished on it over the past 12 months.
Personal circumstances, however, mean it will now unexpectedly be its new owners who will reap the real, lasting rewards of the flair and attention to detail displayed and felt both inside and outside this standout property.
Homes like this rarely appear and when they do they fly fast, so it really will be a case of those willing to ‘move’ speedily and decisively who will win this gem! And with Summer beckoning, what a wonderful time of the year to move into a home like this.
