The front door opens into a T shaped reception hallway with three built in storage cupboards. To the left are the sitting room and kitchen and to the right are the bedrooms, while, straight ahead, double doors open into the study area and conservatory. The dark wood flooring of the hallway flows through into the sitting room and kitchen, adding to the feeling of space. The sitting room is open plan with the kitchen, which is cleverly tucked behind the hallway wall so it is not immediately obvious on entering the sitting room. The very modern high spec kitchen has granite work tops and Siemens appliances including an induction hob, extractor hood, two ovens, fridge and freezer. A breakfast bar divides the two areas. The sitting room has a wood burning stove and a south west facing picture window with a lovely outlook over the garden and a pretty stream which can be lit up at night. With three windows to the front of the property, it is a very light room, which enjoys both morning and afternoon sun. The conservatory is quite substantial. The doors from the hallway open into an area which is fitted out as a study and has French doors opening into the rear garden. The study area connects to the main section of the conservatory which has ample space for a dining table and chairs as well as informal seating. It has a tiled floor and electrically operated Sanderson fitted blinds. Two of the three double bedrooms have fitted wardrobes and both the master and guest bedroom have beautifully appointed en suite shower rooms. The master bedroom’s shower room is in wet room style with underfloor heating. The family bathroom has also been recently refitted and has a bath with Mira shower above. Craigton Smiddy is set in charming grounds which are sheltered by some magnificent mature trees. The majority of the grounds lie to the rear of the property and have been extensively landscaped by the present owners and there is a free-standing shed with power. Behind the cottage tiered lawns climb towards a belt of mature trees which adjoin open countryside. Around the gardens perennials abound and provide wonderful seasonal colour.
