Blinkbonny is a beautifully presented and generously proportioned five-bedroom detached bungalow. Set within an impressive and private south-facing plot in the peaceful hamlet of Easter Newburn, near Upper Largo, the property enjoys an abundance of natural light, sunshine, and warmth throughout the day. Surrounded by mature landscaped gardens and benefiting from open countryside views, it offers a wonderful balance of space, privacy, and modern comfort.

The accommodation is thoughtfully arranged across a single level, with a central entrance hall providing access to all principal rooms. At the heart of the home is an expansive family and dining area, featuring a fireplace with log-burner, and enhanced by large windows and French doors that open onto the garden, allowing natural light to flood the space while framing the surrounding views. This inviting room flows seamlessly into a bright and airy sunroom, which provides a further reception space and direct garden access.

The fitted kitchen is well appointed with an American Fridge Freezer and dual control electric Aga offering both style and practicality. The separate Utility Room is very practical with a double sized hot water tank and controls for the newly installed Air Source Heat Pump and Solar Panels meter. The overall layout is ideal for both family life and entertaining. 

Bedroom one is generously sized and benefits from a dressing area with fitted wardrobes leading through to a modern en-suite shower room. A second double bedroom also enjoys fitted storage and en-suite facilities. Two further double bedrooms, each with built-in storage, are served by a well-appointed shower room and a separate family bathroom. The fifth room is currently arranged as a study, offering flexibility for home working or additional bedroom accommodation if required.

Externally, the property is surrounded by extensive, beautifully landscaped gardens, thoughtfully designed with lawn, mature planting and seating areas, creating a tranquil outdoor setting. In addition, there is a detached double garage, a separate external building currently used as a gym, and a driveway providing ample parking.
