Attractively refurbished three or four bedroom / three bathroom detached property, in convenient central Lerwick location by the hospital, doctors surgery and Bell’s Brae school, and within walking distance of Commercial Street shops, the Town Hall, library & park, and also a supermarket.

The property was completely gutted in 2007 and has been re-lined, re-wired, re-plumbed, and new hardwood double glazed doors fitted along with new double glazed windows (except where already double glazed).

The kitchen and all three bathrooms are new and economical District Heating central heating has been installed.

Redecoration with neutral colours throughout has created a particularly light & airy feel to the ‘walk-into’ interior.

In addition to the three bedrooms (the largest of which is on the ground floor along with the main bathroom), and the three bath / shower rooms (one en-suite), there is also a bay-windowed sittingroom, separate dining room / study / bedroom 4, attractive re-fitted kitchen with breakfast bar & integral gas hob, double oven, fridge & freezer, plus a good-sized fitted utility room.

Good-sized walled garden with brick paved off-street parking.
