Behind the living room is the kitchen situated to the rear of the house and enjoying a dual aspect with windows to the north and west, the glazed door and window to the west affording a glimpse over to Clickimin Loch between the houses opposite. There are some fitted units including a sink and cooker hood although replacement units would be desirable.

Upstairs the landing, which is lit by a window to the front of the house, leads to three good-sized double bedrooms and what was previously a toilet although the fittings have since been removed but potentially could be reinstalled although prospective purchasers should satisfy themselves in this regard. A hatch with pull-down ladder provides easy access to the floored loft space.
