This substantial Victorian villa, located in the picturesque village of Rosemarkie, boasts breathtaking views over the beach and Moray Firth. Constructed around 1901, Shandon retains its period charm with features such as deep skirtings, intricate coving, and 'servant' bells, while also requiring a degree of renovation to unlock its full potential. The property is primarily double glazed and equipped with oil-fired central heating complemented by several open fires, enhancing its character further. With spacious storage options and well-proportioned rooms, it offers an excellent opportunity for families or investors looking for a project in a desirable setting.
The accommodation includes a kitchen fitted with base and wall-mounted units, an electric hob and ovens, and a dishwasher; a dining/family room with an ornate open fire; utility room with plumbing for laundry; multiple lounges that feature bay windows to take advantage of the stunning views; and a sunroom that opens out onto the garden. Upstairs are four double bedrooms and a family bathroom boasting both jacuzzi and electric showers. The property also has access to two attic rooms via a static stairway that could serve as additional bedrooms or hobby spaces with the right permissions.
Externally, Shandon is situated on generous grounds with beautifully maintained gardens featuring mature landscaping. A lovely paved patio area offers an ideal spot for outdoor entertaining while enjoying the coastal sounds. The driveway leads to ample parking space including a spacious double garage/workshop complete with power supply.
Residents of Rosemarkie have access to local amenities including shops, cafes, restaurants, golf courses, and outdoor activities such as dolphin watching at Chanonry Point. Inverness city center is just a short commute away providing extensive services along with excellent transport links.
