Description

This semi-detached house, located in the picturesque coastal village of Aultbea in Wester Ross, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled on a peninsula that extends into Loch Ewe, the property boasts direct access to the water and breathtaking views of surrounding mountain peaks. A stone jetty is conveniently located nearby, allowing for boating activities with permission from the local fishing association. The west coast of Scotland is renowned for its stunning natural beauty, characterized by sheltered sandy beaches and lush landscapes that invite outdoor enthusiasts. With hills and moorlands in close proximity, residents can enjoy a variety of recreational activities including hiking, climbing, and fishing in nearby hill lochs. Aultbea itself serves as an ideal base for exploring this remarkable region. Local amenities in the village include a general store, post office, hotel, doctor’s surgery, and garage. Families will appreciate the primary school located just a mile away at Bualnaluib, with secondary schooling provided in Gairloch through a free bus service. For further shopping and services, Gairloch, Ullapool, and Dingwall are within reach; Inverness offers all major city conveniences along with its airport connecting to various destinations. Though Sandale has been cherished by the same family for many years, it now requires modernization to unlock its full potential. The layout includes a welcoming sun porch that serves as a year-round sitting area with stunning loch views. The ground floor features a spacious living room adjacent to the kitchen, as well as a bedroom with an en suite WC and separate wet room—perfect for guests or creating additional living space. A home office provides versatility to suit your needs. The upper level accommodates three en suite bedrooms accessed by a split staircase; one is situated at the rear while two overlook the front of the house. With comfortable but dated interiors ripe for renovation and enhancement, this property holds significant promise for those looking to invest in a charming locale that combines scenic beauty with practical amenities.
