Having been in continuous family ownership since 1980 with only four prior owners throughout its history, this home has received ongoing maintenance and improvements. While it now requires some modernization to fully realize its potential, it retains many original features typical of its era—spacious rooms adorned with intricate cornicing and fine woodwork that could be restored or enhanced.
The accommodation spans three floors and presents opportunities for reconfiguration to create separate living spaces within both the rear wing bedroom suite and basement areas. This flexibility could be particularly beneficial for multi-generational living or rental purposes. Overall, this property represents not just a home but also an investment opportunity with significant upside in one of Scotland's picturesque villages.
