Description

This period farmhouse presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. Nestled in an attractive location with picturesque views across the water and rolling hills, this three-bedroom home is constructed from solid stone and is set on a single accessible level. The interior features high ceilings and traditional sash windows, which infuse the living spaces with natural light. The layout includes a bright and inviting sitting room centered around a sandstone fireplace, creating a cozy atmosphere. Each of the three double bedrooms comes with delightful views towards the Cromarty Firth, providing a peaceful retreat. The kitchen, equipped with wooden cabinetry and essential appliances, offers good functionality and could benefit from modern updates. An adjoining utility room adds convenience with extra storage and access to the garden. Outside, the property includes ample parking and multiple outbuildings at the rear, which hold considerable potential for redevelopment or expansion, subject to planning approvals. This aspect makes it particularly appealing for investors or those wishing to increase their living space. Surrounding the farmhouse are well-maintained gardens featuring grassy areas and terraced gravel spaces that provide both beauty and utility. A former orchard adds character, filled with various fruit-bearing trees and shrubs. Furthermore, there is an expansive paddock to the northwest that gently slopes toward the banks of the Cromarty Firth – ideal for agricultural use or further development given its graded classification. This property not only offers comfortable living spaces but also presents numerous possibilities for enhancement or extension, making it an appealing option for both personal use or as an investment project in a stunning locale.
