Nestled within approximately 12 acres of private land that stretches to the picturesque dunes and shoreline of the Bay of Sowerdie, this stone home spans 173 sq m and presents a unique opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with substantial renovation potential. The heart of the residence features a spacious open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area that extends nearly 390 sq ft. This light-filled space boasts exposed beams, high ceilings, and an impressive wall of glass that provides stunning views of a 23-meter reflecting pond and the loch beyond. Its inviting atmosphere is complemented by a feature fireplace, perfect for both social gatherings and family life.
The principal bedroom offers tranquility with its skylight and direct outdoor access, while three additional bedrooms—including a double with an en-suite shower—afford versatility for various uses such as guest accommodations or home offices. A contemporary family bathroom paired with a utility room enhances practicality.
Although extensively renovated around 2012—boasting underfloor heating, double glazing, and an EPC rating of C—the property still holds considerable scope for further enhancements, especially in areas like landscaping or optimizing the outbuildings. The surrounding lands include two enclosed fields suitable as paddocks, along with a stable equipped with water and power. There's also ample space in a large garage and an adaptable building that could be transformed into a workshop or art studio.
Adding to its appeal is the installed wind turbine which generates an annual income of approximately £6,000 to £8,000 through feed-in tariffs—creating an asset that reduces electricity costs while boosting overall investment value. Galilee combines character, privacy, and idyllic coastal connectivity in a community well-connected to Orkney Mainland.
