Highlea is a distinctive detached cottage paired with a traditional stone steading, nestled in the tranquil hamlet of Auchnarrow within the captivating Cairngorms National Park. This property boasts stunning, uninterrupted views over the countryside and the Ladder Hills, making it an ideal canvas for buyers seeking both a charming residence and significant renovation opportunities. The property features a bright vestibule leading into a central hallway that connects to a spacious kitchen designed for daily living and entertaining. A welcoming sunroom at the rear provides breathtaking vistas of open farmland and easy access to extensive gardens. The sitting room is particularly cozy, featuring an original stone fireplace with a wood-burning stove as its centerpiece. Additionally, there is a convenient ground-floor shower room.
Upstairs, two generously-sized double bedrooms bathe in natural light and offer lovely views. One of Highlea's standout features is its attached stone steading; currently utilized for storage, it presents excellent potential for conversion into additional living space or even ancillary accommodation, reflecting former planning permission that has since lapsed. Outside, the well-maintained gardens wrap around the cottage, providing defined boundaries and areas for relaxation or recreation.
This property caters to diverse interests—whether you envision it as a serene family home or as an investment project with development potential in this picturesque Highland setting.
