Mearon is a two-bedroom detached cottage nestled on approximately 1.53 acres in the scenic parish of Birsay, offering an opportunity for those seeking to invest in a charming rural property. With stunning sea views and a serene setting, this home has potential for both personal enjoyment and enhancement. Although the cottage presents a warm atmosphere with UPVC double-glazed windows and oil central heating, it retains opportunities for modern updates to maximize its appeal.
The spacious living room features an oil-fired stove set on a slate hearth, providing a cozy focal point. The kitchen/diner layout allows for family meals and social gatherings, while direct access to the conservatory—glazed on three sides—invites natural light and offers picturesque views over the Broch of Birsay.
The accommodation includes two double bedrooms, a practical shower room with WC, and a utility room that may benefit from modernization. Externally, Mearon includes a garage and several outbuildings, notably a former cottage in its own walled garden that could be ideal for renovation or conversion projects (subject to necessary permissions). The generous grounds are perfect for gardening pursuits or hobby farming. Key features include proximity to local heritage sites and coastal walks, making this site not just an investment in property but in lifestyle as well.
