Description
Nestled in a tranquil setting with sweeping views over East Loch Tarbert, this property presents a compelling opportunity for those interested in a significant renovation project. While it requires comprehensive repairs and modernization throughout, the potential to create a spacious and appealing home is considerable. Formerly operated as a bed and breakfast, this residence holds diverse possibilities—whether restoring it to its previous use, converting it into a charming family home, or developing it into a serene retreat. The layout includes an entrance hallway, lounge, family/dining room, kitchen, bathroom, and double bedroom on the ground floor, along with three additional bedrooms and a WC upstairs. The property features electric heating and uPVC windows throughout. Outside, you'll find lovely landscaping with various shrubs and the option for off-road parking. Located near Scalpay Lighthouse, this location is perfect for enjoying scenic coastal walks while still being close to local amenities in Tarbert, approximately seven miles away.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
44out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a substantial detached-house project in a strikingly remote setting, with panoramic East Loch Tarbert views and a former B&B layout that offers scope to reshape the property as a home or getaway. The photographed interiors have dated finishes across several rooms, and the lounge ceiling has extensive dark staining and damaged finish; investigating the cause and addressing it will be an important part of the works. The overgrown garden also gives a clear opportunity to uncover and improve its existing paths and features.
The score is E (44/100), reflecting a heavy project and gaps in the available value data rather than a judgement that the asking price is high: floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The £55,000–£95,000 renovation range signals a full-scale programme, while the detached exterior appears broadly intact in the available views and the coastal setting is a distinctive asset.
Key opportunities
- Rework the former B&B’s multiple living spaces and four-bedroom layout into a distinctive home or peaceful getaway.
- Refresh the dated interior finishes, including the older kitchen and bathroom, to create a more cohesive character throughout.
- Clear and improve the overgrown garden to reveal its existing paths and features, complementing the coastal setting and loch views.
Key risks
- The £55,000–£95,000 works range and pronounced lounge ceiling staining make this a substantial budget and programme commitment; establish the source of the staining before repairing the damaged finish.
- Floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be assessed.
