Nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Achininver, this traditional cottage presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Set at the end of a quiet lane near Tongue in Sutherland, the property showcases captivating views over Achininver Beach and Strathmelness Glen. While it features double glazing and electric heating, it awaits modern updates to fully realize its potential as either a serene permanent residence or an attractive holiday let, capitalizing on the area's popularity as a tourist destination along the North 500 route.
The layout includes a sun porch that invites natural light and stunning views, a cozy front-facing lounge with an open fire (currently enhanced by an electric feature), three bedrooms including one with an en-suite wet room, and a kitchen equipped with essential appliances. The upper floor offers two spacious double bedrooms, both boasting picturesque beach views, alongside a family bathroom. Outside, the wraparound garden is predominantly grassy with mature trees providing character. With parking development underway nearby, accessibility will improve further.
Local amenities are found in Melness just down the road, while Tongue offers additional services such as schools and shops. For those looking for wider facilities, Thurso is 44 miles away and Inverness can be reached after a 92-mile drive. This property is ripe for transformation, making viewing essential for anyone interested in embracing rural living with coastal allure.
