This intriguing semi-detached property, originally part of an 1850s poorhouse complex, offers a unique opportunity to reimagine a piece of history in Tain. Known as 'Rhiannon', this home retains historical features such as worn stone markings and an inscription above the entrance. Converted into residential space in the 1980s, it presents a canvas for creativity, with traditional stone walls and timber accents that provide a strong foundation for modernization.
Upon entering, you're welcomed by warm wooden flooring leading into an inviting hallway accentuated by open shelving for practical storage or display. The living area features a prominent wood-burning stove on a raised hearth, flanked by built-in shelving; the patio doors invite natural light and outdoor access. This adaptable space can accommodate various configurations, making it perfect for both relaxation and entertaining.
The kitchen is generously sized with classic wooden cabinets and grey laminate worktops, though its vintage charm could benefit from refreshing updates. A compact study adjacent to the kitchen could easily serve as an additional bedroom or office space.
Upstairs, two double bedrooms with charming sloped ceilings are filled with natural light from Velux windows, while the bathroom combines functionality with potential for modern upgrades.
Externally, the modest garden spaces present opportunities for landscaping tailored to contemporary lifestyles. With secure parking and located on a quiet private road, this property strikes a balance between tranquility and convenience.
Rhiannon's solid construction combined with oil heating makes it an ideal candidate for renovation enthusiasts looking to imbue their personal touch into this historic home. With scope for substantial updates throughout, this property offers both immediate comfort and long-term investment potential in a well-connected Highland town.
