Description

This unique stone bungalow, nestled on approximately 12 acres of private land that stretches down to the shoreline of the Bay of Sowerdie, represents a significant opportunity for investment and renovation. Spanning 173 SqM, the property features an impressive open plan living area with exposed beams and a large wall of glass that overlooks a tranquil reflecting pond and the loch beyond. This well-lit space is not only perfect for family gatherings but also presents various options for reconfiguration to enhance its appeal. The principal bedroom is thoughtfully placed for privacy, complete with skylight access to the outdoors, while three additional bedrooms offer flexibility for use as guest rooms or office space. A contemporary family bathroom and utility room add to the home's practicality. Recent renovations include underfloor heating and double glazing, contributing to its respectable EPC rating of C, reflecting improvements made around 2012. The expansive land offers further potential: it includes two enclosed paddocks, a stable with utilities, and outbuildings ideal for conversion into studios or workshops. Additionally, there’s a small yet functional wind turbine providing an income stream through feed-in tariffs, which reinforces this property's potential as both a home and an investment. Galilee combines character with vast outdoor space in a peaceful island community while remaining well-connected by air and ferry services to Orkney Mainland.
