An impressive conversion of a stone steading, 2 Damhead Steading combines period character with flexible accommodation. The south-facing wing comprises a generous three-bedroom main house and a distinct two-bedroom tower currently run as a successful self-catering holiday let; the seller can provide occupancy accounts to interested parties. Together they offer either separate income and private living, multi-generational living, or the potential to reopen internal access and create a substantial single-family home.
The main house retains many character features — exposed stone, high ceilings, an inglenook fireplace and a spacious dining kitchen — and flows to a conservatory, utility and large living room. The tower is a quirky, well-presented, independent unit over three floors with two ensuites and private patio views. Both parts enjoy open rural outlooks, woodland access and are only minutes from long sandy beaches and nearby Forres amenities.
Practical positives include a sweeping gravel driveway with private off-street parking, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, private garden lawns and tranquil terraces for outdoor living. The property is freehold and well suited to buyers seeking a lifestyle property with immediate holiday-let income or space for a growing/multi-generational family.
Buyers should note material considerations: the home sits in an area recorded as very deprived and the council tax band is above average; shared courtyard and parking arrangements exist and should be confirmed. The accommodation is substantial (approximately 3,181 sq ft) and will require ongoing maintenance typical of period stone buildings. Interested parties must verify measurements and the details of the holiday-let accounts before relying on income figures.
