Set on an elevated croft with direct views over Loch Ewe to the An Teallach range, this traditional two-bedroom stone cottage offers a rare coastal lifestyle change. The lounge with open fire and a kitchen/diner with included appliances create an immediately liveable home that has successfully operated as a holiday let.
Upstairs provides two spacious double bedrooms, both enjoying the loch and mountain outlooks. The property is double glazed with electric heating throughout and comes fully furnished, ready for immediate occupation or continued holiday-let use. The enclosed front and rear gardens plus off-street parking for two add practical appeal.
Buyers should note some practical drawbacks: the EPC is Band E, heating is electric (with an open fire as a secondary source), and broadband speeds are very slow — important if you need reliable internet. Drainage is via a septic tank and the wider area is classified as very deprived and remote, which affects local services and access.
This cottage suits anyone seeking a quieter West Coast life — downsizers, lifestyle changers or investors looking for a turnkey holiday property. It offers strong scenery and immediate usability, balanced by running-cost considerations and the realities of remoteness.
