Secluded, characterful country house with generous garden and conversion potential for families.
- Three bedrooms including two en suites and master suite
- Open-plan sitting/dining room with woodburning stove
- Conservatory overlooking garden and woodland
- Integral games room with mezzanine; potential for conversion
- Large level plot of approximately 0.43 acres, very private
- Short walk to the River Spey; located in Cairngorms National Park
- EPC rating F; likely higher running costs
- Very slow broadband and remoter location; limited connectivity
Set in a sheltered, wooded plot just a short walk from the River Spey, this sensitively upgraded stone boathouse offers comfortable country living in the Cairngorms National Park. The home provides an open-plan sitting and dining room with wood-burning stove, a bright conservatory, and three double bedrooms including two en suites and a first-floor master suite with dressing space.
The grounds extend to about 0.43 acres of level lawn, mature trees and a flagstone patio, with a gravel driveway and off-street parking. An integral-but-externally-accessed games room with mezzanine TV area offers scope for conversion or incorporation into the main house, subject to consents, adding practical flexibility for growing families or holiday use.
Practical considerations are clear: the property has an EPC rating of F and very slow broadband speeds, and it sits in a remote, sparsely populated area with limited local services — factors that affect running costs and connectivity. There is a right of access over the driveway. Council tax is above average.
Overall, The Old Boathouse will suit buyers seeking privacy, strong scenic value and well-presented period character close to the river. It is a ready-to-enjoy country home that also offers modest improvement potential for those who want to enlarge living space or reduce running costs.
