Chain-free 3-bed cottage with large garden and Cairngorms views.
Chain free 3-bed traditional stone cottage on corner plot
A rare, chain-free opportunity: this 3-bedroom stone cottage sits on a generous corner plot in Blair Atholl, within the Cairngorms National Park. The house retains traditional character — exposed stonework, open fire in the lounge and a wood-burning stove in the dining room — and benefits from extensive front and side lawns with far-reaching countryside views. Excellent mobile signal and immediate access to popular walks make it an appealing base for outdoor life or a quiet home.
Internally the layout is compact but practical: entrance porch, lounge, dining room, kitchen with pantry and garden access, ground-floor bathroom plus a separate shower room, and three first-floor bedrooms (two doubles with views). At about 788 sq ft, rooms are modest in scale so the property suits buyers seeking a cosy home or a holiday bolthole rather than a large family house.
A two-storey bothy at the rear is currently used for storage but offers conversion potential to form separate accommodation or a home office/annexe (subject to consents). The cottage is chain-free and ready for occupation, yet it will benefit from modernisation in parts — buyers should expect updating to services and finishes to personalise the space.
Practical drawbacks to note: broadband speeds are slow and the wider area registers higher deprivation indices; some buyers may find local amenities limited. Despite that, its rural setting, large garden and scenic outlook make it a strong prospect for first-time buyers seeking character or for those after a holiday property with scope to add value.
