Spacious period family home with HMO potential and renovation upside.
Victorian 5-bedroom detached villa with period features and high ceilings
This Victorian 5-bedroom detached villa in Strathpeffer combines period character with substantial living space and a traditional landscaped garden. High ceilings, large bay windows, ornate detailing and a slate roof give immediate kerb appeal and comfortable, light-filled rooms arranged over two main floors. The house is vacant and offered freehold at auction, presented at a competitive guide price against a Home Report valuation of £475,000.
Internally the ground floor offers a welcoming vestibule and hall, living room with fireplace, formal dining room, study, bedroom with en-suite, kitchen/dining and utility. The first floor includes a sitting room with kitchenette, four further bedrooms (two en-suite), a family bathroom and generous landing — a flexible layout that suits families or can be converted for other uses.
There is clear upside for buyers prepared to customise and modernise: the property is sold at auction and marketed as having strong HMO income potential (estimated £400–£500 per room at circa 70% occupancy). That makes it of interest to investors, while owner-occupiers gain a spacious family home in a scenic area. Practical considerations: the property will require some updating and refurbishment to unlock full value.
Buyers should note material facts plainly: the house is in a very deprived local area, council tax is described as quite expensive, and the sale will proceed via auction terms. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is average; there is no flood risk. Viewings and pre-auction investigations are recommended to confirm condition and scope of works before bidding.
