Set on the scenic Glendale crofting landscape of the Isle of Skye, this five‑bedroom detached home offers strong holiday‑let and rental potential. The house has generous accommodation over two floors, a large garden with a garden house, gated driveway parking and 16 roof solar panels that reduce running costs. A wood‑burning stove and double glazing are in place; council tax band is low.
The property is offered for sale by auction with a current asking price of £180,000 and a Home Report value of £240,000, presenting scope for value uplift. It would suit an investor or buyer prepared to carry out renovation works to bring the interior up to modern standards and maximise letting income. Broadband speeds are reported as fast, which supports holiday let appeal despite the rural location.
Important practical points: the house requires renovation and cosmetic upgrading throughout, and there is no mobile signal on site. The location is remote and services are limited, so owners should factor travel times and access to schooling and shops. Buyers at auction should allow for any applicable buyer’s fees and check contract conditions prior to bidding.
Overall, this is a rural Skye property with strong income and lifestyle potential for an investor or family seeking a project. The combination of solar panels, substantial garden and five double bedrooms gives flexibility — renovate and retain as a family home, or convert for holiday‑letting to capture the area’s visitor market.
