Set on the waterfront in Lochcarron, this detached two-bedroom cottage blends traditional character with practical modern updates. The house sits across one-and-a-half storeys and benefits from uninterrupted views over Loch Carron, a raised decking area and private garden levels ideal for outdoor sitting and potting. Two multifunction stoves and dark timber floors give the ground floor strong country character and warmth.
Inside, the recently updated galley kitchen offers efficient working space with tiled splashbacks and room for appliances. Upstairs, two double bedrooms feature dormer windows, built-in wardrobes and decorative open fireplaces; a third smaller room provides a study or box room. Practical additions include an integral store/boiler room, oil-fired central heating and useful outbuildings.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property carries an EPC rating of F (37) and is heated by an oil-fired boiler, so running and upgrade costs should be factored in. Broadband speeds are slow locally and the wider area is classified as a remoter, ageing rural community, with secondary schooling in Plockton around 20 miles away.
Priced below the Home Report valuation, Duneistein will suit buyers seeking a character-filled Highland retreat with scope to improve energy performance and modern communications. It offers immediate occupation with scope for selective upgrading to reduce running costs and enhance comfort.
