Set on the edge of the Black Isle with sweeping 180° sea views across the Cromarty Firth, this large modern five/six-bedroom detached home offers immediate, family-ready accommodation in a quiet rural setting. The house has been newly renovated and presented in neutral, walk-in condition, with a spacious living room, open-plan kitchen/dining area, two ensuite bedrooms and generous upstairs bedrooms that suit a growing family.
Outside, grounds extend to around three-quarters of an acre with lawns, shrubs, a paved patio and a large gravel parking area for several cars. A double garage with floored space above adds practical storage or workspace. Importantly, a planning warrant has been issued for a three-bedroom reduced-mobility house on the land north of the garage — useful for multi-generation living, rental income, or future resale potential (plans may be altered subject to further permissions).
Practical considerations are clear: the property uses oil-fired central heating and benefits from double glazing, but broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average. The location is rural and relatively remote — about 18 miles from Inverness and 13 miles from Dingwall — and the wider area has higher levels of deprivation. Council tax is described as quite expensive. The seller is offering the home at £30,000 below the Home Report valuation until the end of 2025, which may appeal to buyers ready to move quickly.
