Anam Cara is a substantial four-bedroom detached home set within approximately 2.7 acres of private, landscaped gardens and terraces. Built in 2002 and later extended, the house presents generous, well-proportioned rooms including an open-plan dining kitchen, cosy lounge with a contemporary wood-burning stove, and a sunroom that frames the surrounding countryside. The principal suite is a true sanctuary with a dressing room, built-in wardrobes, en-suite and a private balcony overlooking the grounds.
The property sits at the end of a sweeping gravel driveway with a large covered timber carport and single garage, offering effortless parking and strong privacy. The extensive outdoor space includes walled and terraced areas, lawns, patios, a kitchen garden and several useful outbuildings — ideal for family life, pottering or small-scale growing. Energy-efficiency features include a Tesla battery storage unit and an EV charging point; the home has double glazing and an EPC Band B rating.
Practical considerations are straightforward and important to note. Heating is oil-fired rather than gas or mains alternatives, and broadband speeds are very slow, which may affect home working or streaming. Mobile signal is average and council tax is above average. The property is in a scenic rural area about half an hour from Inverness, so it suits a buyer seeking tranquil country living with reasonable access to the city rather than immediate town-centre convenience.
Anam Cara will especially appeal to families or those seeking a roomy rural retreat with formal and informal living areas, extensive gardens and clear scope to personalise ancillary buildings and outside spaces. Its size, layout and private setting deliver immediate comfort, while the plot offers long-term potential for gardening, leisure or modest development (subject to consents).
