Traditional cottage with parking, garden and renovation potential near NC500..
Detached two-storey cottage of around 1,073 sq ft, freehold
A traditional two-storey village house on a generous corner plot, Grove House offers clear scope for a buyer who wants character and practical space in the north Highlands. The property totals about 1,073 sq ft with two double bedrooms, a sizable living room and a kitchen/diner, plus two useful store rooms that could be repurposed. Off-street parking for several vehicles and room to add a garage (subject to planning) are strong practical advantages for rural living.
The location on the NC500 route close to Invergordon and Tain suits someone who needs coastal access, commuting options and local amenities. Good mobile signal and fast broadband are already in place, and the primary school in nearby Milton is within walking distance. There is attractive countryside on the doorstep — Balnagown Estate, walks, cycling and fishing nearby — which will appeal to outdoor buyers and holiday-let operators.
Important to note: the house requires renovation throughout. The exterior appears sound but internal modernisation, updating and possible remedial work will be needed; buyers should budget for works. The surrounding area is described as very deprived in local statistics, which may affect resale speed and pricing. There is no flooding risk recorded.
For purchasers seeking a project with immediate practical benefits — parking, garden, solid traditional fabric and good connectivity — Grove House offers value and scope to add equity through sympathetic refurbishment. Plan and costs should be checked before committing; planning would be needed for any garage or extension.
