Secluded plot with large lawn and useful outbuildings.
Spectacular southerly views across open countryside to the Cairngorms
Set in an elevated, secluded spot near Tomintoul within the Cairngorms National Park, this single-storey cottage offers genuine Highland character and sweeping southerly views across open countryside. The Old Kennels sits on about 0.38 acres of mainly lawned grounds, bordered by stone walls, with off-street parking and useful outbuildings including a store and attached shed with WC.
The accommodation is flexible and practical: a welcoming sitting room with an open fire and picture windows, a kitchen with space for a table, four ground-floor bedrooms, one family bathroom and a floored attic used as a playroom. The property has oil central heating, double glazing, private water and drainage, and has previously been run successfully as a holiday let — offering potential for continued holiday income or comfortable year-round family use.
Buyers should note a few material points: the EPC rating is E, broadband speeds are very slow, and there is only one bathroom for four bedrooms. The cottage appears in generally good condition but is older in construction and will suit purchasers comfortable with rural maintenance and traditional fittings; there is scope for sympathetic updating to improve energy performance and modern conveniences.
A rare find for those seeking privacy, outdoor space and panoramic Highland scenery, this cottage will appeal to families or buyers wanting a tranquil country base close to outdoor recreation. A closing date has been set for Wednesday 10 September 2025 at 12 noon; interested parties should plan their inspections accordingly.
