Summary - HIGH TORE, FORRES, DALLAS IV36 2RW
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Spacious five-bedroom home with spectacular light and flexible family layout.
Over one acre of private, landscaped garden and woodland backdrop
Set in over an acre of private grounds at the top of the Pluscarden Valley, this contemporary five-bedroom detached home suits families seeking space, light and countryside privacy. The house centres on a stunning open-plan kitchen/dining/family area with floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors to the garden — an ideal hub for daily living and entertaining. High-quality fittings include painted solid oak cabinetry, granite worktops, a large island and a woodburning stove.
A generous triple-aspect lounge, separate reception room and a flexible ground-floor layout (home office, utility, store and integral garage) give practical options for family life. The first floor is bright and airy with a galleried landing, Velux rooflights and two balcony windows. Five double bedrooms are served by four modern bathrooms, including a master en-suite and a Jack-and-Jill en-suite, providing strong convenience for larger households.
Comfort and efficiency are enhanced by underfloor heating across both floors and solar panels visible on the roof, while excellent mobile signal supports remote working. However, broadband speeds are very slow — an important consideration for heavy internet users. The property’s remote, rural location offers tranquillity and excellent outdoor access but means amenities are a short drive away. Council tax is noted as quite expensive and the area records higher deprivation indicators; prospective buyers should factor local costs and service access into their decision.
Overall, High Tore offers a high-quality contemporary country home with generous indoor and outdoor space, strong daylighting and flexible living areas. It will particularly appeal to families who prioritise privacy, a large garden for outdoor life, and a well-appointed kitchen-living heart, while those needing fast broadband or close urban services should check connectivity and travel times beforehand.
