This rare freehold property combines a fully renovated three-bedroom residence with a turnkey, profitable bakery/café located on the North Coast 500 tourist route. The house is in pristine condition following recent works, offering contemporary interiors that retain traditional stone-cottage character and uninterrupted coastal and countryside views from an elevated position.
Accommodation spans three floors and includes two en-suite double bedrooms, a third bedroom, an open-plan kitchen/dining area, utility room and family bathroom. Heating is by oil-fired central system and the property benefits from uPVC double glazing. Outside there are large family garden grounds ideal for outdoor living and enjoying the scenery.
The attached Norse Bakehouse operates as an established, well-maintained business with high-quality kitchen facilities and a generous dining area. Full planning permission exists for a café extension and there is a pre-application for conversion of the café to residential use (full details available). The site offers clear potential for continued trading or alternative residential development subject to permissions.
Notable constraints: the location is remote with very slow broadband and only average mobile signal; the wider area is classified as very deprived. The EPC is rated E (48) and the property uses oil heating, which may influence running costs. These factors should be weighed against the unique lifestyle and commercial opportunity in a high-tourist route setting.
