A compact, single‑bedroom semi‑detached bungalow set within Balvatin Cottages at the southern entrance to Newtonmore. The ground‑floor layout gives immediate accessibility: an open‑plan lounge and kitchen, a spacious double bedroom and a three‑piece bathroom. Full timber double glazing and electric economy heating keep the fabric up to date and the home report confirms an EPC D.
Outside, residents benefit from generously sized communal gardens with mature trees and a designated off‑street parking space. The development includes useful communal facilities — a large lockable basement storage unit and communal laundry — and a resident committee that manages exterior upkeep. Service charges are modest at about £39 per month (approximately £468 annually), and Council Tax is Band A, making running costs relatively low.
This property suits a first‑time buyer, a downsizer or a buyer seeking a holiday let close to the Cairngorms’ outdoor amenities. Its small overall floor area (approximately 366 sq ft) and single bedroom mean it will appeal to those seeking low‑maintenance accommodation rather than family living. The home could also offer long‑term rental potential given local tourism and outdoor recreation.
Important considerations: the accommodation is small and will not suit buyers needing more than one bedroom or significant living space. Heating is electric economy rather than gas, which can mean higher running costs depending on usage. The wider area is classified as a very deprived, remoter agricultural community, which may affect resale dynamics and local services. The seller asks offers over £130,000 and a home report is available for full inspection.
