Summary - WATTEN SHOOTING LODGE, WATTEN MAINS, WICK, WATTEN KW1 5UH
6 bed 4 bath House
Spacious rural property with strong rental upside and garden.
Six bedrooms with scenic views over Watten Loch
Watten Shooting Lodge is a six-bedroom freehold house overlooking Watten Loch, offered for sale at auction. The property includes front and back gardens, off-street parking and multiple bathrooms, and is presented as a flexible opportunity for an owner-occupier, investor, holiday-let operator or HMO conversion subject to necessary consents.
The house benefits from scenic loch and coastal views, a wood-burning stove in the living room, and a mix of traditional stone cottage character with more contemporary living space. Estimated rental income is quoted at £950–£1,150 pcm, presenting near-term income potential for lettings or short-term stays once marketed and legally configured.
Buyers should note material constraints: the property is offered at auction and will sell subject to the auction process; broadband speeds are very slow and mobile signal is only average. The area is classified as very deprived and council tax is described as expensive, which may affect running costs and marketing to tenants.
The house may require updating and possibly planning consents to realise alternative uses (HMO or holiday let). Internal features include some small to medium rooms and areas with low ceilings typical of the traditional stone cottage element — factor these into layouts and refurbishment budgets.
