Three bedroom detached bungalow

Canada Cottage is a detached three-bedroom bungalow on a large private plot in Upper Slumbay, at the western end of Lochcarron, with views across Loch Carron to the hills beyond. The property is offered at a guide price of £130,000, a substantial discount against the Home Report valuation of £265,000. Inside, there are entrance vestibules, a central hallway, a lounge with a feature fireplace and patio doors to the garden, a dining room and a large kitchen with a breakfast bar. There are three bedrooms, the principal with an en suite, along with a family bathroom, utility room, store and hall cupboards. The cottage needs a full renovation, so buyers can modernise and reconfigure it to suit their own plans. It offers around 1,498 sq ft on one level in a popular lochside spot on the North Coast 500, and once refurbished it could work well as a Highland home, serviced accommodation or a project for an experienced property developer. Outside, the garden plot is generous and private, with ramped access and the nearest neighbour about 100 meters away. There maybe scope for further development, subject to the necessary consents. The property has mains electricity, a private water supply and private drainage. With outstanding views and an opportunity to add value through renovation, this property is sure to command a significant interest at this attractive guide price. Council Tax Band: D.
