There are delightful gardens surrounding the property with a front lawn to the front and mature woodland to the rear while the main drive is lined with mature lime and oak trees.
There is also a substantial steading included in the sale which has not been used in recent years but is constructed of stone and has definite development potential. The adjoining land is around 3.72 acres and includes a small paddock with a belt of trees.
The salmon fishing which comes with the property is extensive: extending to 1.25 miles of very productive beat on the nearby River Glass and includes nine named pools. Access to the River is by foot and the beat has not been heavily fished of late. There is also trout fishing on the river, although records have not been kept.
The property is in a fantastic Highland spot – just 25 miles south of Inverness with its train connections and airports, and the small town of Beauly 12 miles distant offers fantastic amenities including a delicatessen, ironmongers, doctors, bakers, antique shops and of course the renowned Campbells of Beauly.
The guide price is £700,000. For further information please contact CKD Galbraith on 01463 224 343 or visit www.ckdgalbraith.co.uk.
