This stunning and stylishly presented 4 bedroomed traditional cottage has a fully self-contained attached 1 bedroomed annexe.

Property - Balnaglaic House is a stylishly presented 4 bedroomed detached cottage with a fully self-contained 1 bedroomed annexe. Sitting on a generous plot with numerous outbuildings, and a beautifully maintained central courtyard; this one-of-a-kind property is sure to appeal to any discerning buyers looking for a large family home, or those looking for a property with potential to convert to a guest house or B&B. Boasting tastefully traditional décor, this extremely generously proportioned property’s accommodation is spread over two levels with the ground floor comprising a double bedroom, a sitting room with woodburning stove, a large kitchen/dining room which boasts wall and base mounted units with worktops and splashback tiling, a double ceramic sink with mixer tap, an integrated electric cooker with extractor over, an integrated dishwasher, and freestanding appliances including a fridge/freezer and a Rangemaster range cooker. Off the kitchen is a WC and a laundry room. Upstairs, off the first-floor landing can be found three further bedrooms, two doubles and a single, and a bathroom which has been beautifully fitted with a bath, a shower cubicle with electric shower, a WC, and a vanity mounted wash hand basin. From the sitting room, an inner hall leads through to the sizeable lounge that boasts a number of pleasing features such as beautiful, exposed stonework, a woodburning stove, a fitted bar, and stairs leading up to a mezzanine snug that overlooks the rest of the space. From this seating area a door leads through to the annexe, or “The Barn.” This entirely self-contained space could make for the perfect separate living space for older children or older relatives, or could be utilised as an extension to the main house. The large double bedroom has ample space for wardrobes as well as an extensive, low-height storage space. From here is the lounge which has a feature fireplace and two deep-set windows looking out over the courtyard. Off the lounge is a short hallway which has an external door out to the courtyard which could act as the annexe’s main entrance, a shower-room, and an open plan kitchen/dining room.
Externally, the property sits within a large garden with the approach being a mix of a gravel in-and-out driveway and perfectly landscaped areas that are laid to lawn. Sitting between the main building and the annexe is the courtyard which provides the perfect space for al-fresco dining or outdoor entertaining. The property has numerous outbuildings including a delightful summerhouse, a large, attached outhouse with power and lighting, a wooden storage shed, and a woodstore. The property is located in Balnain, roughly 5 miles from the village of Drumnadrochit. There is a comprehensive range of local services provided in Drumnadrochit which include shops, hotels, a part time bank, post office, fire service, doctors’ surgery and both primary and secondary schooling.
