This beautiful, airy, open plan longhouse is situated on an idyllic secluded property 13 miles from Ullapool on the south shore of Loch Broom: the water is just a 5 minute walk away! The house is tastefully decorated and furnished with many original artworks to enjoy from paintings and textiles to ceramics. The perfect location if you are looking for rugged, authentic Highland scenery and enjoy walking. Alternatively, the peace and setting make it an inspiring place to read, write or paint. The house boasts an impressive library of books.
A short walk away is the idyllic shoreline and Loggie Bay with its sailing and working boats, and a stunning view of Ullapool across the water. This is an ideal place for kayaking, sailing and swimming if you are not afraid of cold water!
The property is owned by a traditional wooden boatbuilder who lives in a 150 year old croft house on this 2 acre plot. You are likely to see boats around awaiting restoration as this is a working yard. There is also a studio with a resident painter. The land has been managed to retain its wildness and as a result is home to a wide variety of flora and fauna. An amazing variety of birds can be seen and deer are regular visitors.
The house features easy mobility access, a large bright open plan living and kitchen area all with underfloor heating. There are three private bedrooms, one ensuite, and a wet room. There is a cosy upstairs studio/sitting area for relaxing in front of a film, tackling a jigsaw, drawing or painting at the desk or watching the night sky. The house is located at the end of a private, unmade track and has space for parking 4 cars. Luxury towels and linens are all provided.
