This is an opportunity to purchase a detached property of character in the Highlands of Scotland. This former schoolhouse boasts unspoilt sea views, a large Everest conservatory facing the sea, 3 spacious double bedrooms, a family-sized bathroom (in need of renovation), a kitchen with 4-door dark blue AGA (only 6 years old) which runs on oil, an understair cloakroom cupboard, two large public rooms, a utility room (also in need of renovation) and garden of approx. 3/4 acre with mature trees and dry stone dyke walls all round. There are open fireplaces in all 3 bedrooms and in both public rooms, which are entirely functional. The driveway can easily accommodate 4 cars (2 side-by-side and two in a row) and there is a quaint stone outbuilding, formerly used as a boiler house, which would make either a great shed, workshop, or even pony stable. A short walk or drive (approx. 1.5 miles) from the back of the property leads to a public forest of 4 or 5 miles in length - perfect for walking dogs or riding horses through since access to vehicles is prohibited. The nearest grocery stores are found in the small fishing village of Lybster, about 4 miles South, whilst the nearest town is Wick, about 10 miles North, featuring airport and train station and newly-built shopping complex. This is a rare opportunity to purchase an old property of character in the relative peace and tranquility of the Scottish Highlands.
