Atholl Cottage is a characterful period property with an enviable location offering unbeatable views across the Moray Firth to the Black Isle, as well as to the Sutors of Cromarty and Easter Ross. It provides a range of light-filled and adaptable accommodation across two floors, including a first-floor balcony, and enjoys a well-connected setting with easy access to the thriving Highland capital of Inverness.

The property is beautifully presented and arranged with the main living accommodation on the first floor to make the most of the impressive elevated views. The skylit landing flows to the well-proportioned sitting room with dual aspect windows and feature fireplace, and to the formal dining room with its double doors flowing to the south-facing balcony, offering an excellent entertaining and al fresco dining space. Sat centrally is a well-appointed kitchen with a range of modern cabinetry and various appliances, alongside which is a useful cloakroom.

The ground floor level comprises a porch leading to an airy hallway with store cupboards beneath the stairway. The generous principal suite enjoys the use of an attached dressing room and an en suite shower room. Further is a family bathroom serving two additional bedrooms, one of which also benefits from integrated wardrobes.

Outside

The property benefits from a small paved courtyard beside the main entrance enclosed via original wrought-iron gates, as well as an attractive first-floor balcony offering excellent outdoor space. There is no garden area to maintain, making this an ideal holiday or retirement home or to continue its current use as a holiday let. Its situation on the Nairn Links parkland gives access to extensive manicured green spaces, as well as the award-winning beach.

Situation

The desirable seafront town of Nairn with its picturesque sandy beaches offers an excellent selection of amenities, including schools, shops, supermarkets, eateries, an arts centre, hospital, harbour and two championship golf courses. Leisure facilities include tennis and squash courts and a fitness centre. Inverness, the Highland capital offers even more extensive recreational and cultural amenities.

The area is a magnet for outdoor enthusiasts, with easy access to the many sandy beaches of the Moray Firth, the Cairngorms National Park and less than an hour by car to the edge of the North-West Highlands, often referred to as one of Europe's last great wilderness areas.

Communication links are excellent: the nearby A96 runs from Aberdeen and links to the A9 giving access to the Northern Highlands, Nairn station links to Inverness in just 16 minutes with onward links to major regional centres including a sleeper service to London. Inverness Airport, less than 10 miles away offers a range of domestic and European flights.
