Avoch 200-year-old five-bedroom former manse put on the market for £575,000
A B-listed Black Isle home, aged around 200 years old, has been put on the market for £575,000
The 5-bedroom villa at Braehead in Avoch, which has one acre of landscaped gardens, was built in the early 1800s and has previously been used as a manse.
Despite being a Georgian-era building, estate agents The Agency UK state that the home has been “sympathetically modernised and extended whilst retaining many original features”. An example of this is the 20-year-old extension to the house with a hall, cloakroom and shower room.
The property has an Energy Efficiency Rating of Grade E, but a potential to reach Grade D.
According to Highland Historic Environment Records, the period property has previously been known as Hill House.
In the property description, The Agency UK said: “This large family home is laid out over four floors and the bottom of the garden has been previously looked at as two potential house plots.
“The property is situated on the quiet Braehead road overlooking the historic village of Avoch and the Moray Firth. It has a gated entrance, lock and block driveway, the one acre mature landscaped grounds surround the house giving it a private feel, and are laid to lawn, and with the South facing fruit terraces leading down to two small paddocks.
”The property has been well maintained and retains many original features. It benefits from oil fired central heating and a wood fired boiler, modern bathrooms and kitchen, and a double garage, workshop, and large carport.”
