With three double bedrooms, generous secluded gardens and a truly scenic setting, this delightful home offers an exceptional lifestyle opportunity for those seeking peaceful countryside living. Balnagowan Cottage, originally dating back to the 1850s and once formed from two separate properties, retains a wealth of period character including exposed ceiling beams and a cosy wood-burning stove.

The accommodation comprises a welcoming hallway, a spacious kitchen/sitting room centred around the wood-burning stove, a conservatory enjoying garden views, three well-proportioned double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property further benefits from double glazing and electric central heating. Externally, the home sits within generous, secluded garden grounds with off-street parking, backing onto woodland and enjoying outstanding open views to the front. Whether you are searching for a permanent residence or a Highland retreat, Balnagowan Cottage presents a rare opportunity to create a truly special home in a highly desirable setting.
