Inside ‘outstanding’ Scottish waterside home with sweeping views for sale
An incredible Scottish home nestled right along a tranquil river estuary has just hit the market.
Auchenblae is a beautiful four-bedroom south-facing property that is positioned above the banks of the Kyle of Sutherland in the Highlands, offering gorgeous views out over the water. It is currently available to buy for offers over £675,000.
Designed by the sellers, Auchenblae looks like the perfect family home for those wanting to be immersed in Scotland’s idyllic scenery. From its stunning stone and slate exterior to its stylish-yet-cosy rooms, the property — which is described as “outstanding” in the listing — has everything that you could want.
Stepping inside, the home is filled with natural light and takes full advantage of the stunning green views thanks to its extensive use of glass and french doors. It is also incredibly energy efficient, and benefits from underfloor heating that will no doubt be a godsend when the weather turns chilly.
The highlight of the interior has to be the enormous sitting room, which forms the heart of the home. From its double-height ceiling to the large statement fireplace, it looks like the perfect spot for both entertaining and relaxing with the family.
Elsewhere, there is also a large kitchen with fabulous green views to enjoy while cooking and two separate dining areas to pick from. All four bedrooms are spacious and scenic, but the master especially stands out with its separate dressing area and en-suite bathroom.
Outside, Auchenblae is nestled within more than five acres of tranquil grounds — with highlights including a kitchen garden with a polytunnel and a separate wildflower garden. There is also a range of outbuildings including kennels, garden stores, and even a ‘Shepard’s Hut’ summerhouse.
More information and images can be found on the Galbraith listing.
