Period house with Cromarty Firth views
This substantial period home in Scotland is an opportunity to own a house brimming with character and offering far-reaching sea views
Cromarty West Church Manse is a fantastic period house brimming with characterful features. The property has been meticulously maintained but will require some modernisation internally. Fireplaces, skirting, woodwork and servants' bells all remain in tact. Reception rooms benefit from bay windows and lovely open aspects while the five bedrooms upstairs make the most of the stunning views.
Accommodation comprises: hallway, sitting room, drawing room, dining room, bedroom/study, bathroom and kitchen on the ground floor and master bedroom suite and four further bedrooms, box room, bathroom and dressing room on the first floor.
Outside the gardens are mainly laid to lawn and are bounded by mature trees, plants and shrubs. There are several outbuildings including a tool and coal store, wood store and timber shed, all in around 1.5 acres.
