Superb architect-designed home with breath-taking views to Eilean Donan Castle.
Description
Castle View sits at Upper Ardelve, a village in the Scottish Highlands which overlooks Eilean Donan Castle to the east of Skye. It is located close to the narrowest point of the channel which separates the mainland from the Isle of Skye and sits at the convergence of three lochs – Loch Alsh, Loch Duich and Loch Long.
An extraordinary blend of contemporary luxury and natural beauty, Castle View presents a rare opportunity to own an exceptional property in one of Scotland's most picturesque locations.
Poised on the edge of the stunning Loch Alsh, Castle View seamlessly integrates modern design elements with the surrounding environment and has undergone a complete refurbishment by the current owners to create an impressive build with outstanding green credentials.
Property
Panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and the strategically designed living space ensure that every room captures the breath-taking landscape which blends tranquil waters with the rugged beauty of the Scottish Highlands.
The open plan sitting room is the real heart of this property, with the use of expansive glass, wood burning stove and cosy sitting area leading to a spacious kitchen, complete with bespoke fixtures such as a boiling water tap and kitchen island.
From here there is a decked terrace from which the glorious view can be enjoyed from dawn to dusk.
A spacious and well stocked utility room, complete with handy cleaning sink and pet shower, is located off the kitchen.
On the ground floor there are three bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room, and an additional main bathroom.
The first floor hosts the principal bedroom with its own dressing room and en suite bathroom off. This level has its own open plan sitting room, with stunning velux windows flooding the room with natural light.
There is also a large study or office which is ideal for combining home working and being close to nature.
Grounds and Outbuildings
Castle View has space for parking multiple vehicles alongside a large double garage with electricity, WC and EV charging point. There are a range of additional outbuildings including workshop, small shed and greenhouse.
There are an additional 5 acres of owner-occupied croft land pre-planted with 2,500 native & fruit trees, available by further negotiation.
Location
Kyle of Lochalsh offers a range of facilities with shops including hardware stores, chemist, butcher, bank and supermarket. The adjacent village of Dornie, which runs alongside the water, is home to a small village community, a hotel and two bars, alongside a small shop which has won Community Hub Project grant to reopen along with a café. The nearby Eilean Donan Castle is a 13th century historic landmark, one of Scotland's most iconic and most recognisable castles featuring famously in the original "Highlander”. The castle is a popular tourist destination offering a local community shop, café and spectacular views.
Numerous lochs and rivers throughout the county provide both salmon and trout fishing, and the west coast is famous for its exciting sailing and varied coastline. Plockton lies approximately 6 miles away and is another popular anchorage for yachts, with the addition of a general store, three restaurants and both primary and secondary schooling.
Plockton also has a private airstrip and a railway station with regular services to and from Inverness. The area provides an excellent base for exploring northwest Scotland. There is spectacular hill walking, climbing and mountaineering, and for the country sportsman, the dramatic Ross-shire scenery is also host to some of the most challenging deer stalking in Scotland.
