Hillside lies on the fringes of the village of Fortrose on the Black Isle, a peninsula just to the north of Inverness between the Moray and Cromarty Firths. The property is in a secluded setting with stunning views of the Moray Firth and to historic Fort George, Chanonry Point, where dolphins are regularly seen, and the Moray coast.

Fortrose is a historic, traditional former fishing village and is popular for its beautiful coastal location and easy access to Inverness. There is a good range of local shops as well as a harbour, yacht club, highly-regarded secondary school and golf course, while at its heart are the remains of the magnificent Fortrose Cathedral. Inverness, about a twenty minute drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.

The Black Isle has fertile rolling countryside with a beautiful coastline of raised beaches and prominent headlands. There are many walks and trails in the area, accessible from Hillside itself, the village and further afield. The countryside of the Scottish Highlands is varied, from the farmland of the coast to the inland moorlands and rugged mountains. This unspoilt landscape provides a haven for many rare and protected species of wildlife, as well as a wide range of rural leisure and sporting opportunities including skiing and adventure sports in the Cairngorms National Park.

Hillside was designed by the current owners in conjunction with their architect and the build was completed in 1997 with all appropriate consents in place. The property has well-appointed family accommodation with high quality finishes and the configuration of the layout, with the bedrooms on the ground floor, allows the reception rooms and kitchen to take advantage of the stunning views.
The house has been well-maintained with recent improvements including a new fitted kitchen, new bathroom and shower room fittings, new carpeting and regular redecoration. In addition, the oil fired central heating system has been replaced with an air source heat pump, which is service annually by Black Isle Renewables, and there are pv panels which provide a modest income through a Feed-in Tariff.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on April 6, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on April 6, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
