6 bedroom detached house for sale

Yvonne Fitzgerald is delighted to bring to the market this excellent opportunity to purchase this former bed and breakfast which is located in an elevated position with fabulous views of the coast on the main NC 500 route and has huge potential. This bed and breakfast was successfully run by the current owners for about 10 years, although they have not offered Bed and Breakfast for the last year due to their age, and they are reluctantly selling due to their wish to retire. There is now an opportunity for new owners to reinstate this once-thriving business and live in the countryside with views along the coastline and to the open sea. The stunning house is presented in walk-in pristine condition. There is a wide driveway through gates leading from a layby which is part of the property, off the A9, and  providing access into the large parking area and garden which extends to approximately a third of an acre. Inside the stunning house which is accessed through a wide open hallway there is a beautiful large lounge which has double Victorian glazed doors that flow into the kitchen/diner/sunlounge. There is a wing of three luxury bedrooms on the ground floor which all have ensuites, upstairs there is a fourth luxury bedroom with ensuite and the family suite has a double bedroom, single bedroom and a family bathroom. There is also a great amount of storage in the house as well as an office, downstairs W.C. and a utility room. The house also has a large garage which has been well built and fully insulated, and a greenhouse. There are solar panels to the roof and there are fitted fire doors, smoke detectors and emergency lighting. The guest bedrooms all have T.V.’s, fridges and hairdryers. Almost everything within the house will be included in the sale to allow the new owners to immediately start the reinstatement of the business. Please note, that this is a traditional cavity built house using insulation blocks and cavity insulation batts. The internal walls on the ground floor are all block built and plastered. The roof is a traditional cut roof with 4 leaded valleys and finished in interlock concrete tiles.
