4 bedroom semi-detached house

The charming town of Kingussie, the capital of Badenoch, is located within the Cairngorms National Park, known as the outdoor capital of the North, in one of the most accessible parts of the Highlands having excellent links to both North and South via the A9 trunk road and the main line railway. The airport in Inverness is approximately 50 miles away, giving access to all the main English cities and further afield. The surrounding countryside is a haven for wildlife, with red deer, badgers and squirrels amongst some of the abundant inhabitants. There is a wealth of excellent rural sporting facilities, such as stalking and grouse shooting, along with trout and salmon fishing. There are also many outdoor pursuits available within the National Park, such as hill walking, climbing, mountain biking, wind-surfing, skiing and snowboarding. There are also a number of renowned golf courses in the area - including the championship Spey Valley course in Aviemore - all within stunning countryside settings.

Kingussie has many facilities, such as High School, Primary School, shops, restaurants, coffee shops, golf course, sports centre, library, tennis courts, bowling green and many more activities and clubs for all ages. There are a variety of path networks from the house including the recently upgraded Creag Bheag circular. Ardmore is a short walk from all these local facilities and enjoys a pleasant outlook over the River Gynack and the surrounding hills.

Ardmore is a substantial stone and slate semi-detached Edwardian Villa with well proportioned accommodation laid out over three floors. Recently upgraded with new energy efficient heating system and additional insulation it also benefits from double glazing, Air-Source Heat Pump, Solar PV (4.2kW), Tesla Powerwall Battery (13.5kW) and wood-burning stove. There is a large en-suite bedroom on the top floor with views of the hills to both front and rear. There is potential to split this room into two. It has recently been available as self-contained holiday accommodation.

This attractive property would make an ideal family home being within 100m of transport links to both North and South and local shopping facilities.
