Striking villa in elevated position in village setting
Description
New York Villa is a charming detached period villa occupying a elevated position in the Victorian spa village of Strathpeffer. The property is set within its own mature gardens and its name is derived from the original builder, local stonemason Donald Mackenzie, who was born in nearby Mulbuie in 1854 and who travelled in the US and New York City during the latter half of the 19th century. Upon his return to Scotland in the late 1800s, Mackenzie built New York Villa as his family home.
The accommodation begins with an entrance vestibule leading into the spacious hallway which has honey-toned wood flooring and staircase. Off here is the main sitting room with welcoming fireplace and dual aspects. The ground floor also benefits from a large family/living room, also with dual aspects and feature fireplace, along with a study and a WC with shower. The well-equipped dining kitchen is spacious, with kitchen and a range of wall and floor mounted cabinetry. The kitchen is located towards the rear of the property, with outside access via ceiling height sliding doors, and there is a utility room off.
In its current configuration the property has one double bedroom on the ground floor with an en suite shower room and three bedrooms on the first floor, one also with an en suite shower room. There is also a main family bathroom complete with bath and shower. The property has a self-contained annexe with separate entrance with potential for a variety of uses. The annexe comprises a double bedroom, en suite shower room, and an open plan kitchen/ living room.
The property is accessed from the rear via a gated entrance and driveway, with its own car port. The gardens are mainly laid to lawn, with elevated patio areas and outdoor seating which is perfect for catching the sun.
Location
Strathpeffer is a picturesque Victorian spa village nestled in the heart of the Scottish Highlands, approximately 20 miles northwest of Inverness. Surrounded by rolling wooded hills and commanding views across Strathpeffer Valley, the village offers a rare combination of natural beauty, heritage charm and connectivity.
Once a fashionable 19th-century retreat, Strathpeffer retains much of its period character, with handsome villas, leafy avenues and the landmark Strathpeffer Pavilion – a restored Edwardian concert hall at the cultural heart of the community. The area is renowned for its therapeutic mineral springs, serene walking trails and access to some of the Highlands’ most celebrated landscapes, including Ben Wyvis and the Black Isle.
Residents benefit from a strong sense of community, with local shops, cafes, a primary school and regular seasonal events all contributing to a vibrant village atmosphere. For broader amenities, the market town of Dingwall lies just over four miles away, while Inverness provides a full range of services, retail and transport links including Inverness Airport and a mainline railway station.
