Elegant B-listed Georgian villa set within mature grounds of 1.3 acres
Description
Wardlaw House is a Grade B listed former Manse, originally constructed in 1776, with later additions that enhance its classical symmetry and grandeur. Positioned on the fringes of Kirkhill, this striking detached home offers over 5,000 sq ft of versatile accommodation across three floors, showcasing a wealth of Georgian features including sash windows, ornate fireplaces, and tall corniced ceilings.
Approached via a gravelled driveway, the property is framed by mature trees and a stone boundary wall, with a Doric-columned entrance and a practical rear porch. Inside, the airy central hallway leads to two impressive dual-aspect reception rooms, each with floor-to-ceiling windows, feature fireplaces with log-burning stoves, and views over the landscaped front gardens. The sitting room connects to a formal dining room via double doors, ideal for entertaining.
The heart of the home is a modern dining kitchen, fitted with granite worktops, light cabinetry, and integrated appliances, complemented by a secondary kitchenette, utility room, pantry, and cloakroom.
Upstairs, the first floor hosts five generously proportioned bedrooms, each enjoying elevated views of the grounds, along with a separate dressing room. Two family bathrooms feature freestanding bathtubs, walk-in showers, and dual sinks, blending period elegance with contemporary comfort.
The second floor offers three floored attic rooms and two attic bedrooms, ideal for further accommodation, development or storage.
Grounds Wardlaw House is set within just under 1.4 acres of beautifully landscaped grounds. The gardens are largely laid to lawn and bordered by mature specimen trees, vibrant planting, and a charming stone wall. A gravelled driveway leads to a turning circle at the rear, which in turn provides access to a stone built byre, garaging and further outbuildings which offer excellent potential for conversion (subject to relevant planning consents).
Location
Kirkhill (Cnoc Mhoire, “Big Hill”) is a charming Highland village with a well-regarded primary school, and access to a wide range of outdoor pursuits including walking, cycling, fishing, and golf, approximately 10 miles west of Inverness and 2 miles southeast of Beauly, near the Beauly Firth. Nearby Beauly offers boutique shopping, cafés, and essential services, while Inverness provides extensive amenities, cultural venues, and transport links including a sleeper train to London and flights from Inverness Airport to UK and European destinations
Approximately 200 metres from the property lies the Wardlaw Mauseoleum, built in 1634 for the Lovat Frasers. It is believed to house the remains of Lord Lovat, a key figure in the Jacobite rebellion whose story features prominently in Diana Gabaldon’s Outlander series.
