Rare opportunity to purchase a stunning contemporary two bedroom architect designed property located in the tranquil township of Duisdale Beag on the Sleat peninsula in the south end of the Isle of Skye.
Taigh-Saoir is an impressive detached two bedroom property constructed circa 2001. This deceptively spacious property occupies a convenient location being approximately 7 miles from the Armadale ferry crossing to Mallaig and approximately 9 miles from Skye’s second largest village, Broadford.
The focal point of the house is the open plan living/dining area from where triple aspect windows allow for the room to not only flood with natural light but take full advantage of the wonderful rural views on offer. This home has been completed to an exceptionally high standard with electric space heating and double glazing, combined with a carefully planned interior to create a delightful home.
Externally, the property boasts ample space for parking via the gravelled shared access driveway. The garden grounds are mainly laid to grass with many mature trees, shrubs and bushes. There is a timber walkway which leads out from bedroom two and this provides the perfect spot for enjoying the peaceful surroundings.
If you are looking for a stylish home with well-appointed accommodation, stunning rural views with easy access to nearby facilities and woodland walks – then this is the property for you.
Viewing is highly recommended.
