Keeper’s Cottage, a charming former croft house nestled in the heart of the Northwest Highlands has been brought to market.
Situated in the picturesque hamlet of Elphin, this south-facing retreat enjoys an elevated position, offering breathtaking views over sweeping croft land and the dramatic mountain backdrop beyond.
Just a stone’s throw away lies the renowned Knockan Crag National Nature Reserve, a jewel within the Northwest Highland Geopark and a haven for nature enthusiasts.
Rural estate agents, Bell Ingram is marketing the property for offers over £240,000.
Keeper’s Cottage combines traditional charm with modern comforts.
Thoughtfully extended from its original crofting design, the property now boasts a spacious living room with an exposed stone fireplace and wood-burning stove, a welcoming dining kitchen featuring an oil-fired Aga, a utility room, and a family bathroom on the ground floor.
Upstairs, three bedrooms, including a cosy single, provide ample accommodation.
A floored attic, accessible via ladder, has been transformed into a tranquil home office, complete with a gable window framing spectacular mountain views.
Surrounded by a beautifully maintained garden, the property features two traditional stone outbuildings, a wooden shed for extra storage, and a walled vegetable garden – a delightful space for cultivating produce while soaking in the highland surroundings.
For equestrian enthusiasts or those seeking additional space, an adjacent plot with a stone outbuilding, ideal for conversion into a stable, is available by separate negotiation.
