Few places capture the spirit of the North West Highlands quite like Ullapool.
Set on the shores of Loch Broom and surrounded by rugged mountains, the village has become a gateway to the Highlands and Islands, combining a thriving community with some of Scotland’s most spectacular coastal scenery.
Perched above the village in the sought after Braes area, this detached bungalow enjoys an elevated position where uninterrupted views stretch across Loch Broom towards the surrounding hills.
From its landscaped gardens to its light filled living spaces, the property has been carefully designed to make the very most of its remarkable setting.
Stepping inside, the house immediately feels welcoming.
The spacious lounge centres around a traditional stove set against a striking stone feature wall, creating a room that is equally inviting on bright summer afternoons or during the darker Highland winters.
Large windows frame the changing colours of the loch, ensuring the scenery remains a constant presence throughout the home.
The connection to the landscape continues through both the conservatory and the separate sunroom.
Each provides a peaceful place to sit and enjoy panoramic views across the water, whether watching fishing boats return to the harbour or simply taking in the ever changing Highland skies.
The kitchen combines practicality with character.
A Belfast sink sits beneath a large window overlooking Loch Broom, while generous worktops and storage ensure the space functions comfortably for everyday life as well as entertaining family and friends.
Three well proportioned double bedrooms provide flexible accommodation, making the property equally suited to families, couples or those looking to enjoy retirement in one of Scotland’s most desirable coastal communities.
The bathroom and separate WC add further practicality, while modern electric heating and double glazing ensure year round comfort.
Outside, the gardens become one of the property’s defining features.
Extending to around 0.45 of an acre, they have been thoughtfully landscaped over many years by previous owners with a passion for horticulture.
Mature trees, colourful planting, specialist shrubs and beautiful rhododendrons create interest throughout every season, while a natural stone patio provides an ideal place to relax and appreciate the outstanding outlook across the loch.
A gate at the foot of the garden offers convenient access towards the village below, making it possible to enjoy Ullapool’s cafés, shops, harbour and waterfront without relying entirely on the car.
A driveway and garage complete a home that offers both practicality and generous outdoor space.
Ullapool remains one of the Highlands’ most popular destinations.
Its busy harbour provides ferry services to Stornoway, while independent businesses, restaurants, galleries and year round cultural events give the village an energy rarely found in communities of its size.
Surrounded by mountains and some of Scotland’s finest walking, cycling and wildlife watching, it offers a lifestyle that continues to attract people from across the world.
What makes this property particularly appealing is the balance it achieves.
It combines peaceful Highland living with easy access to one of the region’s most vibrant coastal communities, all while enjoying a view that few homes can match.
The property is being marketed by Nested.
