SITUATION

Toscaig is situated at the furthest end of the line of small hamlets that run south from the village of Applecross on the west coast of the Applecross Peninsula. There is a good infrastructure consisting of Primary School, Doctor’s Surgery, Post Office and Petrol Station, Campsite and Café, as well as the Walled Garden Restaurant. The Applecross Inn has recently been awarded Best Seafood Pub in Scotland. The Peninsula is accessed by the single track A896 which has along the way some of the finest scenery in Scotland.

There is an abundance of recreational opportunities which include mountaineering and hill walking on the Skye Cuillin Ridge and Torridon mountains along with sea kayaking on the Inner Sound between Wester Ross and Skye.

It is rare for such a striking new house in the highlands to come to the market.

 


Garden which leads directly onto the beach.


DIRECTIONS

From Inverness take the A9 north crossing the Kessock Bridge. At the Tore roundabout at the end of the dual carriageway follow the A835 through Contin and Garve. Just over a mile past Garve turn left on the A832 to Achnasheen. At the roundabout turn left on the A890 and after some 18 miles take the A896 to Lochcarron. Approximately 6 miles after Lochcarron turn left on the minor road signposted to Applecross. This road goes over the Bealach na Bar, the Pass of the Cattle, rising to a height of over 2000’, with scenic views across to the Isle of Skye. In Applecross turn left, pass through the village and continue for approximately 5 miles. The property is at the end of the road adjacent to the Toscaig Pier.


DESCRIPTION

The property at Toscaig is a fine spacious property nearing completion. All the fixtures and fittings will be finished to a high standard. In a simple and elegant way this house combines the vernacular architectural style with modern features such as large double glazed sliding doors and underfloor heating. The layout makes maximum use of the sunlight, as all the main rooms are south facing, with views across the sea to the Isle of Skye. The functional rooms (2 bathrooms, utility and storage room, hall and staircase) are located at the back of the building in the north facing wing. The ceiling height of the ground floor is higher than standard which underlines the spacious and airy atmosphere of this house. The garden leads directly onto the beach on which otters and seals are frequently seen.

There is full planning consent for a studio (workshop) in the grounds (12m x 6.20m (39’4” x 20’4”)

Viewing of this fine property is highly recommended.
