The property has wood panelling features throughout and retains its rustic charm. It is fully double-glazed.
4 Coast is accessed via a field gate to the garden ground, which runs around to the front of the property.
A hardwood door leads to the entrance hall where there is an understairs storage cupboard.
To the left of the hallway is the sitting room with a window to the front enjoying open views and a central feature of an open fire with brick surround on a tiled hearth.
The dining room is to the right of the hall and has an open fire as its central feature, on a tiled hearth with a tiled surround. A door leads to the kitchen, which has cream floor and wall units with a wood-effect work surface. A window to the rear overlooks the garden.
From the hall, stairs rise to the upper floor landing, which gives access to two double bedrooms, both with windows to the front.

External
4 Coast sits in enclosed garden grounds extending to 0.88 acres. There is a shed to the side and the remains of a stone byre which has development potential.
The Croft
Croft 4 is available with the property.
The Farmland, which is registered as a croft, extends to approx. 2.19 ha (5.4 acres) and comprises two blocks of land either side of the private tarred road which provides shared access to neighbouring croftland. The land provides a mixture of permanent pasture and rough grazing for livestock and is fenced for sheep and cattle. There are also associated rights to graze sheep and cattle on the adjacent Common Grazings.
The successful buyer should be aware that they will need to satisfy the legal requirements of the Crofting Commission, including being ordinarily resident within 32km of the croft and having the intention of actively farming the land.
The croft has not been mapped with the Crofting Register and the transfer of the Tenancy will require this to be done as part of the Assignation process. The croft boundaries are as understood by the current tenant but may be subject to change if there are objections from neighbouring crofters.
