Three-bedroom home and croft land on Isle of Eriskay with spectacular views goes on the market at offers over £350,000
Carrick and Croft, located on the Isle of Eriskay, is a breathtaking, architect-designed home which offers unbelievable views across the sea out to South Uist.
This contemporary Scottish home, with boatshed and byre, is being presented to the market at offers over £350,000 by Bell Ingram, who expect huge interest from buyers in search of lifestyle and investment opportunities.
The property, which is in a rarely available coastal location, is being sold together with Croft 11 Bun A Mhullin which runs from the shore up to the ramparts of Beinn Sgiathan, the highest summit of Eriskay, with extraordinary panoramic views of the Hebrides, with mountains, shore and seas abundant with wildlife.
Joanne Stennett, from Bell Ingram’s Highland office, said: “Carrick is an exquisite modern property which is clad in sustainably sourced Scottish larch, finished to the highest standard and designed to harmonise with the vernacular architecture of the islands.
“It is situated on Eriskay, a naturally beautiful hilly island in the Outer Hebrides which is around three miles long and 1.5 miles wide. It has untouched sandy beaches, crystal clear waters and breath-taking views. There is a ferry to the Isle of Barra from the pretty harbour. Eriskay has a shop and pub/restaurant and the house is within walking distance of both.”
Carrick is decorated in neutral colours and has quality oak finishings throughout with quarry tiled floors to the public areas and bathroom, and carpeted bedrooms.
The property has an eco-air conditioning/heat-recovery system, top specification triple-glazing and exceptional insulation ensures a comfortable living environment. The Solar PV and Solar Thermal panels provide most of the energy year-round. There are also opportunities to invest further in renewable energy (subject to the usual consents).
The accommodation is laid out over a single story with access through an entrance lobby. To the left is the open plan kitchen/dining room and living room which is separated by a half-height partition wall and book shelving. The living area has triple aspect windows to the front overlooking the sea with views to South Uist. There is a central fireplace with a multifuel stove.
The dining area has plenty of space for a large dining table and has a window to the side and a Velux window above. The kitchen area is partitioned by a half-height wall and has an excellent range of floor and wall units in cream with granite effect worksurface. There is a Zanussi built-in oven with ceramic hob, and provision for under-counter dishwasher and fridge. Dual aspect windows together with double Velux ceiling windows offer plenty of natural light and give lovely views of the surrounding croft land.
Bedroom one is a large double bedroom that sits to the rear of the property and has floor-to-ceiling dual aspect windows enjoying outstanding sea and mountain views. Bedroom two has a window to the side again enjoying great views, and bedroom three is another double room – again with dual aspect windows enjoying with views over the croft and to the hill beyond.
There is a conveniently situated WC with hand basin and heated towel rail just off the entrance lobby and elsewhere the main bathroom is tiled to half height with a large open walk-in shower with mains pressure thermostatic shower.
The hall has a spacious storage area with lighting and a small utility/plant room which houses the washing machine and tumble dryer and also equipment for telecoms, ventilation, solar power and hot water.
To the rear of the property, there is a large decking area with sheltered seating from where you can enjoy the outstanding views. To the front of the property is a tarmac driveway with parking for up to three vehicles. The garden is planted with mature coastal plants, bushes and trees.
