An opportunity to acquire a wonderful two-bedroom detached house with detached bothy cottage, set within grounds extending to approximately 1.41 Ha (4 acres) and benefitting from far reaching views over the surrounding countryside.
Situated in a wonderful rural location, with far reaching views across to the Sound of Jura, Lealt offers buyers an opportunity to acquire a substantial two-bedroom island property, sitting in grounds extending to approximately 4 acres.
The property dates back to circa 1850 and is thought to have been occupied by local shepherds over several generations. In later years it has been used as a family home, completely renovated between 1995 and 1997, resulting in a spacious and flexible layout in this glorious rural setting.
Traditionally accessed from the rear, the doorway leads through to a sizable boot room, perfect for the dry storage of outdoor clothing. The boot room flooring features traditional stone flag design, with a sash window overlooking the rear garden of the property.
A hallway leads through to the family kitchen, which occupies prime position on the southeast facing corner of the property. The kitchen design features a range of traditional farmhouse-style wall and floor units, complimented by a solid wood worktop. A double Belfast sink sits within the design, creating a focal point within the room.
Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining room features an oil-fired Rayburn stove, offering warmth and comfort in equal measure. A separate oil-fired boiler feeds the central heating system.
A central hallway gives access to the family lounge, which features a large freestanding woodburning stove set within a stone fireplace. The room extends to a study area, creating the perfect space for a home office or craft area. A glazed entrance vestibule is positioned at the front of the property, offering glorious views across the front garden and creating a formal entrance to the house.
The staircase leads from the hallway to the upper floor, where a central landing links two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Each room benefits from open views across the front gardens, with far-reaching views across the local countryside to the sound of Jura. The upper floor rooms benefit from high ceilings, giving them a spacious feel.
A small cupboard in one of the bedrooms houses the hot water heating cylinder, while an additional cupboard in the front hallway offers storage space as required.
Given the unique island, interest in the property is likely to be high and early viewing is recommended.
External
Externally, the property sits within mature gardens, bordered on the east by a sizable burn, which provides one source of energy via the hydro turbine. To the rear of the house, a substantial outbuilding houses the terminations for the various electricity supplies, as well as providing valuable workshop and storage space.
A detached bothy is located within an area of ground on the opposite side of the road, with scope for conversion to a letting unit, subject to the necessary planning consents. The bothy benefits from a new roof and windows, creating a functional space which could also be considered for craft or home office use.
In total, the grounds extend to an area of approximately four acres, creating a wonderfully private space in this much sort after island location. The land is split into two parcels, with the main house sitting in around three acres, and the bothy sitting in around one acre.
Services
Specifications for the property include private electricity consisting of a combination of wind turbine, water turbine and solar panels, charging a substantial bank of batteries, private septic tank drainage, private water by borehole, BT phone and internet connectivity
