Charming detached, converted country house with shorefront & stunning panoramic views

Situated in the heart of the Highlands, and enjoying arguably one of the most exceptional elevated positions above Loch Lochy, the sale of Invergloy House offers a striking detached converted country house. Boasting stunning views across the loch to the mountains and countryside beyond, the location is utterly private and enjoys around 50 acres of grounds, plus shorefront with a boat house. The property itself, converted from a coach house and stables for the original Invergloy House, is in excellent order throughout, full of charm with original features, whilst benefiting from double glazing and oil fired central heating. Providing spacious accommodation, conveniently arranged over two floors, the dual-aspect formal lounge with wood-burning stove and picture window to the loch views, dining hallway, family room with stove, and dining kitchen with aga, are most impressive spaces on the ground level. A utility room and shower room make up the remainder of this floor, whilst the five bedrooms, three with en-suite shower rooms, and a family bathroom are location on the upper level. Due to the size and location, the property would be ideally suited as a fantastic family home, an idyllic holiday retreat or as an exciting investment opportunity for the buoyant holiday rental market.

Located in the heart of the Great Glen at Invergloy, amidst spectacular Highland scenery, the area evokes a real feeling of seclusion generally attributed to very remote locations whilst only 14 miles north of Fort William, with the neighbouring village of Spean Bridge, a mere 5 miles away. Spean Bridge is a very desirable location with thriving community, offering a wide range of amenities for a village, including a local Spar shop, hotel, cafes, restaurant and golf course. The village connects to the rest of The Highlands through its own train station, bus links and main "A" road. Additional amenities are available in Fort William, 14 miles away. Invergloy provides opportunities for access to an abundance of outdoor activities including the Great Glen and Nevis Range Ski Area, which also hosts the uci Mountain Bike World Cup, downhill and cross country mountain bike riding, hill walking, sailing or exploring the footpaths along the Caledonian Canal only a few minutes drive from the property. Fort Augustus and the famous Loch Ness are about a 25 minute drive north.
