Rosenberg is the former Estate Factor's house for the Cromarty Estate and was built circa 1850. Of red sandstone construction under a slate roof, the property is beautifully positioned on the edge of the delightful Black Isle village of Cromarty and enjoys stunning views of the Cromarty Firth and beyond.
The property has been cleverly designed to take full advantage of the position and most of the rooms have double aspect windows which maximise the light and sunshine.

The sitting room is of generous proportions and features include open fire with Westmorland slate surround, hearth and working window shutters. The formal dining room is the perfect size for entertaining guests and has ample space for a large table and chairs as well as an open fire, brick fireplace and wall shelved cupboard.

The dining kitchen is fitted with pine units and a stainless steel sink and ceramic hob and there is a large utility room with two porcelain sinks and hardwood drainers located off.
