DESCRIPTION
Leven House sits in an elevated position surrounded by a well-presented and established wrap-around garden, mature amenity woodland to the rear and a large, enclosed grass paddock to the front, ideal for a horse or pony. A small stream runs though the rear of the property and feeds into Borrodale Burn which flows along the eastern boundary. Leven House enjoys a relatively quiet location, with only three neighbouring properties, none of which infringe on the views across the picturesque Sound of Arisaig and beyond towards Glenuig Hill and Egnaig Hill.

The building is of relatively modern concrete block construction with a painted render exterior under a pitched timber framed slate roof. The property benefits from double glazed windows throughout.

The ground floor consists of a comfortable lounge, large kitchen with dining area, utility room, one double bedroom with built-in wardrobes and en-suite, WC and a cloakroom. The spacious open-plan kitchen and dining area and is well equipped with both a Rayburn and electric cooker, while the lounge enjoys an open fire, and a side door providing access to the garden. Both the lounge and kitchen benefit from large south facing windows providing ample light and enviable views towards the Sound of Arisaig. There are also two large cupboards at the foot of the stairs.

The stairs lead to a large, bright landing from which you can access a linen room and the three spacious double bedrooms, two of which have en-suites. All the bedrooms are south facing overlooking the garden and grass paddock.

The property was previously a successful bed and breakfast, making the most of the nearby tourist attractions and spectacular views. The en-suite bedrooms lend themselves to restarting this business. Alternatively, this property would provide a spectacular self-catering retreat for family and friends.

OUTSIDE
There is a large mature and well-established wrap-around garden. The main area is south facing and laid to lawn. The garden also benefits from a mature apple tree, well established shrubs as well as a small stream that runs through the rear. The gravel area surrounding the house offers an ideal space for a seating area and soak in the views surrounding the property or entertain friends and family.

A sizeable porch on the north side of the property offers protection from the weather and dry log storage. Parking consists of a car port and a single garage, which is accessible from the utility room. The garage has a side door and an electric door up and over door, under a pitched roof offering loft storage. There is a wooden shed for additional storge.

There is also an enclosed grass paddock extending to approximately 1.9 acres (0.77 ha), and a further 2 acres (0.81 ha) of mixed species amenity woodland. When coupled with the stunning local hacks along the Silver Sands of Morar this would make an ideal property for the equine minded.
