Description

The Old Barn lies in a beautiful setting in the village of Poolewe in Wester Ross.
The house is on an elevated site and has breathtaking uninterrupted views up Loch Ewe towards The Minch and across the loch to the NTS Inverewe Gardens, while there is direct access to the rocky shores of the loch and walks
along its coastline. Situated on the sheltered south side of Loch Ewe and with views across the
bay, Poolewe has a shop, post office, a café and hotel, while nearby Gairloch has a wider range of shops and amenities as well as schooling up to secondary level. Inverness, about 2 hours’ drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city
including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.

The west coast of Scotland is known for its mild climate and stunning coastline with sheltered sandy beaches and island views. The coast is famous for its sailing, while inland mountains and moorlands offer spectacular scenery, hill walking, climbing and trout fishing on the hill lochs. The unspoilt countryside and coastline are a haven for wildlife with regular sightings of red deer, squirrels, eagles, otters and whales.

The Old Barn has been built on the site of a former stone barn used for drying fishing nets. Completed in 2019, this striking contemporary house with is larch clad exterior and slate roof sits comfortably in the landscape, while its elevation
takes advantage of the stunning views.
The accommodation is beautifully presented with high quality finishes and fittings, while the extensive windows fill the house with coastal light and extend the sense of space into the landscape. The property is highly energy efficient with an air source heat pump, excellent insulation, and the benefits of solar gain.

The Old Barn is currently a highly successful, year round holiday let, managed through the owner’s website. The house has high occupancy levels with many repeat bookings. The potential exists to purchase the holiday letting business by separate negotiation. Further information is available on request.
