We are delighted to offer to the market this very unique five bedroom cottage in the very enviable and sought after location of Midmar. Nestling in an elevated position on the Hill of Fare above Midmar Castle it offers total peace and tranquillity along with a great deal of privacy and above all, stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Craigshannoch Cottage with its charming whitewashed exterior has been a very much loved family home and you feel this as soon as you enter the property. It offers a very cosy and traditional cottage feel but has modern amenities and also benefits from wood & oil fired central heating, double glazing, wood burning stove and two storey triple garage and workshop. Due to its elevated position the property enjoys low cost, Ultra-fast broadband (up to 400Mbps) via a 5G broadband router.
