Sandale, 5 Pier Road, Aultbea, Achnasheen, IV22

Sandale is an attractive semi-detached house in the coastal village of Aultbea in Wester Ross. The property is in a spectacular setting, on a spit of land which extends into Loch Ewe with direct access to the loch and stunning views across the water to an outline of mountain peaks. There is a stone jetty just a short walk from the house and, with permission from the local fishing association, boats can be launched from here.
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. Aultbea is in the heart of this landscape with easy access to the very best it has to offer.
The village has a good range of amenities including a general store, post office, hotel, doctor’s surgery and garage. There is a primary school at Bualnaluib, one mile from Aultbea, and secondary schooling is in Gairloch for which there is a free bus service. Further shops and amenities are available in Gairloch, Ullapool and Dingwall, while Inverness has all the facilities of a major city, including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.
Sandale has been in the same family for many years and, although now in need of modernisation, has comfortable and well-maintained accommodation. The sun porch is a welcoming entry to the house and provides a year-round sitting area with lovely views across the loch. The sitting room and kitchen are adjacent to each other, while the remaining ground floor accommodation includes a bedroom with en suite WC and separate wet room, office and generous storage. The three, comfortable, en suite first floor bedrooms are reached by a split staircase separate with one bedroom to the rear and two bedrooms at the front of the house.
