Description

Steeped in local history, The Old Library in Brora holds the distinction of being the location where the formation of the village's golf club was first discussed in 1891. Situated nearby is the renowned championship Brora Golf Course, a spectacular 18-hole Braids links popular with both visitors and locals.
Offering remarkable versatility, this immaculate property not only presents the prospect of a wonderful family home, complemented by income-generating potential from the apartment and retail unit, but also boasts a successful history as a self-catering holiday let for the last four years.
Situated in the heart of the charming village of Brora, on the increasingly popular North Coast 500 route, this light and airy property is tastefully decorated throughout, presenting a delightful prospect for either a comfortable home or a promising investment.

3 Bedroom Townhouse - The three-bedroom townhouse offers spacious and flexible living over three floors, accessed via a rear garden entrance leading to a central ground floor with a modern kitchen/dining room and a convenient shower room. The first floor features an elegant sitting room, a good-sized family bathroom, and the first of three double bedrooms. The second floor provides two further double bedrooms.

Entrance / Hallway - Entry to the property is gained through the enclosed garden, leading to a ground floor entrance that immediately introduces you to the heart of the home.

Dual aspect windows bathe the room in natural light and provide views of the garden and the front aspect. There is ample room for a dining table with seating for up to six, making it a sociable space. The neutral décor and vinyl flooring add to the comfort and practicality of this room.

Shower Room - 1.56 x 1.65 (5'1" x 5'4") - This practical shower room comprises a shower enclosure fitted with an electric shower, a white WC, and a pedestal wash basin.
