Description

Yvonne Fitzgerald is delighted to bring to the market this beautiful stone built two storey family home in the village of Halkirk. This superb dwelling has an adjacent cottage which could be turned into an annexe and also benefits from a large garden plot which extends to around one and a half acres in size. Rarely available, this lovely period home offers flexible living accommodation over two floors and boasts a drawing room as well as a family lounge. Both these reception rooms have beautiful fireplaces with cosy open coal fires. There is a useful study which could be utilised as a bedroom as well as a generous shower room. A large utility and spacious oak fitted kitchen which features a range cooker and appliances completes the downstairs living accommodation.
Stairs lead up to a spacious split-level landing which gives access to four generously proportioned bedrooms as well as a bathroom which features a double ended cast iron bath. There is also a laundry room which houses the hot water cylinder. This room also benefits from built in shelving. Period features such as coving, white four panel doors and an original staircase are predominant throughout and add character to this wonderful home.
Externally the garden is stunning. There is a summerhouse with power, a bandstand as well as a garden pond. Mainly laid to lawn, there is a stone chipped area, a patio as well as landscaped flower borders. A gate gives access to a plot which is laid to lawn and is surrounded by woodland to each side. This may be suitable for building on subject to planning consent. A garage and large gravel driveway can also be found to the rear of the main garden.
This is a fabulous home with lots of potential and beauty which has to be viewed to appreciate what it has to offer.
Halkirk is around a 10 minute drive from Thurso, the most northerly town in mainland Scotland, Thurso is a great base for exploring the surrounding countryside.
