Shore Road, Tain, IV19 1EH

This building on Shore Road in Tain is home to one of the town’s most recognisable conversions, a striking 1884 granary thoughtfully transformed into modern apartments while retaining its sense of scale and presence. Positioned on the first floor within this distinctive three storey building, this two bedroom apartment feels practical and comfortable.

There is private communal parking for residents, with plenty of non allocated spaces available. Stone walling and timber fencing enclose the grounds, giving the development a defined feel while still sitting conveniently close to local amenities.

Stepping inside the apartment, the proportions immediately stand out. The lounge is a particularly strong space, with two side by side windows drawing in natural light and enhancing the sense of height within the room. Cream painted walls and warm wooden flooring keep it bright and welcoming. There is plenty of space here for a full sofa suite, media setup and additional furniture without it ever feeling crowded.

The kitchen sits separately, offering a clean and modern finish. Light coloured cabinets with long chrome handles are paired with wood effect worktops, with glossy grey tiling along the splashback areas. A stainless steel sink sits beneath the window, while integrated appliances include a fridge freezer, washer dryer and dishwasher. A built in oven and hob with extractor above complete the layout, giving you everything you need neatly contained within the space.

The principal bedroom is a generous double, finished in neutral tones with soft carpet underfoot. Two large windows allow daylight to pour in, making it a bright and relaxing room to unwind in. A built-in wardrobe keeps clothes and belongings organised. The room also benefits from its own en-suite shower room, providing privacy and convenience. Fitted with a corner shower enclosure, toilet, basin and a wall mounted cabinet, it’s ideal for keeping daily routines simple and separate.

The second bedroom is another impressively sized double, something not always found in apartments. Three windows flood the room with light while storage is again provided with a built-in wardrobe. Whether used as a guest room, home office or main bedroom, it offers flexibility without compromise.

The main bathroom includes a deep bath with central taps, white tiling around the bathing area, pedestal basin and toilet. Grey vinyl flooring grounds the room, creating a clean and easy to maintain space.

Heating is provided by electric convector heaters throughout the apartment with the windows being timber framed double glazed units, in keeping with the character of the building. Full fibre FTTP broadband is available via Highland Broadband, making this an excellent option for home working or streaming. The property is factored, with fees covering buildings insurance and communal maintenance including grass cutting and hallway cleaning, helping to keep the development well looked after at all times. Smoke detection devices are installed within the flat for your safety.

With its generous proportions, distinctive building history and convenient Tain location, this apartment offers more than a regular flat. It combines character from the original structure with the practicality of a modern conversion. If you’re looking for something with presence, space and is ready to move straight into, this has to be one you view.
