Sand, Achnasheen, IV22 2ND

Set in a peaceful spot on the west coast, this detached bungalow offers a quieter pace of life while still being within reach of everyday amenities in nearby Aultbea. Surrounded by open landscape and fresh coastal air, it’s the kind of setting people move for, offering space both inside and out.

A long stretch of front garden runs alongside the driveway as you approach, with lawned sections adding a natural feel to the approach. The driveway leads directly up to the property and on to the detached garage, giving you parking and useful storage in one place. The garden grounds continue around the home, bordered by stone walls and fencing which help define the space.

Inside, the kitchen is finished with white cabinets detailed with wood trim, paired with wood effect worktops. White painted walls keep the room bright, while aqua tiling wraps around the worktop areas to add a splash of colour. There is space for a freestanding cooker along with room for additional appliances, making it a practical working space.

The lounge and dining room form one large L-shaped room, giving you clearly defined areas while still feeling connected. Wooden flooring runs underfoot and the walls are painted in a soft light blue, keeping the space bright. The living area itself has more than enough room for sofas and additional furniture without feeling crowded, while the dining area sits comfortably to one side with space for a full table and chairs. The fireplace sits within the room as a natural focal point, with a tiled surround and hearth, adding warmth and character. Windows along two walls, including a large picture window, allow plenty of natural light.

From here, a hallway leads through to the rest of the home with 3 bedrooms and a bathroom unfolding.

The main bedroom is a good sized double with green painted walls and a wide window that draws in natural light and framing beautiful views. The room benefits from built-in wardrobes with wooden doors, providing valuable storage without taking up extra space. The en-suite adds another level of convenience here, with a shower enclosure finished in white tiling alongside a toilet and sink, making it a great addition to the room.

The second bedroom is another comfortable double room, currently set up with two single beds, showing the size of the space. Light blue walls and a built-in wardrobe continue the consistent feel found throughout the home.

Bedroom three is also a double room, finished in pink tones with a large window bringing in light. A built-in wardrobe again provides storage, keeping the room practical.

The bathroom is designed with a bath and shower over it, fitted with a screen on the side for everyday use. There’s also a pedestal sink and toilet sitting nearby. There’s white tiles around the bath and shower area while the rest of the walls are painted a light neutral colour. The space offers a solid base that can be refreshed over time to suit your own style.

With three bedrooms, a large open living space and a setting that puts you right on the west coast, this is a home that offers both space and lifestyle. If you’re looking for somewhere quieter, with scope to make your own mark over time, arrange your private viewing with Hamish Homes and come and experience it for yourself.
