Lochinver, Lairg, IV27 4LP

Set on an elevated plot that immediately sets it apart, this detached bungalow looks out across Loch Inver and to the wider coastal landscape beyond. From both the front and rear, the setting opens up into a broad sweep of water, hills and shoreline, giving a constant sense of space and changing light. It’s a position that’s difficult to replicate, combining a sense of privacy with a clear visual connection to the harbour and surrounding countryside.

Outside, the grounds wrap around the property, with space to the front, side and rear. A large concrete driveway provides parking and easy access from the nearby road, while the raised position ensures the views remain a constant feature from both inside and out.

The entrance vestibule leads into an inner hallway where the design opens up straight away. Timber detailing replaces solid stud walls, allowing views through into the kitchen and beyond. This striking design keeps the space feeling open rather than enclosed.

The kitchen is arranged in a galley layout, with cabinets running along both sides of the room. Dark grey cabinets are paired with wood effect worktops, giving a strong, practical finish. The built-in oven and induction hob are set neatly into one side, with space alongside for a washing machine under the counter. The standout feature here is the window line, stretching wide across the wall and framing a clear view over the water and across to Lochinver itself.

Beyond the kitchen, the space opens fully into the main living area. The room is arranged to give flexibility, with tiled flooring underfoot and enough room for seating and furniture without restriction. Windows on two sides keep the room bright throughout the day, while the opening through to the dining area maintains a sense of connection across the full space.

The dining area continues that openness, with a fully glazed wall bringing the outside straight into view. French doors open directly onto a raised timber decking balcony, where the outlook across the loch becomes the focal point. From here, the view stretches uninterrupted across the water, with the village and surrounding landscape sitting just beyond.

The main bedroom is positioned at the other end of the home, and takes full advantage of the setting with a wide window looking out towards the water and the village beyond. Cream painted walls keep the room simple, while the built-in wardrobe with timber doors provides storage without taking away from the usable space.

The second bedroom is slightly smaller but is still a full double room, currently arranged with two single beds. It carries the same neutral finish, with a built-in wardrobe and radiator positioned near the door.

The bathroom has been finished in a modern style, with grey textured panels lining the walls. The bath runs along one side, fitted with a black tap and mixer shower, with a matching black edged screen. A tall white vertical radiator sits near the door, while an integrated unit houses the sink and toilet with storage below. Above, a lit mirror adds a clean finishing detail and there’s a large frosted window that brings in natural light.

The property benefits from double glazed UPVC windows throughout, with patio doors at both the entrance and living area enhancing the connection to the outside space. Heating is provided by an air source heat pump supplying radiators throughout the home, with hot water stored in a pressurised cylinder within a kitchen cupboard. The roof mounted solar panels also add to the home’s energy efficiency.

For buyers looking for a home where the setting is vital, this is one that delivers from every angle. As you stand on that decking and look out across the loch it’s instantly clear why homes in positions like this are so rarely available.
