Description

Fabulous breathtaking panoramic views of The Minch and the Isles of Skye, Harris and Lewis are enjoyed from this 2 bedroom two storey Architect designed croft house conversion situated in a peaceful remote location in Melvaig on the coast of Wester Ross in the Scottish Highlands.

The home is full of charm and character and has been thoughtfully converted to seamlessly blend the original stone built croft house with the new extension creating a modern rustic style with exposed stone, wooden beams, oak doors, oak flooring and slate.

A ground source heat pump provides under floor heating and there are two multi-fuel stoves for cosy nights in. It also benefits from solar panels.
