Harbour Street, Nairn, IV12 4NX

If you’re looking for a unique home in a great Nairn location, set between the High Street and the beach, then this one is for you! Recently refurbished, it combines the character of an older stone built home with a modern internal layout.
From the front, the property is a strong contrast between original and updated elements. The upper floor retains its exposed stonework, giving a clear sense of the building’s age and character, while the ground floor has been finished in a smooth white render with dark grey trim framing the vast windows and doors. To the side, a narrow access lane leads past the property, providing space for bins and access to the rear.

As you step through the front door, you enter the living space which has a distinct design. The ceiling height draws the eye upward to a solid timber beam with white vertical balustrades. The flooring is a light wood effect with the walls painted in a warm off-white. Crisp white skirting and internal doors keep everything clean and consistent while a vertical white radiator sits neatly against the front wall. Also at the front are two glazed sections accessed through internal doors. These create bright, separated areas that offer a degree of flexibility with many possible uses. The living area is a space that stands out for its height, layout and natural light, offering something a little more unique than standard homes.

Just off the main living space, the ground floor WC is finished in a clean, simple style that ties in with the rest of the home. The walls are painted in a soft muted green while the flooring continues in a light wood effect finish. A white pedestal sink sits to one side paired with a matching white toilet, with a white heated towel rail fitted to the wall between.

To the rear of the living area, the kitchen is set out in an L-shape, making full use of the wall space and keeping everything within easy reach. The cabinets are a dark colour adding a sense of quality to the room, paired with brushed chrome handles. The worktops are a warm wood finish complementing the flooring below. Integrated appliances include an oven set below an electric hob

with an extractor above, while the stylish white farmhouse sink creates a natural focal point. To the side, glazed double doors bring in light and lead through to the utility room.

This space continues the same modern design, with matching dark coloured floor standing cabinets and wood effect worktops. In here is also an additional stainless steel sink with a modern flexi-hose tap fitted. There’s space here for additional appliances, helping to keep the main kitchen area uncluttered, while a door provides direct access outside. The room feels bright thanks to the wall of windows, flooding the space with natural light.

From the rear of the living area, the staircase rises to the first floor and creates a strong visual feature. It curves as it climbs, with dark painted treads contrasted by a natural wood handrail. As it reaches the upper level, it leads onto a landing that serves the two bedrooms and the shower room.

The shower room features a walk-in shower with marble effect panelling lining the walls. Chrome fittings include a rainfall style shower head along with a secondary handheld option. The rest of the room is laid out in a stylish, simple fashion, with light blue painted walls introducing a splash of colour. A heated towel rail is fitted to one wall, and there’s a frosted window which brings in natural light.

The first of the bedrooms has a bright, open feel, centred around a tall dormer window to the front. The layout is straightforward and easy to furnish, with clear flat wall space for a bed and additional pieces without the room feeling restricted. A large built-in wardrobe runs along one wall, fitted with sliding doors to maximise usable floor space.

The second bedroom is another comfortable double, with space for a bed and additional furniture. It has a similar large, tall window which is great for natural light. The finish remains consistent, with neutral tones and flooring that ties in with the rest of the home.

Homes like this, with the character of a traditional stone property and a layout that feels completely different to the norm, very rarely come to market. It’s been refurbished to a high standard with a finish that means you can move straight in and enjoy it. Being set right between the High Street and the coast certainly adds to the appeal. If you’re looking for something that stands out for the right reasons, this is well worth seeing in person. Contact Hamish Homes today to arrange your private appointment.
