Description
Description
Thorro House presents a very special opportunity to acquire a contemporary residence set against the stunning backdrop of the Scrannabhal and Roineabhal hills on the southeastern coast of Harris.
Constructed in 2005 by the current owners, Thorro House features a high-quality Scotframe structure, offering excellent insulation, double glazing and elegant engineered oak flooring throughout. This modern family home comprises, on the ground floor, a welcoming reception room with fireplace and log burner; a contemporary fitted kitchen with range cooker, island with breakfast bar and adjoining family/TV area; a separate dining room; and three thoughtfully designed bedrooms (one en suite), together with a family bathroom. While the principal living accommodation is located on the ground floor, the expansive first floor provides a highly versatile open-plan office, games room or studio space, along with an additional bedroom, offering excellent potential for reconfiguration, including the creation of a further en suite if desired.
The house sits within easily maintained grounds, which include a charming garden cabin and a practical workshop, ideal for a variety of uses. The setting is both private and scenic, with uninterrupted views of the surrounding hillscape, creating a peaceful and immersive environment.
The sale represents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-appointed modern home in an exceptional Hebridean setting, combining high-quality construction, flexible living space and a truly outstanding natural backdrop, well suited to both permanent living or as a distinctive coastal retreat.
Location
The Isle of Harris is part of the Outer Hebrides, an archipelago off the west coast of mainland Scotland. Accessible by ferry from the port of Uig on the Isle of Skye (which can be reached by road bridge) and the mainland port of Ullapool or via flights to Stornoway (45 miles), Harris is renowned for its dramatic landscapes, including rugged mountains, rolling moorlands and stunning beaches. Luskentyre and Seilebost are particularly renowned for their white sands and turquoise waters. Harris is the home of the world-famous Harris Tweed, a handwoven luxury fabric which is still produced on the island today. Harris offers a variety of outdoor activities such as hiking, cycling and wildlife watching, making it a haven for nature enthusiasts. The nearby village of Tarbert (9 miles) serves as a gateway between the islands of Harris and Lewis, and offers essential services such as a post office, bank, small shop and medical facilities. Tarbert also hosts one of the main ferry terminals on the island with regular services to Uig on the Isle of Skye.
