Throughout the property, there are beautiful quality oak finishings. Externally, the home benefits from a garage with an electric door and shelving for additional storage.

About Firhall Village

The majority of the grounds at Firhall Village are communal, and are maintained by  Firhall Village Trust.

Firhall Village  was created exclusively for the over 45s and is situated in a quiet location on the Southern outskirts of Nairn. The development has been designed with a  variety of houses and apartments styles.

The grounds  are landscaped,  and boast attractive mature trees and shrubs, together with new planting and lawns throughout.  The grounds are a natural habitat for native birds, red squirrels, rabbits, deer and  wild fowl.  Owners also have the right to fish for trout on the River Nairn.

A beautiful pond creates a feature in the centre of the development and offers a pleasant place to sit and enjoy the outdoors.

All residents in the Firhall development have the use of the public rooms on the ground floor of Firhall House for clubhouse facilities, including the reception area, spacious lounge, library and a multi-purpose room. This can also be rented for a private function for a nominal fee.
