Gatehouse, Polbain, Achiltibuie, Ullapool

A rare opportunity to purchase a detached cottage with breathtaking views toward the Summer Isles. Although in need of full refurbishment throughout, this property once renovated will offer a fantastic home in a tranquil, rural situation.
The accommodation comprises two parts, having previously been utilised as a home and craft shop. Within the main house is the entrance vestibule, hallway, lounge with fireplace, kitchen, double bedroom and bathroom. The second part of the property, which is accessed by a separate external door, forms one large room which was previously the shop and second bedroom having later been made into one large room to extend the size of the shop. There is currently no central heating system within the property, and the windows are of single glazed units throughout.
Private garden grounds mostly laid to lawn are situated at the front of the property. There is a portion of uncultivated land area at the rear of the property.
In need of complete refurbishment and upgrading throughout, this property has a lot of potential offering an exciting project. The property sits on a considerable plot meaning there is potential to extend into the garden grounds if desired. Due to the condition of the property, it is not mortgageable and is suitable only for cash buyers.
Viewing is advised.
