Dating back to 1880, this renovated farmhouse is perfect for those wanting to live a quiet life.
You can find this traditional stone built property on the north side of the Isle of Coll, well known for its untouched white sandy beaches and tranquil turquoise water.
Set in approximately 1.2 acres of mature gardens, this refurbished farmhouse has been transformed into a contemporary family home with attached barns renovated into interesting entertaining spaces.
The main building stretches over two floors, with the ground floor offering two reception rooms, a sitting room, dining area opening up into the kitchen, gym area, a shower room and utility space.
The smallest barn has been transformed into a wonderful family room and conservatory with a private sauna. The mature gardens surrounding the property can be accessed here. There is also an alternative entrance to the barn making this area self-contained.
Three bedrooms, two of which are double, can be found on the first floor alongside a family sized bathroom and an additional shower room.
A focal interest point for nature lovers is the vast amounts of exotic and uplifting greenery the property encompasses.
The inspiration behind the rear garden seems to be Claude Monet’s Water Lilies. The garden features a red bridge going over a lily pond and a melodious waterfall which looks like a real-life version of his paintings.
The rest of the charismatic gardens include an enclosed hot tub with decking, a greenhouse, native trees, a flower rock garden and a fishpond.
The middle of the two remaining barns has been refurbished with the original stalls and feeders from the previous farm. The last barn is a great open space perfect for entertaining.
This property is on sale for £395,000 via Savills.
