A five-bedroom modern home in a spectacular clifftop setting on the Tarbat peninsula in Easter Ross has been listed for sale at £695,000. The property, named Ros-Mhor, is being marketed by estate agents Galbraith and offers views across the firth to the Moray coastline.
Property details and history
Built in 1982, the house was designed to take full advantage of its dramatic position and coastal vistas. The current owners purchased Ros-Mhor in 2012 and have since carried out improvements while keeping the property in good condition.
The accommodation spans three floors and includes a scenic gallery, wood panelling, a dining hall, and bedroom suites. According to Galbraith, there is potential to create a self-contained annexe in one wing of the house.
Key features and gardens
One of the standout features is a large conservatory, which provides ample space for entertaining while taking in the garden views. Other highlights include a library, ideal for cosy evenings, and a kitchen that doubles as a social area.
The gardens are mostly laid to lawn, with a sheltered vegetable and herb garden, various seating areas, and a sunken garden next to the conservatory. A scallop-edged herbaceous border edges the grass.
Location and amenities
The nearby village of Portmahomack offers basic facilities including a post office, a shop, and restaurants. Tain is approximately 10 miles away with a larger selection of shops and amenities, while Inverness is around an hour's drive and provides all the facilities of a modern city.
Galbraith describes Ros-Mhor as "a contemporary property situated close to the village of Hilton on the Tarbat peninsula in Easter Ross," adding that "the house is in a spectacular cliff top setting with superb coastal views from all the principal rooms." The accommodation, arranged over three floors, includes a tower, minstrels' gallery, wood panelling, dining hall, and five bedrooms, yet remains "of a manageable family size."
Further images and information about the property are available on the Galbraith website.
