About
Set against the picturesque scenery of the surrounding Lochs Hills, we are pleased to welcome to the market this detached bungalow and adjoining Croft.
The property requires some upgrading but provides a generous amount of living space.
The property is accessed at the front through a UPVC glazed door into the entrance vestibule which in turn leads to the welcoming hallway.
From the hallway there is access to the lounge, three bedrooms and shower room. The spacious kitchen diner is accessed from the lounge and offers a great space for cooking and entertaining.
The rear entrance vestibule is located off the kitchen. Heating throughout the property is offered from the oil fired central heating with additional heating offered from the open fire in the lounge.
All windows and external doors are UPVC double glazed. The property has recently been decrofted with the adjoining Croft being offered for sale along with the house and garden grounds.
The Croft extends to approximately 19.91acres and benefits from a generous sized outbuilding. Purchase of the Croft Tenancy will be subject to approval by the Crofting Commission.
The garden grounds are laid to the front, side and rear and are formed of lawn and mature trees, hedging and shrubs. There is a drying area in place in the back garden.
There is ample space for off-road parking beside the house. Grimshader is located in North Lochs which is a short drive from Stornoway where all amenities are available.
The neighbouring village of Leurbost has a well stocked mini market and fuel pumps. The location is convenient for access to most of the routes around the island including Uig and Harris.
