Moss Cottage, 1b Eorodale, Ness, Isle Of Lewis, Ross-Shire, HS2 0XJ

We are delighted to welcome to the market this beautifully presented former village bakery built in the 19th century.

The three bedroom property was renovated between 2017 and 2022 when it was stripped back to the stone wall and restored with a timber kit construction, meeting with all building regulations.

Located in a peaceful setting in the popular and scenic district of Ness near the Butt of Lewis the house has been thoughtfully designed, keeping a traditional feel with some modern touches blending contemporary comfort and timeless character.

The accommodation is both well proportioned and highly adaptable, offering a versatile layout suited to a variety of lifestyles.

The ground floor opens into a welcoming hallway, providing access to a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a classic clawfoot bath and separate shower enclosure.

The principal reception room offers flexibility of use, whether as a sitting room, study or dining room.

From here, the flow continues into the recently fitted kitchen/diner, a generous space ideal for family living and entertaining, with ample room for dining.

A utility room to the rear provides practical storage solutions with a spacious drying area. Bedroom one is also located on the ground floor and is currently utilised as an art studio.
