About
Eastlea is a beautifully presented five-bedroom detached villa situated in the heart of the desirable Highland village of Drumnadrochit.
This traditional stone-built home, with its distinctive dormer windows and red sandstone detailing, showcases character and charm, while offering generous and flexible accommodation ideally suited to family living.
The property has been sympathetically extended over time, creating a versatile layout that blends period features with modern convenience.
On the ground floor, a welcoming entrance leads to a bright and spacious living room with views over the front garden.
A second living space, located within the extension, offers excellent potential for use as a family room, guest suite, or independent living area.
The main kitchen is well-equipped and positioned to the rear of the house, with direct access to the garden, while a formal dining room provides an elegant space for entertaining.
A utility and an additional shower room are also located on the ground floor, forming part of the extended accommodation.
Upstairs, the property offers five well-proportioned bedrooms, two family bathrooms, and excellent built-in storage throughout.
One of the bedrooms opens directly onto a private balcony overlooking the rear garden, offering a peaceful spot to enjoy the surrounding views -this could potentially be transformed into a separate dwelling.
The layout of the upper floor ensures ample space and flexibility for family needs, guests, or working from home.
Externally, Eastlea sits within a substantial plot, with mature front gardens providing privacy from the roadside and a generous enclosed rear garden offering a safe and sunny space for children and pets.
There is ample space for outdoor seating, play areas, or even further development subject to planning consents. The setting is peaceful and private, yet set in the centre of the village.
Eastlea was previously a B&B with showers and rooms downstairs, but the current owners converted it to a family home, the 2 shower rooms are still downstairs so the ability to segregate part of the house for B&B is possible.
Located in Drumnadrochit, a vibrant and well-serviced village on the shores of Loch Ness, the property enjoys close proximity to local amenities including shops, cafés, a medical centre, and both primary and secondary schooling.
Inverness, the Highland capital, is just 15 miles away and provides a full range of services along with excellent transport links by road, rail, and air.
Eastlea presents a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and characterful home in one of the Highlands’ most scenic and sought-after locations, with scope for flexible living and a truly enviable lifestyle.
