Briar Cottage is a detached three bedroom bungalow located in the crofting township of Fernilea. Set down below and on the loch side of the township road the property enjoys uninterrupted views over Loch Harport and has a stunning view of the whole of the Black Cuillin range.
The conservatory is the perfect place to watch and admire some of the fantastic sunrises as the sun peaks out from behind the Cuillin’s illuminating the sky with an array of stunning and vivid colours. If you are lucky you might even catch a glimpse of porpoises as they follow a school of mackerel down the loch or one of the local resident sea eagles flying overhead.
The property is fully double glazed and benefits from oil fired central heating with a new boiler fitted in 2021.
With spacious living accommodation and three bedrooms, one of which is en-suite, Briar Cottage would make a lovely family home or great holiday home.
