Burnside Cottage is a large, detached country property set in extensive grounds and surrounded by countryside with views in all directions. Constructed in 2010, the property benefits from solar panels and includes a substantial static caravan on site. The house is one and a half storeys, lending further charm to its already attractive interior. It is located one mile from Portree and in an outstandingly beautiful rural setting with clear outlooks of hills and dark skies.
Burnside Cottage has a generous 149 m2 of interior space and five bedrooms, with a possible sixth on the ground floor. It also has the potential of a super ecp rating of band A, aided by a large array of roof-mounted solar panels.
The property is enclosed by post-and-wire fencing and surrounded by a lawn that rises to low banks, providing a sheltered garden and a borrowed landscape from the surrounding moorland. A gravel drive surrounds the house.
The house is entered straight into a cheerful living room, laid with an attractive wooden floor, with the main feature being a large cast iron Multi fuel burner finished with brightly coloured tiles that faces the entrance and sits in the middle of the open-plan living and kitchen space. The living area is finished with a stylish white display storage area and teal walls, beautifully offsetting the natural joinery that sets the aesthetic for the comfortable, welcoming, and characterful spaces throughout.
The kitchen has an outstanding easterly facing view of the surrounding landscape; tiled in striking red, black and white with a slate floor, this space is fun but practical with white cabinets, a six-burner hob and range and an island adjacent to the rear of the wood burner. A separate dining room, papered with a faux metal finish, is close by and offers the potential of a six-bedroom if required.
The ground floor has two bedrooms; the first is generously sized and finished in a beautiful mid-aubergine colour. It has a large, mirrored wardrobe that enhances the natural light. The second is a more petite but well-proportioned room decorated in pale blue. This room could equally be used as a home office or study.
The ground-floor bathroom has a delightful coastal feel, with sky blue tongue-and-groove panelled walls, stone-coloured tiles, and a large deep window and display area. The bathroom has a bath with a shower over it, a WC, and a vanity with an inset wash hand basin.
A carpeted timber staircase leads to a delightful, well-lit landing. The two eaves’ bedrooms have charming coombed ceilings and generous sizes. Both of these rooms are spacious, allowing plenty of room for beds and freestanding furniture, and will make comfortable rooms for B&B guests. Each room has fabulous views through large skylights; the furthest room is especially attractive, with its skylights overlooking the east and west of the property. A third smaller bedroom is a delightful shape and could serve as a single bedroom or workroom.
The first-floor shower room has a barn door, a shower enclosure, a WC and a wash hand basin.
Outdoors, there is an adjoining utility room with power, plumbing, and shelving. There is also a very generously sized double garage with an inspection pit and room for a workspace. The property benefits from a static caravan on site, with a living room, kitchenette, two bedrooms, and a washroom.
The garden envelopes the house and borrows the landscape from the surrounding moor, giving it a fabulous, natural feel. Tempered with managed lawns, borders, and gravel, it creates an intriguing contemporary garden with great scope to develop into an inspiring outdoor space for entertaining and play.
Burnside Cottage is a beautiful house in a magnificent setting, in one of the world’s most iconic destinations, but it is also far enough away to enjoy peace and privacy. The interior is delightful, with fun decorative touches and choices of colour that lend energy and surprise in every room. It is comfortable enough to be a generously sized home for a growing family but also large enough to offer potential as a bed and breakfast or holiday let. Given its location, size and appearance, this house will undoubtedly be popular, and early viewing is advised.
