Even before stepping across the threshold, it’s easy to see that one Fort Augustus property is offering buyers a winning combination.
A luxurious two-bedroom apartment that’s part of the deluxe Highland Club complex with tennis court, loch-side restaurant, 20 acres of grounds, it is up for grabs at £20,000 less than the Home Report valuation.
Apartment number four is housed in The Old School, St Benedicts Abbey, one of the most iconic and historic buildings on the shores of Loch Ness, originally a military garrison and through time becoming a Benedictine Monastery and public school for boys.
Today, the building is home to a number of luxurious holiday apartments offering splendid on-site facilities in the heart of the bonnie village of Fort Augustus. Priced at offers over £240,000, apartment number four is located on the raised ground floor in the former classroom and laid out over three split levels.
The accommodation is modern, bright and spacious and while contemporary in appearance it maintains many period features such as high ceilings, original sash windows and stone mullions. The ground floor gives access to the living room, a cosy room with electric fire and one of only a few apartments with separate living space. There is a sizeable double bedroom with en suite modern bathroom.
On the lower ground floor is the kitchen/dining area. The kitchen has plenty of base and wall units and a granite worktop with the added comfort of an adjoining dining space, there is also a family bathroom. Both bathrooms have beautiful slate floors. The top floor has a relaxing reading area at the top of the stairs which leads to a galleried space over-looking the dining room, where a further bedroom is located.
A home at the Highland Club is no ordinary home as when you buy a home here you also buy into the facilities that are on offer such as an indoor heated swimming pool; gym, sauna and steam room; giant outdoor chess set; barbecue area; kids’ adventure playground; tennis court; boat moorings; trout fishing; beauty spa; club room with snooker table and on-site Boat House restaurant right on the shores of Loch Ness.
This apartment is currently used as a holiday home and holiday let business. Abbey Management facilities are based on-site and offer a management service for the rental of the property.
