Property Details
PROPERTY
This well presented, three-bedroom detached house occupies a generous plot with views of the Moray Firth coastline and just a few hundred meters from the award winning Shandwick Bay. Situated in well maintained garden grounds, this neutrally decorated property comprises, hallway, lounge, dining room, 3 bedrooms (one en-suite), shower room, kitchen/dining room and utility room. The spacious lounge is double aspect with picture windows to the front and patio doors to the rear garden, giving an abundance of natural light as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west. The modern classic kitchen design with wall and base units, double stainless-steel sink, integrated hob with cooker hood, single oven and dishwasher, has ample space for a family dining table. Additionally, it includes a convenient utility room accessed via the kitchen for laundry and storage needs, adding practicality to the living space. Two large storage cupboards are found within the entrance hall, following on from here you come to the principal bedroom with large en-suite also situated to the front where you have the pleasure of the sea views and can catch the sun rise. Down the hallway, there are a further two double bedrooms each with built in wardrobes both having easy access to a shower room with WC, pedestal wash hand basin and shower cubicle with thermostatic shower. The property benefits from oil fired central heating and double glazing throughout. Externally, the enclosed rear garden has a slabbed patio area perfect for outdoor dining plus an area laid to lawn with mature shrubs and trees. The front garden is defined by hedgerow and fencing with grassed area and tarmac driveway leading to a block built double garage with electric door, power and lighting.
Balintore is one of three villages on this stretch of the Moray Firth coastline - Hilton, Balintore and Shandwick are known collectively as the Seaboard Villages. There is evidence of settlement in the area since ancient times with Pictish Stones and sculptures on display. Hilton has a primary school, a small, charming stone harbour, and spectacular sandy beaches nearby, a village hall which includes a cafe and incorporates the post office. Balintore also has a village shop, pharmacy, hotel and bar. Activities include fishing, sailing and coastal walks. Local employment has long been based on fishing, but this is now only a small part of the local economy which now benefits from work in the oil/gas/renewables sector at the nearby Nigg Yard. Tain is the nearest town, approximately 7 miles away where the secondary school, Tain Royal Academy, professional, medical, shopping and banking services can be found and a number of recreational pursuits can be enjoyed in the area such as golf, bowls and tennis. The Highland capital, Inverness is 34 miles to the south all major transport links can be found. A commuter train goes from Tain and Fearn (2 miles from Balintore) to Inverness daily.
