Hillfoot is a historic property built in the early 1800s in the former herring fishing village of Shieldaig.
Semi detached, it offers open plan dining kitchen, two reception rooms and five bedrooms (one en suite) and gardens laid to lawn and mature shrubs. With private boathouse and immediate proximity to the community pontoon, it is ideal for kayakers, sailors and sea anglers.
The property is 176 Sq M over two and a half storeys with a single storey extension to the rear. A much-loved family home since the 1980s, Hillfoot offers a purchaser the chance of upgrading but benefits from modern electric panel radiators.
On the ground floor, the entrance porch gives access from the street to an open plan dining kitchen. The sitting room is accessed from here and benefits from a multi fuel stove with back boiler serving a radiator. A second sitting room opens to the rear, giving views to the back garden, laid mainly to grass. This second sitting room leads into a passage giving access to the fifth bedroom (ideal as a home office) and on to a utility room, shower room with WC, back door, separate WC and pantry with return access to the dining kitchen.
The main stair from the dining kitchen leads to the first floor landing, where there are two double bedrooms. The principal bedroom offers an en suite shower room, the other, fitted wardrobes, while both bedrooms have westerly views on to Loch Shieldaig and the Applecross Peninsula. There is a family bathroom with bath, shower and WC.
The main stair continues, with access to a landing on the third floor and two further bedrooms in the roof space, with Velux windows giving westerly views.
Unrestricted on street parking sits between the property and the private front garden. The front garden gives access to a shingle beach on Loch Shieldaig. Hillfoot’s private boathouse could also be used for vehicle parking (subject to access) and has an integrated log store. The rear garden benefits from a shed / workshop and extensive lawn with drying green.
