Charming traditional cottage with self contained annexe nestling at the foot of Ben Rinnes
Cottage
Entrance porch | Dining room | Kitchen | Master bedroom with ensuite dressing area and shower room | Guest bedroom | Family bathroom | Study I
Sitting room | Bedroom | Cloakroom
Rambling country garden
Self Contained Annexe:
Entrance Porch | Dining room | Kitchenette | Three bedrooms | Bathroom | Cloakroom
Large unconverted stone steading
Paddocks and woodland extending to about 24 acres (9.7 hectares)
Nether Bellandy was originally part of a small farm forming part of the Glen Rinnes Estate. The cottage was renovated in 1994 and has far reaching views to Ben Rinnes.
The exterior of the cottage and annexe is built of stone with a part slate and part stone slate roof.
On entering the property one immediately feels a warm cosy atmosphere and particular features of both the properties include the exposed beams, the red brick fireplace housing the Stovax Stockton stove in the dining room.
The two properties offer the potential buyer real versatility of use. Nether Bellandy Cottage would make a delightful, family home with the annexe offering separate guest accommodation or granny annexe. Alternatively an income could be derived from using the cottage and the house for holiday lets.
The location and size of the properties also lend themselves well to potential use as a bed and breakfast establishment.
