Situated in a spectacular rural beachside setting, the Old St Nicholas Manse presents a rare opportunity to acquire a large and beautifully renovated former manse, complete with an exceptional C1700 dry stone walled garden. Despite its peaceful location, the property lies only a 15 minute drive from Kirkwall, offering the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience.
Tastefully decorated throughout, with elegantly proportioned rooms and generous ceiling heights, this impressive home provides outstanding flexibility. It can be arranged as a substantial four bedroom family home with an adjoining three bedroom annexe, or enjoyed as a grand seven bedroom house.
The Manse enjoys panoramic sea views across the Bay of Cornquoy towards Burray and the surrounding islands.

Accommodation

Ground Floor - A rear entrance hall with original flagstone floor leads to a WC, large country kitchen with Aga range, utility/shower room with excellent storage, a wood panelled dining room with open fire, a generous lounge with open fire, front hall with tiled floor, and a conservatory overlooking the beautiful walled garden.
First Floor - Four double bedrooms, each with its own en suite bathroom.
Second Floor - A bright kitchen/living area, three bedrooms and two bathrooms - ideal for guests, multi generational living, or holiday accommodation.

The Manse is approximately 9 miles from Kirkwall and 4 miles from the village of St Mary’s.
