This outstanding award winning detached house is the epitome of open plan modern living and situated in an elevated position in the stunning rural location of Clashnessie on the Assynt Peninsula in the north west Highlands, an area of scattered crofts and houses.  Assynt is renowned for its striking natural features, including dramatic mountains such as Suilven, Canisp, and Quinag, as well as lochs and coastal inlets.  The area is also home to some of the most beautiful white sandy beaches in Scotland, notably Achmelvich, Clachtoll and Clashnessie which is on the doorstep of the house.  The local economy traditionally centers on crofting, fishing, and deer stalking.  In more recent decades, tourism has become increasingly important, driven by the area’s appeal to hikers, climbers, anglers, and nature lovers. Many local residents are involved in hospitality and the North Coast 500 has brought many tourists to the area.  Taking that into account, the house was granted a short term letting licence by the Highland Council in March this year which can be transferred to the new owner if required and it also has the Electrical Installation Condition Report.

The Black House with its capacious white ceiling and large windows at every aspect of the living quarters bathing the property with natural light and offering  stunning views of the surrounding vista.  The sleeping quarters on the ground and first floor are cosy and restful while also enjoying the views.  The property benefits from electric underfloor heating and a wood burning stove.  This exceptional house would provide an idyllic and tranquil retreat for a couple, a family  or for holidaymakers looking to experience the majestic and imposing beauty of the north west Highlands.

NB.  For clarity, we advise that the majority of the title to this property is de-crofted with two small slithers of land within the title that are outwith the de-crofting direction.  Refer to the plan for details
