Naast is a scattered crofting township situated on the west shore of the sheltered sea loch, Loch Ewe. The property is in a beautiful setting with far reaching views over the water and the mountains beyond. Local amenities can be found in the village of Poolewe, set on the sheltered south side of Loch Ewe and with views across the bay, which include a general store with Post Office and two hotels, while nearby Gairloch has a wider range of shops and amenities as well as schooling up to secondary level. Inverness, about 1.5 hours’ drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe. The west coast of Scotland is known for its mild climate and stunning coastline with sheltered sandy beaches and island views. The coast is famous for its sailing, while inland mountains and moorlands offer spectacular scenery, hill walking, climbing and trout fishing on the hill lochs.The property comprises a detached decrofted family house and garden ground and the tenancy of the adjoining croft. The decrofted dwelling has been in the ownership of the same family since it was built in around 1975 and has comfortable accommodation spread over two floors. The heart of the house is the sitting room/dining room from which views can be enjoyed over the croftland to Loch Ewe and beyond. The property which has been well maintained could benefit from a degree of modernisation but improvements made by the current owners include the renewal of the roof in 2012, and in 2023 the upgrading of the electrics, the installation of a new oil fired boiler and the replacement of the oil tank. The sale includes the assignation of the tenancy of the adjoining registered croft, Reg No: c944, https://www.crofts.ros.gov.uk/register/viewcroft?ID=C944. The croft includes a two bedroom detached cottage, which requires complete renovation but has the potential to be utilised as ancillary accommodation to the main property or as holiday accommodation subject to licensing. The accommodation within the cottage could consist of a hall, two reception rooms, a kitchen, bathroom and two first floor bedrooms. The purchasers of the croft tenancy will have to satisfy the Crofting Commission as to their suitability as tenants.
