Muirneag in in the scattered hamlet of Banavie just outside Fort William. The property is in a beautiful, secluded setting, its grounds extending to the tow path along the Caledonian Canal and with spectacular views over its own land to the Nevis Range. The property, which has been in the same family for generations, comprises a recently constructed, decrofted house, a ruined decrofted house and outbuildings, and approximately 53 acres of owner occupied croftland.Banavie lies on the route through the Great Glen and in the midst of some of Scotland’s most spectacular scenery. Nearby is the Nevis Range Mountain Resort with its world class mountain bike trails, gondola, snowsports and climbing, while there is excellent sailing in the area both on the Caledonian Canal and on the open sea. The unspoilt countryside provides a habitat for rare species of wildlife and the sympathetic management of the land at Muirneag has allowed nature and wildlife to flourish. Fort William has all the amenities of a major centre including supermarkets, a railway station, schooling up to secondary level, a leisure centre, and a range of hotels and restaurants, while Glasgow International Airport is about a two hour drive away.The decrofted house at Muirneag was completed in 2015 and has been sensitively designed to maximise light and take advantage of the spectacular views. The full height entrance hall with galleried landing, the glass panelled doors and the wide windows create spaciousness and brightness, while the understated interior finishes and high quality fixtures create a sense of calm and complement the drama of the surrounding landscape. The house is highly energy efficient with excellent levels of insulation, Norwegian double glazed windows, a wood pellet boiler, and extensive use of glass enhancing the solar gain.
