A distinctive modern home in a peaceful highland setting.
Lime Trees has a refreshing modern design with plenty of floor to ceiling glazing beneath a more traditional slate roof. The front door is within a fully glazed porch that opens to a split level reception hall. An immaculate and comfortable sitting room has an efficient wood burning stove at one end and floor to ceiling windows at the other. Glazed doors connect this room to the sun room which in turn has two external walls of glass and a vaulted ceiling. It is decorated in calm neutral tones and is a lovely space to entertain in, particularly in the summer when its glass doors can open into the garden. On the upper level of the reception hall there is a bright and lofty reception space which could work well as a dining area. The kitchen also has a high vaulted ceiling. Cherry wood kitchen units are topped with black granite and at its heart is a beautiful deep yellow four oven AGA. The kitchen is connected to a utility room with back door. There is space to eat in the kitchen. There is also a double bedroom currently used as a dining room across the hall, as well as a double bedroom currently unfurnished. There is also a study and shower room.
There are two elegant timber and wrought iron staircases at Lime Trees; one on either side of the reception hall. One leads to the principal bedroom suite which is a luxurious room with built in wardrobes, fabulous views and a shower room. The second stair leads to two double bedrooms and a bathroom.
