Seann Bhothan is a beautifully renovated one-bedroom cottage occupying a private and elevated position in the peaceful village of Upper Aird, enjoying stunning views across open croft land and towards the Atlantic coastline. Combining traditional charm with contemporary design, this attractive, characterful home has been thoughtfully transformed into a modern, energy-efficient residence, perfectly suited to comfortable year-round living or retirement, with all accommodation conveniently arranged on one level.
The accommodation comprises an entrance porch, spacious open-plan living area with mezzanine sleeping platform, double bedroom and a stylish bathroom. A chipped driveway leads from the quiet cul-de-sac rural village road to the property, while the generous enclosed garden offers a safe and private outdoor space, complete with raised growing beds and a serviced hardstanding area, ideal for a garden room, studio or a variety of other uses, subject to planning consent. (Please note that the storage container shown in the photographs is not included in the sale and will be removed prior to completion).
Designed with efficiency and sustainability in mind, the property benefits from UPVC triple-glazed windows and doors, an air source heat pump providing underfloor heating throughout, and a Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) system, ensuring a comfortable indoor environment all year round. The property is connected to mains drainage.
The house and surrounding garden ground (which amount to a generous 0.4 acres) are currently in the final stages of the decrofting process and, once complete, the property will be mortgageable.
Upper Aird is a quiet and picturesque community on the west side of Lewis, offering a peaceful lifestyle while remaining within easy reach of Stornoway, approximately 20 minutes away by car.
