Substantial, spacious detached property, delightfully situated on the beautiful Island of Berneray. The property enjoys stunning views across the Minch to the Isle of Skye and to Bays Loch and the Isle of Harris.
An Caladh is an immaculately presented family home which could be equally well suited for B&B use. The property is in an excellent state of maintenance and decoration throughout and enjoys versatile, generously proportioned accommodation over two floors. The majority of the property is double-glazed and benefits from oil fired central heating, together with an open fire with back boiler. With ¼ acre of ground running to the shore, the location of this attractive property gives regular sightings of many types of wildlife including seals, otters and varied bird life and the opportunity to watch the comings and goings of fishing boats and pleasure craft at Berneray’s active harbour.
The Isle of Berneray is located in the Sound of Harris with a causeway linking it to the Isle of North Uist. There is a regular bus service, local shop/café. There is a ferry link to Leverburgh from the Island. Lochmaddy, situated some 12 miles away, has a doctors surgery, hotels, arts centre, bank, primary school and ferry terminal to Uig, Isle of Skye.
