Fantastic detached two-storey four bedroom house set within a large plot in Baltasound near to all the local amenities including the leisure centre, school and health centre and shops. The Manse was built c.1889 and still has plenty of it's original character in tact. The property is of stone construction under a pitched timber roof with a covering of natural and fibre cement slates. The property is heated via an oil-fired boiler to a wet radiator system. Externally there is a detached workshop/ store and a large garden set within dry stone walls. There is also a sizeable piece of land which is included with the property immediately to the North.

This presents a great opportunity for someone to put their own stamp on it and look after this lovely historic property for many years to come.
