Ose House is in the hamlet of Ose close to Dunvegan on Skye. The property is in a spectacular setting, with westerly, uninterrupted views over Loch Caroy to Rum and Canna and in the south, to the Cuillins.<br/><br/>The Isle of Skye is the best known of the Inner Hebridean islands off the west coast of Scotland. Famous for its romantic, historical associations and magnificent landscape dominated by the Cuillin Mountains, the island is very popular attracting many tourists throughout the year as well as those who seek to enjoy a peaceful lifestyle in unspoilt and beautiful surroundings. There are many outdoor leisure pursuits available locally including hill walking, climbing, canoeing, sailing, mountain biking, and fishing, while unspoilt countryside provides a habitat for native wildlife with regular sightings of red deer, seals, otters and birds of prey.<br/><br/>Portree is within easy reach and has a good range of shops and facilities including a secondary school. Inverness, about a two hour drive from the Skye Bridge, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.<br/><br/>The current owner purchased Ose House in 2013 after the property had been uninhabited for three years, and fully renovated the house, outbuildings and grounds. This work was carried out to an exceptional standard, where bespoke fittings and beautiful interiors provide a contemporary yet classic interior. The well laid out accommodation is both very comfortable and of a manageable size, while original features have been retained or restored and include an impressive staircase, panelled doors, intricate cornicing, and fireplaces.<br/>The potential exists to create a self-contained annexe in the west wing of the house with its ground floor games room, shower room and boot room, and staircase to first floor playroom/bedroom.<br/><br/>EPC Rating = E<br/><br/>
