Charming traditional detached cottage

Situated in the heart of the Great Glen at Invergloy, West Lodge forms a charming detached cottage, nestled in garden grounds with private parking. Dating back to the 1800s, this traditional property benefits from double glazing, electric wet central heating and is in very good order throughout. Updated and modernised over recent years, West Lodge provides deceptively spacious accommodation, conveniently arranged over two levels and presents a rare opportunity to acquire a unique property in this beautiful part of the West Highlands. The dual aspect lounge/diner is a most attractive feature. Due to its size and location, the property could provide a fantastic permanent home, idyllic holiday retreat or an exciting investment opportunity in a buoyant self-catering market.
Located in the heart of the Great Glen at Invergloy, amidst spectacular Highland scenery, the area evokes a real feeling of seclusion generally attributed to very remote locations whilst only 13 miles north of Fort William, with the village of Spean Bridge, offering a range of amenities including shops, hotels, restaurants, primary school etc a mere 5 miles away. Invergloy provides opportunities for access to an abundance of outdoor activities, with Loch Lochy, the Great Glen and Nevis Range Ski Centre all in close proximity.
