Detached house for sale in Davies Brae, Mallaig PH41

Substantial Detached Property - Residential & Commercial

The subjects for sale form a substantial detached property, ideally located in the popular fishing port of Mallaig, on the West Coast of Scotland. Enjoying an elevated position, with stunning direct sea views towards the Isle of Skye, Siarard presents a most unique property, comprising a modern first floor apartment, with vast commercial area below, set in generous grounds. The residential apartment provides deceptively spacious accommodation, conveniently arranged over one level and benefits from double glazing fitted in 2020, electric heating, new carpeting throughout in May 2023, plus recent upgrading and decoration. A most attractive feature is the triple aspect, open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining room which offers quality fitted units, solid wood work surfaces, Samsung integral appliances, oak flooring, and has direct access to the balcony terrace, with breath-taking sea views. Enhancing the property itself is the ground level commercial area, which presents several different possibilities, including Full Planning Permission to convert it in to 3 self-contained flats. Subject to the necessary consents, the property could also potentially be converted in to one large home. Due to the size and location, Siarard would make a superb family home as currently used, or an investment opportunity in a buoyant self-catering market.

Mallaig is a popular west coast village, situated at the end of the “Road to the Isles” from Fort William to Mallaig. With its coastal situation, it is an ideal location from which to explore this extremely attractive part of the Highlands. Ferries operated by Caledonian MacBrayne and Western Isles Cruises sail from the port to Armadale on the Isle of Skye, Inverie in Knoydart, and the Isles of Rùm, Eigg, Muck, and Canna. The village itself has hotels, restaurants, shops, superb bakery, gallery, primary and secondary schools, while further facilities are available in Fort William, to which there is a link by both road and rail, including the Jacobite Steam Train.
