£1m Inverness house up for sale

Woodlands - on the market for £1.1m

A DES RES in Inverness is on the market for £1.1 million — the only house in the city to have a seven figure asking price.

With views across the River Ness and the Ness Islands, secluded grounds and exuding plenty of charm and character, Woodlands is a Grade C Victorian house.

A dream home for many, the property, in Island Bank Road, boasts four large double bedrooms with two en-suites, one single bedroom, three reception rooms, study, family bathroom and TV room, living room, dining room, kitchen, large conservatory and downstairs toilet.

It also has grounds of 1.25 acres and a former air-raid shelter now used for storage.

Sarah Woodcock, Highland Solicitors Property Centre manager, acknowledged few city properties offer so much.

“We have well over 1200 properties being marketed and only one currently above the £1 million mark, this also seems to be true of non-solicitor agents working in the area, their registers also have few or none above £1 million,” she said. “We do however have many properties between the £500,000 and million level.”

The house is being marketed through Murray McCheyne, director of Murchison Law Solicitors in Inverness.

“It’s a fantastic house and there are not too many houses for sale at this price,” he said.

“It has been on the market for a few weeks and there has been quite a lot of interest.

“To find a house as good as this and as close to the amenities of the city centre is superb and coupled with the fact it is in pristine condition. It’s a good family home.”
