Yvonne Fitzgerald is delighted to bring to the market this excellent opportunity to purchase a property portfolio with an income that is also a family home. These stone-built properties were once part of Dunbeath Estates and have previously been used as a blacksmith, joinery, haulage yard, and cafe. These superb properties comprise of a one bedroomed detached home which is currently run as an air b n b business, as well as two adjoining three bedroomed semi-detached cottages, one of which is currently used as owners accommodation. There is a further stone-built outbuilding which could also be transformed into further living accommodation. An adjoining building plot that previously had planning granted, allows any new owner the opportunity to build their own dream home.
All three properties have been extensively upgraded during their time in ownership with The Smithy and Burnside now being run as a successful holiday let business. The properties are all of stone and slate construction and benefit from a large car park to the front, with wonderful gardens to the rear. The rear gardens are surrounded by woodland in an idyllic setting and are very private.
