Kia-Ora is a detached four-bedroom family home, enjoying an elevated position in the village with fantastic, uninterrupted sea views across the Moray Firth. The property retains many traditional features such as original tiling in the vestibule and stained glass panes in the entrance hall.
The property is accessed through a glazed uPVC door into the tiled vestibule, which opens via a glazed internal door with stained glass panels into the hall. The carpeted hall provides access to all three public rooms, the kitchen, and the staircase to the first floor. The interior doors leading from the hall are wood panelled, with traditional facings. Other traditional features of the hall include panelled walls to dado height and decorative coving.
