House For Sale £380,000
A unique opportunity to purchase a rural 4 Bedroomed Detached House with outbuildings and a partially completed 4 bedroomed Detached Steading Conversion.
The Howe is a delightful 4 bedroomed home which has been extended to provide accommodation ideal for family living. It has the benefit of oil-fired central heating and double glazing. There is also a wood burning stove in the kitchen. The property lies in a sheltered glade located in the rural area known as Pluscarden. This is a popular location due to its proximity to Elgin which is less than 6 miles. Pluscarden has its own Parish Church and village hall.
Along with the house there is also a partially completed Steading Conversion. The property is almost wind and watertight with some internal works carried out. Planning permission was granted in 2013 for a 4 Bedroomed Detached Home.
There is also an additional stone Outbuilding which is currently being used as a Garage and store. This too could be converted into accommodation subject to necessary planning permissions. Next to this is a large timber shed.
The town of Elgin offers excellent facilities including many national chain stores and is at the heart of a popular tourist area with many distilleries located nearby.
