About this property
Upon arrival, you feel as though you have been transported to a much more rural location. The front garden offers an insight into the small touches that make 1 Highlands Lodge so special, and views through the house and to the fields beyond entice you inside.
You are welcomed into a reception area that opens to a open-plan living space. Flooded with natural light from expansive windows and complemented by a vaulted ceiling, the room evokes the character and charm of a beautifully converted barn. The timber-clad ceiling perfectly complements the surrounding rural landscape.
