Rod Christie, a partner with Galbraith who is handling the sale, commented: “The Moorings is a charming renovated cottage overlooking Findhorn Bay. Located in one of the most highly sought after villages in the north, The Moorings commands one of the prime positions in the village.  It has been renovated to an extremely high standard and offers flexible and very well appointed accommodation, suitable for use either as a family home or short term letting.”

The Moorings has been transformed by a programme of renovations and is now one of the most desirable houses in the village, with large windows providing magnificent views over the bay.

The accommodation includes, on the ground floor, a well equipped kitchen with an array of integral appliances. The characterful hallway with exposed stone walls leads to the spacious dining / sitting room with a feature wood burning stove. The triple aspect sun room enjoys stunning views over the bay. There is a high quality shower room and three good sized bedrooms, with the master bedroom also having an en suite shower room. On the first floor is an attic bedroom with a large dormer window and a very spacious attic store.

There is potential to further extend the accommodation if desired, by converting the integral garage, subject to planning permission.

Outside, there is a generously sized garden to the front and rear of the property. The walled rear garden is fully enclosed and has high double gates for vehicle access, offering privacy and seclusion rarely available in a Findhorn village property. The garden includes areas of lawn, a raised seating area to the rear, a further patio / seating area on the bay front and two very useful stone built outhouses. There is a single garage plus a gravelled parking area providing ample off-street parking for several vehicles or boats.

Findhorn is a picturesque traditional village, home to The Royal Findhorn Sailing Club, and two popular pubs. The beach at Findhorn is renowned as one of the most beautiful along the Moray coast and the nearby Culbin Forest provides a network of trails for walking and biking. The area is home to rare wildlife including butterflies and dragonflies, wading birds, seals and otters. At the southern edge of the village is the Findhorn Foundation and Moray Arts Centre, a haven for arts, cultural and social events. The village has a strong sense of community with many amenities to support a variety of interests.

The Moorings is for sale through Galbraith at a guide price of £650,000.
