Thomas Jones of Galbraith, who is handling the sale, said: “This is an excellent opportunity to purchase a welcoming family home in a great location, with stunning views over  Broadford Bay to the islands of Pabay and Scalpay beyond. Tigh na Mara has been a much loved family home for fifty years, and has been upgraded and extended by the current owners. The Isle of Skye is popular with visitors all year round, and the separate award-winning holiday cottage offers the opportunity to generate an income whilst enjoying a superb lifestyle on this beautiful island.”

Tigh-Na-Mara which dates back to the 1800’s is a charming traditional home with three reception rooms and four bedrooms. Of particular note, the sitting room with its open fireplace and the dining room with exposed stonework and wood burning stove, add to the character. The summer sitting room, with large picture window, takes full advantage of the stunning views over Broadford Bay.

Seabird Cottage is a detached bungalow built in 2007. It offers accessible accommodation all on one level, with ramped access. The open plan kitchen/dining/sitting room is the heart of the home, with a feature window, patio doors and Velux windows allowing the influx of coastal light. The property has been used as a self-catering holiday let, with a turnover of £40,000 in the last tax year, and won the customer choice award from Cottages.com in 2021 and 2022.
