Braids is in a popular residential area of Inverness with easy access to both the city centre and the ring road. The property is in a delightful setting, fully screened by its mature, wooded grounds yet within walking distance of primary and secondary schools, shops, a golf course, the River Ness and Eden Court Theatre.Inverness has all the facilities of a thriving modern city and the mix of old and new has allowed the city to retain much of its historic dignity and strong Highland culture which blend well with modern theatre and the arts. There are good communications by both road and rail and the airport, about a twenty minute drive away, offers regular flights to the south and Europe.The countryside of the Scottish Highlands is varied from the fertile, rolling farmland of the coast to the inland moorlands and rugged mountains. This unspoilt landscape provides a haven for many rare and protected species of wildlife as well as a wide range of rural leisure and sporting opportunities from way-marked walks and cycle trails on the Black Isle, to skiing and adventure sports in the Cairngorms National Park.The current owners purchased Braids in the early 1990’s and since then have improved and maintained the property well and created a delightful garden. Work carried out includes replacing the woodwork including the parquet flooring and staircase in the entrance hall, the installation of double glazing throughout, complete re-wiring, new flat roofs on the utility room and garage, re-tarring the drive, and the installation of a wood burning stove in the sitting room. A recent improvement is the installation of a hydrogen ready gas boiler.
