Grianch lies close to Invergordon in Easter Ross. The property is in an attractive setting, one of a cluster of houses set back from the road and with uninterrupted views across the Cromarty Firth to the Black Isle.Formerly a fishing village and an important naval base during the war, Invergordon is now a major port which has recently been granted Free Port status. The town has a good range of shops and amenities including schooling up to secondary level and a cottage hospital, while nearby Alness has a railway station on the main north/south line. Inverness, about forty minutes’ drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.The surrounding countryside of Easter Ross 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 local way-marked walks and cycle trails, to sailing on the Cromarty Firth and fishing on the River Averon/Alness. For golfing enthusiasts, the championship golf courses at Dornoch, Castle Stuart and Nairn are within easy reach, while skiing and adventure sports are available in the Cairngorms National Park.Grianach is an attractive, traditional property set back from the public road and well-screened by its stone wall and mature hedging and trees. Although it would now benefit from some modernisation, the house has well laid out accommodation retaining many original features such as cornicing, fireplaces and panelled doors.
