Talamh Grais is in a beautiful setting close to Inverness. The property lies off a quiet single track road leading to the 18th century fishing hamlet of Alturlie and on an elevated site above the shores of the Moray Firth with stunning views to the Great Glen, the mountains of the west and the Black Isle. There are coastal walks directly from the property and regular sightings of wildlife including dolphins, herons, deer and osprey.Inverness, just a ten minute drive from Talamh Grais, 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 fifteen minute drive away, has regular flights to the south and Europe. Primary schooling is available at nearby Balloch School, and secondary schooling at the highly regarded Culloden Academy.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.Talamh-Grais was built to the owners’ design in 2010 by William Gray Builders in conjunction with award winning architects Keppie Design. The house has been positioned to sit comfortably in the landscape, while the interior with its open plan living accommodation, first floor gallery and extensive use of glass takes advantage of the stunning views and fills the house with coastal light. The accommodation is well laid out and beautifully appointed with high quality fittings throughout.
