Glaick House lies in Glaick of Kessock close to North Kessock on the Black Isle. The property is in a stunning setting, secluded and private, surrounded by protected woodland and yet within easy reach of Inverness. The property comprises a main house and separate, two bedroom cottage set in beautiful, established grounds with formal gardens, a lochan and woodland.Although within easy reach of Inverness, the area is peaceful and unspoilt, the quiet countryside providing a safe habitat for native species of wildlife, while its network of single track roads and forest tracks makes it an ideal area for cycling, riding and walking. The house backs onto Ord Hill, a protected, forested ridge owned by Forest and Land Scotland, with a network of paths leading to a spectacular viewpoint at the top where there are the remains of an iron age fort.Inverness, which is just a short drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe. This prosperous and expanding city benefits from excellent communications and inward investment and yet, as the city has grown, it has lost none of its Highland cultural identity, seen in its strong sense of community and thriving arts scene.The sellers built Glaick House on a bare land site in 1985. Very much of their own design, the house has been completed to a high standard with well laid out, bright and spacious accommodation. Further improvements have been carried out over the years including a highly insulated dining kitchen extension of Beco wall-form construction. On an elevated site, the house looks out over the beautifully landscaped grounds, while the flagstone terraces at the front of the house soften the divide between the living space and the exterior.
