Birch House lies close to Rothiemurchus in the Cairngorms National Park. The property is in a beautiful, secluded setting in the Spey valley, surrounded by its own mature natural woodland providing privacy as well as a habitat for many species of flora and wildlife including pine marten, red squirrels, and a host of woodland birds.The Cairngorms National Park was established in 2003 to protect its beautiful and unspoilt landscape and promote a balance between nature and the community. Local attractions include mountain activities, cycling, skiing, water sports, fishing and bird watching, as well as salmon fishing on the nearby world famous River Spey. The RSPB reserves at Abernethy and Insh Marshes are within easy reach and there are several delightful walks locally. Rothiemurchus, and Aviemore Ski and Activity Centres are nearby and offer recreation throughout the year, while Kingussie and Newtonmore both have excellent 18 hole golf courses and Aviemore is home to the spectacular championship course that hosts many high-profile golf tournaments.Aviemore has a good range of local shops and amenities including a major supermarket, restaurants, hotels, primary and secondary schools, and main line railway station. Inverness, about a 40 minute drive away, has all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south and Europe.The current owners purchased Birch House in 2012, about four years after it was built. The house has been well maintained and improved throughout their ownership, most notably the installation of new window openings and widening of some existing windows. Not only has this filled with house with light and increased solar gain, but the deep windows draw the eye into the gardens extending the sense of space.
