The unique Ross-shire property, which is on the market with Inverness based agents, Bell Ingram, for offers in the region of £160,000, offers buyers the perfect opportunity for development.

Coming complete with a modern extension and a two bedroom apartment, the property is ideal for buyers looking for a renovation project, whether it be to transform the property into a large family home or use the extensive space for a business.

Though in need to upgrading, the station building and modern extension, which was put in place 15 years ago, comes with six rooms offering an ideal space for small businesses.

Joanne Stennett, Property Manager for Bell Ingram in Inverness, said: “The Station Building is certainly one of our more unique and unusual properties.

“It really offers a blank canvas and there is an endless list of what can be done with the property (subject to necessary consents).

“Commercial buyers could start up any number of businesses; there could be potential for a quirky boutique or a gift shop which would be perfect for catching the tourist trade.

“Once renovated, it has potential to make a beautiful two bed flat with an office space perfect for smaller businesses.

“There is also scope for the creative house-hunters to make the property into a larger family home for bigger families.”
