Creag Dhubh, Dunachton Road, Kincraig

A Substantial And Characterful Highland Home, Offering Exceptional Space, Privacy And Versatility In A Truly Enviable Setting.

Offers Over £620,000

Nestled within a peaceful and private setting on the outskirts of Kincraig, Creag Dhubh is an impressive four-bedroom, four-bathroom Highland home, offering an exceptional combination of space, character and versatility. Set within generous garden grounds extending to approximately one acre, the property enjoys a tranquil woodland setting while remaining conveniently positioned for the amenities and outdoor pursuits of the surrounding Cairngorms.

The property extends to approximately 370m² providing substantial and highly flexible accommodation arranged over two levels. From the moment you arrive, there is an impressive sense of space and quality, with an abundance of natural daylight throughout.

The heart of the home is undoubtedly the generous open-plan kitchen and dining space, creating an ideal environment for entertaining family and friends. The kitchen is beautifully appointed with shaker-style cabinetry, solid quartz worktops and a feature gas-fired AGA, combining traditional Highland character with practical modern living. A spacious utility room is positioned conveniently at the end of the kitchen, with direct access to the gardens.

The accommodation also includes a bright, double-aspect lounge featuring a striking wood-burning stove, a welcoming reception area, dining room and a versatile snug/study. The extended sunroom provides an additional relaxing space, enjoying views across the surrounding grounds and creating a seamless connection between the house and its outdoor setting.

There are four generously proportioned double bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, complemented by two further family bathrooms. The overall layout provides excellent flexibility for family living, visiting guests or those seeking a spacious Highland retreat.

Further features include full timber double glazing, oil-fired central heating and a feature wood-burning stove, while the quality of natural light throughout the property adds considerably to its appeal.

SELF-CONTAINED ANNEX

A particularly valuable feature of Creag Dhubh is the substantial detached outbuilding, which incorporates a self-contained one-bedroom apartment, games room, sauna, shower room and garage.

The apartment is accessed via a timber staircase and comprises a comfortable lounge, kitchen, shower room and double bedroom, providing excellent accommodation for guests, extended family or potential additional income.

At ground level, sliding doors provide access to the games room, sauna and shower facilities, while separate timber doors lead into the garage. This versatile building significantly enhances the property’s appeal and provides a range of potential uses.

OUTSIDE

The property is approached via a private driveway, leading into extensive grounds and providing ample parking together with access to the garage.

The approximately one-acre garden grounds offer a wonderful combination of privacy, mature planting, woodland surroundings and open areas for recreation and entertainment. The traditional stone walling and established setting complement the architecture of the house beautifully, creating a distinctive Highland environment.

THE LIFESTYLE

Creag Dhubh offers far more than a substantial family home. Its peaceful setting, generous accommodation, self-contained annex and extensive grounds make it an exceptional opportunity for those seeking a private Highland residence with genuine versatility.
