As the cost of living crisis continues as prices rise across the board, many of us will be wondering if there are cheaper places to live outwith the city of Glasgow.
Properties in Glasgow had an overall eye-watering average price of £205,622 over the last year - which is why this incredible £80k seaside cottage and steading in the Scottish Highlands may be the answer to your property woes.
The bargain house, despite being listed as Aberdeenshire, lies above the Highlands border so anyone who moves can officially claim to be a highlander.
The steading and cottage with open sea views (which was found by property site Cheap Scottish Houses ) comes with 0.4 acres of land - the property is stone built and the rear of the property looks out to open views of the Moray Firth coastline.
The property will take some work to turn it into your perfect off-grid dream house - but it's cheap price is a good starting point.
Although it is very rural in location, it is fortunately close to Rosehearty village for amenities (and for when you crave some social interaction).
Rosehearty is a coastal village with a range of shops, hotels, leisure harbour, golf course and primary school.
The nearest large town is Fraserburgh which is located approximately 5 miles distant and offers secondary schooling, range of shops, business and leisure facilities including swimming pool, golf course, indoor bowling/leisure centre and beach.
The property comprises of: former cottage 9.64m x 4.48m (31’7 x 14’8) and steading measuring 12.5m x 3.91m (41′ x 12’10). There is also a store which measures 4.51m x 3.07m (14’9 x 10′) which is partly block built and adjoins the steading.
