'Secluded paradise' in Applecross on the NC500 named in Rightmove’s most viewed homes for sale list

A beautiful home described as a 'Secluded paradise' for sale in the Highlands has made it onto a list of Rightmove's most viewed homes for July. The stunning house was one viewers couldn't get enough of.

Tigh Beannaichte House on the Ard Dhubh Peninsula in Applecross, which is one of the more idyllic locations found on the North Coast 500 route comes with four bedrooms and is on sale for offers over £595,000.

The highly sought-after property comes with incredible sea views over Poll Creadha Harbour and is surrounded by breath-taking scenery. Built in 2006, the property is finished in stone with silvered larch cladding and has three generous double bedrooms upstairs (all en-suite) on the top floor.

Speaking about the property, estate agents Paton & Co said: "Tigh Beannaichte is a rare find; a truly exquisite family home within a stunning private location with equally wonderful harbour sea views.

"The property boasts a wealth of notable features such as beautiful wooden windows, built-in surround sound throughout the interior rooms, the heather coloured Aga with gas hob, hardwood wooden floors on the ground floor with underfloor heating, triple aspect windows in the drawing room looking out to sea, with sliding doors out to the garden decked area."

They confirmed it also comes with a multi-fuel stove and a built-in generator in the garage for power cuts.

Incredibly, there are also two large ammonite fossils built into the outside stonework.

The description on the listing adds: "This tranquil and peaceful location offers one of the most incredible views in the UK, overlooking the Isle of Skye and the dramatic Cuillin Mountains, Raasay and the Inner Sound.

"Its coastal position means Ard Dhubh and the property enjoys spectacular sunsets all year round, and with little light pollution it is a wonderful spot to see the Aurora Borealis (The Northern Lights)"

Rightmove’s housing expert, Tim Bannister, said: “People across Great Britain have been looking at some truly stunning homes this month, thinking of where they could live if money was no object.

"Being very close to the water is clearly important to those browsing for their dream home, with three of the five most viewed homes this month having private access to the sea.”
