Welcome to this charming detached house located in Orphir, Orkney. Having once served as a mill, this property exudes character and history. The original mill cottage was restored in the late 1960s and subsequently extended in a sympathetic fashion, including reinstating the Orkney flagstone roof and flooring. It has been owned and cherished by the same family since its restoration.

Millbrig benefits from a spacious reception room, perfect for entertaining guests or simply relaxing with your loved ones. The living room now benefits from underfloor heating and a new wood stove, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The property also boasts three cosy bedrooms, dining room and kitchen, bathroom with underfloor heating and new pressurised water tank, all offering ample space and amenities for a growing family or visiting guests. There is also a garage with space for one car and an adjoining woodstore. Additional heating is provided by an open fire place in the dining room and a total of 5 wall heaters throughout. The external spaces include parking for an additional two cars, and a garden with fresh water stream.

With a generous 2,271 sq ft of living space, there is plenty of room to make this house your home. The property's age adds to its appeal, showcasing traditional architecture and a sense of heritage that is hard to find elsewhere. As well as proximity to Kirbister Loch, the location is special for its uninterrupted view across moorland to Ward Hill, where many birds including hen harriers and the short-eared owl are often sighted. Situated in a picturesque location, this house offers a peaceful retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Whether you are looking to enjoy the tranquillity of the countryside or explore the rich history of Orkney, this property provides the perfect base for both.

Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain).

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
