extending to the shores of the Beauly Firth. The property comprises a modernised and extended
farmhouse, a range of good quality outbuildings including excellent equestrian facilities,
approximately 40 acres of well-managed grassland, amenity woodland and a portion of foreshore which falls within an SSSI.
The surrounding countryside is peaceful and unspoilt and varies from a dramatic inland landscape to coastal plains providing a haven for many rare species of plants and wildlife as well as offering a wide range of rural pursuits. World class salmon fishing is available on the River Beauly, while the quiet countryside with its network of single track roads and forest tracks makes it an ideal area for cycling, riding and walking. The west coast, with its excellent sailing, is within easy reach and the National Nature Reserves of Glen Affric and Strathfarrar are just a short distance away. Balcarse Farm itself offers excellent amenity with walks direct from the house and the potential for bird watching and wildfowling on the Beauly Firth.
Beauly is a traditional and prosperous town just a short drive from Balcarse Farm and has a good
range of independent shops, hotels and a railway station. Primary schooling is available at Kirkhill
School and secondary schooling is available in both Inverness and Drumnadrochit. Inverness has
all the facilities of a modern city including its airport with regular flights to the south.
Balcarse Farm was bought by the current owners in 2018 and in 2019 they converted the existing
farmhouse from a 1.5 storey to almost a two storey dwelling. Using the same footprint, the layout has been reconfigured to create a superb interior suitable for modern day family living. The
accommodation is beautifully appointed and presented, while the house is highly energy efficient with excellent levels of insulation, aluminium clad double glazing, underfloor heating and wood burning stoves. The house is south facing and filled with natural light, with wide views over its land towards mature mixed woodland on the southern boundary.
