Located near Loch Torridon, around 80 miles west of Inverness, the home provides rustic charm and serene surroundings in the heart of the Scottish Highlands.
The property listing reads: “Camus An Eilean is a traditional C Listed stone cottage with a slate roof.
While it requires some upgrading and modernisation, it offers a rare opportunity to own a beautiful, character-filled home in an idyllic setting.”
The cottage currently features single glazing and two wood-burning stoves but no central heating system, giving it a truly old-world, countryside feel.
Reached via a private track, the home opens into a welcoming hallway that leads to warm, rustic rooms filled with character and stunning loch views.
The sitting room enjoys dual-aspect windows overlooking the garden, loch, and surrounding mountains, complemented by a wood-burning stove set on a stone hearth.
To the left, a front-facing bedroom offers loch views, an ensuite shower room, storage space, and another cozy stove.
Additional rooms include a rear double bedroom, a WC, a family bathroom, and another double with an open fireplace and built-in wardrobe.
The kitchen, complete with a central wood-burning stove, opens onto a patio and includes stairs leading to an attic bedroom fitted with a Velux window and an original cast-iron fireplace.
Outside, a grassy path winds down to the shoreline, where a small jetty and gravel beach provide access to the loch and the private island.
The listing continues: “It’s an ideal place to keep a boat for trips to your own island.
The gardens are filled with silver birch, apple, and pear trees, and the grounds are enclosed with stock fencing. Although not crofted, the site borders croft land and common grazing.”
With its scenic surroundings, private island, and traditional Highland charm, this unique stone cottage offers a rare chance to own a slice of Scottish paradise.
