Do you fancy owning an Inverness Victorian villa?
Moving to the Highland capital, a detached Victorian B&B in Inverness has made its way onto the market for offers over £675,000.
Ardemeanach House dates back to 1868 and selling agents CCL Property said the property is “perfect for a range of buyers”.
CCL Property is also in charge of this listing and commercial director Coralie Pickering said: “This place is so beautiful.
“It’s near the city centre and as the owner is looking to retire, it’s an opportunity for someone who could also turn it into a lovely family home.”
One of its many pieces of history come in the form of a fireplace – which came from the Bishop’s Palace in Inverness.
Owner Andres Skinner said: “We’ve been running the B&B here for over 15 years after moving here in 2005.
“The previous owner run the bed and breakfast for 30 years and before that it was owned by the bishops from the cathedral.”
The villa boasts original features including wood panelling, high ceilings, cornicing, deep skirting, solid doors and decorative arches.
As well as eight bedrooms and its own cellar, the guest house on Fairfield Road also offers private owner’s accommodation with two bedrooms and a shower room.
Village cafe and shop venture

The cafe seats 12 customers internally with a large decked area providing further capacity outside.
Meanwhile, the village shop also provides the services of the local post office. The flat, which sits over the trading areas, has four double bedrooms.
Waterfall Cafe and Foyers Stores have had the same owners since 2013, but it is now their desire to retire as they “reluctantly” bring the property to the market.
