The Old Boathouse is in the scattered hamlet of Advie near Grantown-on-Spey. The property is in an outstanding setting, just a short walk from the River Spey and in the heart of some of the most beautiful countryside in the Cairngorms National Park.The Old Boathouse is in a beautiful, wooded setting close to the River Spey. Formerly the river boatman’s house, the property has been sensitively renovated to create exceptionally comfortable and well-presented accommodation retaining the character and features of the original dwelling. The focal point of the house is the open plan sitting room and dining room with its woodburning stove creating warmth and atmosphere, while from here double doors open to the conservatory with views over the garden to the surrounding woodland. A main corridor leads to the beautifully appointed kitchen and then to the two en suite bedrooms, while stairs from the sitting room/dining room lead to the master bedroom suite with dressing room (currently used as a child’s bedroom) and shower room.Integral to the house but accessed externally, is a games room with a mezzanine TV area. This room has the potential for conversion or incorporation into the main house, subject to the necessary consents. GARDEN GROUNDSThe property is approached from the public road, a driveway over which the owners have a right of access leading to a gateway opening to a driveway which leads to a parking area at the side of the house.The grounds extend to approximately 0.43 acres and are laid mainly to grass, fringed and interspersed with mature trees and shrubs that blend with the woodland outwith the boundary.Adjacent to the house is a sheltered flagstone patio with hot tub.The Old Boathouse is currently a successful holiday let, managed through www.cottages.com. Occupancy levels are high throughout the year with many repeat bookings and the house is a popular rental for fishing parties.
