5 bed detached house for sale

Culloden Moor, Inverness IV2

Set in a commanding position on the edge of historic Culloden Moor, Rowanvale is a distinguished detached residence enjoying magnificent panoramic views across unspoilt Highland countryside towards the River Nairn and the Culloden Viaduct. Built in the early 2000s, the house was carefully designed to make the most of its exceptional south-facing setting, combining a remarkable sense of privacy and tranquillity with easy access to Inverness, the A9, Inverness Airport and the increasingly desirable village of Tornagrain.

The accommodation is both beautifully proportioned and exceptionally versatile, extending to a superb family home equally well suited to entertaining or boutique guest house, with four of the five bedrooms benefitting from en suite facilities. A welcoming reception hall introduces interiors of considerable quality and refinement, while the principal living areas are enhanced by extensive quadruple-aspect glazing, framing the surrounding landscape, drawing in an abundance of natural light and taking full advantage of solar gain.

At the heart of the house lies a superbly appointed kitchen, fitted with an extensive range of solid wood cabinetry, generous work surfaces and integrated appliances, creating a space that is as elegant as it is practical. To the rear, the dining room is a particularly striking reception space, enclosed by picture windows on three sides and perfectly positioned to capture the glorious outlook across the surrounding woodland and countryside. French doors open directly onto the terrace and gardens, creating a seamless connection between the house and its idyllic setting, while the adjoining family room provides a comfortable yet sophisticated retreat for everyday living and informal entertaining.

The ground floor is notably adaptable in its arrangement, with a substantial en-suite bedroom ideally suited to guests, multi-generational living or principal accommodation on one level. A further reception room, currently arranged as an additional sitting room, could equally serve as a fifth bedroom if required, while a separate study offers an ideal environment for home working. A utility room and cloakroom complete the accommodation at this level.

On the upper floor are three further beautifully presented en suite bedrooms, each enjoying a delightful outlook across the surrounding landscape. Two of the bedrooms feature balconies, all providing peaceful vantage points from which to enjoy the beauty and tranquillity of the setting.

Rowanvale is approached by way of a privately owned access track, over which a neighbouring property has a right of access, leading to a gravelled parking area to the front of the house. The grounds extend to approximately 1.3 acres and are a particular feature of the property, comprising sweeping lawns, mature trees, established shrubs, stocked flowerbeds and a timber decked seating area. To the rear, the gardens slope gently and are laid mainly to grass, interspersed with mature trees and gorse bushes. To the east lies a former vegetable garden with raised beds, a polytunnel and chicken run, while on the opposite side of the access track there is a further grassed area fringed with mature trees, underplanted with spring flowering bulbs and incorporating the remains of a pond. A substantial detached double garage, with power, lighting, up-and-over door and useful storage, completes the property.

Rowanvale represents a rare opportunity to acquire a country house of genuine distinction in one of the Highlands’ most scenic and historic settings. Combining elegance, seclusion and exceptional convenience, it is ideally suited to refined family living, entertaining and the enjoyment of a truly special rural lifestyle, all within easy reach of Inverness and the wider Highlands. Viewing is essential to appreciate fully the quality of the accommodation, the beauty of the setting and the calibre of life on offer.
