Cosy One-Bedroom Home In Historic Converted B-Listed Building With Bright Interiors, Sunroom, Multi-Fuel Stove And Unique Period Charm

Set within the grounds of a former B-listed hospital, 1 Migdale House is a one-bedroom home with a unique story to tell. This handsome white-painted terrace sits quietly within a private landscaped setting, with stone paths, mature trees and communal gardens weaving between the character-rich buildings that make up this distinctive development. Just a short walk from Bonar Bridge, it offers the peace and charm of a Highland village with a strong architectural backdrop.

A wooden archway frames the paved path to the front door, giving the approach a charming presence. The front garden is low maintenance, laid with stone chippings and neatly finished with a green front door and matching coloured sunroom frame.

Inside, the living space is simple and full of potential. The living room is bright and versatile, with white walls, wood laminate flooring and a compact multi-fuel stove. It’s a welcoming focal point and a fitting nod to the building’s age. A glazed door opens into the sunroom – a lovely, fully glazed retreat ideal for relaxing, reading or catching the sun. This room connects directly to the garden, extending your living space in warmer months.

The kitchen is finished in a calm, contemporary palette. Light grey base and wall units are paired with dark grey worktops and a light grey sink all against the backdrop of clean white-painted walls. An integrated oven and electric hob add practicality, with a layout that keeps everything within easy reach.

Also on the ground floor you’ll find a neat shower room. This is a compact space with a white colour scheme that keeps the room feeling clean and bright. A corner cubicle is lined with grey marble-effect wetwall panels, adding a sleek contrast to the white basin and toilet. The basin is mounted on a small storage unit, helping to keep essentials neatly tucked away. It’s a smart and efficient space that’s easy to maintain.

In the corner of the living room, a wooden staircase leads up to the attic-level bedroom. With sloped ceilings and twin rooflight windows, this is a space that feels open and bright. The white-painted walls help maximise the natural light and you’ll find generous space for a full double bed and additional furniture. While the flooring is yet to be added, it’s a true blank canvas ready for personalisation.

This is a distinctive property, part of a landmark local building dating back to 1872 and offers both architectural interest and a strong sense of community, with shared outdoor spaces and on-site residents’ parking. With bright interiors, manageable gardens and a layout that will suit a wide range of buyers, it’s the perfect first home, Highland retreat or a low-maintenance investment opportunity. Arrange your private viewing with Hamish Homes and explore the character and quiet appeal of this one-of-a-kind home.
