USP Park life

Tigh na H’ath is a handsome Edwardian house in the Cairngorm National Park with an interesting garden feature.

On the southern boundary the property are the outer walls of beautifully crafted limekilns.

Built in the 1920s, the house retains original features with decorative ceiling beams, brick fireplaces and a beautifully crafted staircase.

It is in need of modernisation, but offers potential and something of a blank canvas for a project.

The name Tigh na H’ath refers to the limekilns, used in the

19th century to make mortar.

Phiddy Robertson, of Galbraith, says: “Demand for property within the national park has grown from those looking for a holiday base to those looking for a change of lifestyle in a protected environment.

“Tigh na H’ath offers an opportunity to acquire a quality property in an area of strong demand.”

The national park was established in 2003 to protect the landscape of the Cairngorms and property within its boundaries is coveted.

The two-acre grounds at Tigh na H’ath include formal gardens incorporating the limekilns and mature woodland with specimen trees, paths and woodland flowers.

Rothiemurchus and the Cairngorms Ski Centre are nearby, and Grantown-on-spey is less than four miles away.
