• Fully renovated and re- styled • Spectacular interior • Two bedrooms • Excellent tourist location

Roag’s End Cottage, 2 Park, Carloway, HS2 9AH A beautifully restored crofter’s cottage with two bedrooms specifically designed as a holiday home in an excellent setting for attracting tourism. When, in 2011, the present owners passed by and saw the traditional two-up, two-down cottage for sale but in a parlous state, their hearts went out and they knew they had to save it. The house was structurally sound and what they saw made it clear to them that they should restore it to its rightful, attractive and homely origins but in keeping with 21st century energy efficiency. The owners have removed the upper floor and created a gallery bedroom, allowing light to flood into the ground floor. Exposed beams provide character, as does an original, exposed, stone wall. The home has been insulated throughout to modern standards. The results are spectacular. What from the outside looks like your grandmother’s cottage, white washed and with the traditional crofter’s cottage appearance, on the inside is modern, spacious and light filled. The skillful and artistic use of materials such as local stone for the fireplace, elm wood from the local sawmill for shelving, a recycled Belfast sink, door lintels from the timber of a ship found on a beach in Uig and recycled timber for doors throughout are simply a pleasure to behold. Located in Carloway, the cottage is close to many of the island’s tourist attractions such as the internationally renowned Stones, Carloway Broch, Gearrannan Blackhouse Village, Norse Mill and the unsurpassed beaches of Dal Mor and Dal Beag. The area is also abundant in wildlife; golden eagles are seen regularly overhead and the sound of corncrakes can be heard. The River Carloway is close by and fishing permits can be obtained from the local Community Centre. If you wanted to launch your dinghy or boat, Carloway has a harbour and the slipways are less than a mile away. There is much to recommend this area of the island for relocation or vacation. This property, set at a very attractive price, will undoubtedly appeal to a wide market and early viewing is strongly recommended.
