Read the full agent description
Located within the prestigious Highland Club development in Fort Augustus, Moat House 1 is a distinctive two-bedroom residence offering character-filled accommodation in a historic setting. Nestled within the grounds of a former Benedictine Abbey at the southern tip of Loch Ness, the property blends striking architectural features with practical, contemporary living.
The home benefits from two private entrances—one at ground level, offering easy access, and a second through a stone arch and modern staircase leading to the upper floor. Inside, the interiors are thoughtfully arranged and enhanced by quality finishes throughout.
On the lower level, a generously sized bedroom features three single beds, ideal for flexible living arrangements. Adjacent is a beautifully appointed bathroom complete with a classic roll-top bath and overhead shower. The second bedroom, formerly the Abbey’s armoury, showcases a vaulted ceiling, king-size bed, built-in storage, and integrated media. While it does not have windows, it receives ample light from surrounding areas, creating a warm and restful atmosphere.
The upper floor hosts a bright and spacious living room with views across the main lawn of the Abbey grounds. Two comfortable sofas—one of which converts to a bed—provide a relaxing setting, while the open-plan dining area offers space for up to six. The adjoining kitchen, though compact, is well-equipped with a hob, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and washer/dryer.
1 Moat House offers an exceptional opportunity to live in one of the Highlands’ most iconic locations, combining heritage architecture with modern comforts and an outstanding natural setting. With its prime setting and flexible layout, the property also holds excellent potential as a holiday let, making it a superb lifestyle or investment opportunity in a consistently popular tourist destination.
