Description
Flat 9 is a spacious mid-floor apartment within The Highland Club, occupying part of the former Benedictine monastery at Fort Augustus. Set within approximately 20 acres of private grounds, the property combines the character and scale of a historic building with the comfort expected from a modern self-catering apartment.
Reaching the apartment involves walking through the original cloisters of the former monastery, creating a memorable approach and a real sense of the buildings history before entering the apartment itself.
The apartment has a generous open plan living, dining and kitchen area, with a large stone fireplace providing a strong focal point and a reminder of the buildings history. A large bay window creates a particularly appealing place to sit and enjoy the changing views across Loch Ness, with the lounge also benefiting from double aspect outlooks towards the surrounding Highland countryside. There is ample space for comfortable seating and a dining table for six, making this a practical and inviting space for both relaxing and entertaining.
The kitchen has granite worktops and is fitted with a gas hob, electric oven, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washer dryer, with a microwave, kettle and toaster also provided. Wood panelling in the hall adds further character as you move through the apartment.
There are two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom has a super king-size bed which can also be arranged as twin beds, together with a private en suite bathroom featuring a bath and separate shower, WC, full tiling and underfloor heating. The second bedroom has a double bed and overlooks the Scriptorium towards the Abbey Church.
The main bathroom is also fully tiled and benefits from underfloor heating.
The Highland Club is set in an exceptional location at the heart of Fort Augustus, surrounded by Loch Ness, the River Oich, River Tarff and the Caledonian Canal.
Ownership of the apartment also gives access to an unusually extensive range of facilities within the grounds. These include a swimming pool, gym, steam room, sauna, tennis court, golf simulator, club lounge with snooker table, giant chess, lawn croquet, beauty spa, kids adventure playground, fishing and a private jetty.
Flat 9 offers considerably more than a conventional two-bedroom apartment, combining generous accommodation, original architectural features, views towards Loch Ness and access to extensive facilities within one of the Highlands most distinctive residential settings.
