Headgoe is a characterful former farmhouse set in a striking coastal position on the island of Shapinsay, offering expansive views across open fields and shoreline. Approached through a traditional farmyard setting with stone outbuildings, the property combines rustic charm with spacious interiors and a peaceful sense of seclusion.

The ground floor centres around a bright and welcoming kitchen and dining room, where modern cabinetry, wooden flooring and generous natural light create a warm atmosphere. There is a cosy living room featuring a traditional fireplace with a solid fuel stove and windows overlooking the surrounding landscape. Two comfortable ground floor bedrooms sit off the main hall, while a further studio or hobby room provides valuable flexible space ideal for creative work, crafts or home working. A family bathroom serves the level, and a utility room with original stone flooring offers practical storage and a useful area for laundry and outdoor clothing.

The first floor opens into a large, light-filled studio or hobby room with Velux windows that draw in natural daylight throughout the day, making it an inspiring and adaptable upper-level workspace. A peaceful double bedroom lies beyond, set beneath gentle ceiling slopes and offering a quiet retreat from the main living areas.

Outside, Headgoe is accompanied by a traditional stone outbuilding that stand around the central farmyard. These provide excellent storage, workshop potential and future scope for adaptation, subject to the necessary consents.
