"What's for you won't go by you" my gran would say!

Non standard construction so may not be mortgageable though.  Lovely for a  cash buyer - a bargain I'd say!

Funny but there is a similar house in Oban, Steve works there but mortgage free would  be great........thinking about the little place kept me awake.......then I come back to how handy here is.......living in the Cairngorms is VERY Appealing.......

Non standard construction that's dead on they said if i had the work done it would be worth 15000 did the work and no sales so the house has been there for 100 ya res no problem in fantastic location costing me naw .Haw are things with you donago reedy for the big day ,Its advent sunday a week sunday and that's the run in till Christmas 3 weeks this time would be lovaley  to go to  end off January cut all this Christmas  out .IV been told a green Christmas all the best.

A sweet little house in an ideal spot but I think we need to stay fairly central, it would be a good house to let out for holidays, why not give that a try if its sticking, there is a bungalow near here thats been on the market for ages and ages due to not being morgageable, we looked at it but it cannot be guarenteed to last etc so we left it, shame as its in a lovely spot, I can picture myself living there as well!!
I do love the highland idea but need to be more central, I like the area around Dundee and Perth, we will see what comes up, I wish the money fairy would pay for my husband to learn to drive, he was just about to take a test before we migrated up here, now hes chickend out but it so limits where we can go!!!

Thanks Gary, great here. Dogs been doing really well in show ring. 
I watch Homes under the Hammer when I'm having breakfast, which is the only reason I knew about that.  There was one on not long ago that they had had on teh programme before, the owners had to rent out even after doing the work, but they went back to it a couple of years later and it had sold after modernising.  Your Mum's house looks lovely, and I would say it really is a bargain.  How much did the work cost you to change it from non standard and what did you have to do?  Did it have to get an outside jacket of stone?

i took the money from the croft fund which i have for rainy days .had new heating kitchin bathroom open fire infestation and cavity ,problem the community charge and insurance and loan on double glazing has to be paid monthly so its costing me heavy rent on the croft and house my house mums house ,The good news i still have 300 ewes to sell and 100 geese and 40 turkeys i cut the poultry dawn from 300 to 120 I'm glad you re OK and the dogs all the best.

See if you can let it, would bring in a great income, especially near a golf course, I adore the look of the place, BUT, I keep thinking of myself snowed in in the highlands and my 3 daughters not being able to visit!!!!
If your house was here, I would prob take a very serious look at it, I saw a house I adored near here and it was next to the Forth and flooded all the time, I so wanted that house as it was very very cheap, but now its sold so, some one has the same idea as i had, I could have easily gotton return on my money through renting it short term sort of holiday let......Also, post some adds on free sights, I wish I was in a position to come and look but I am sure I would fall in love with the place,
 
Thanks!!

VERY VERY cheap houses near us (downside is the locals are German)
We have two friends both Brits and they speak hardly any German (hello, goodbye, thankyou etc!) but get by. I had no German when I came and OH only school German.
We live off a small teachers pension and I have a tiny job teaching English (that almost pays for the animal food)
Try Googling 'houses in Saxony' they start at a couple of thousand euros.
'Horning' or 'Harald Kissliss' (I think Ive sprlt them correctly) are two local estate agents with good web sites.
