Taigh Glas: A Unique Home in the Heart of Lochbay The current owners fell in love with the charming hamlet of Lochbay, Skye, and it was over lunch at the historic Stein Inn�the oldest inn on Skye�that the vision for Taigh Glas first took shape, sketched on a napkin. Just five minutes downhill from the plot they had discovered, it felt like fate. They knew instantly they had found a hidden gem of a location. By 2017, Taigh Glas was complete�a striking modern home with an inverted design. Taigh Glas is a thoughtfully designed three-bedroom property offering flexibility to suit any lifestyle. Two bedrooms, a bathroom, and a utility room occupy the ground floor. Upstairs, the open-plan sitting, dining, and kitchen area features soaring vaulted ceilings and floor-to-ceiling triple-glazed windows that frame breathtaking sunsets over Stein, Lochbay, and the Western Isles. The third bedroom�known as The Studio�has its own lobby, bathroom, and kitchenette, making it a highly sought-after holiday rental, particularly popular with couples celebrating special occasions. Designed for comfort and sustainability, the house features a Genevex air system that regulates temperature and ensures a warm, dry environment year-round. Solar tubes on the roof and electric heat pumps efficiently heat the water. The main living space includes a Rais wood-burning stove for cosy nights in, a kitchen island with a Calor gas hob, an electric oven, and a built-in American-style fridge/freezer and dishwasher. The top floor opens onto a balcony with sweeping sea views. Separate from the main house, The Bothy offers a private space for work or relaxation with its own stunning sea views. This home can function as a spacious single-family residence, two independent units, or a live-work-income combination where you reside in the main house, rent out The Studio, and use The Bothy as a workspace. Outdoor living is a delight at Taigh Glas, with multiple spaces to enjoy the natural beauty surrounding the home. A stone-paved patio offers a sunny retreat reminiscent of the Mediterranean, while a secret arbour overlooks the sea. The hillside garden features a hidden rose garden with decking and panoramic views, as well as a large lawn and a fruit garden with blackcurrants and apples. The home�s five exterior doors make it easily accessible and ideal for those with mobility considerations. Beyond the property itself, Taigh Glas offers the added charm of a warm, welcoming community. The friendly and knowledgeable neighbours in Lochbay enrich the experience of living here, making this not just a home but a truly special place. Whether you�re looking for a peaceful retreat, an income-generating opportunity, or a combination of both, Taigh Glas is a rare find. How will you make it yours? (The property is currently being advertised as a holiday rental, and the sellers are offering a unique �try before you buy� opportunity. Anyone who books a stay here and later decides to purchase Taigh Glas will receive a discount equal to the cost of their holiday stay, deducted from the purchase price. Limited to a maximum of one week�s stay). Electricity Supply: Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks Water Supply: Scottish Water Sewerage: Scottish Water Mobile Coverage: limited 4G
