"2 Duncraig Square"
By Plockton, Ross-shire

Location

A peaceful, secluded setting next to the grounds of the Duncraig Castle Estate. The surrounding area is one of pleasant, natural countryside with large tracts of native and cultivated woodlands.

Details

Constructed by local craftsmen at the turn of the 20th century using local stone under a heavy slate roof. The five houses forming the square were originally occupied by Duncraig Castle staff. When the Castle was acquired by the Highland Council and became a Domestic Science College for young ladies, the houses were bought by the local District Council and Educational Authority and were largely occupied by teachers and their families working locally. The houses have therefore had the advantage of being well constructed and well maintained throughout the years. These houses are now all privately owned as is Duncraig Castle. No. 2 has been modernised, renovated and well decorated throughout and presents a spacious, warm and comfortable family home.
