Number 2 Old Ground Invergarry
Number 2 Old Ground Invergarry is a former Aberchalder Estate workers cottage constructed with thick stone walls. According to the date stone in the front wall it was built in 1874 when it is believed to have been occupied by the estate gardener.
The estate was acquired in 1860 by the Ellice family, who carried out much development in the village of Invergarry which contains several properties that date from this period including the school, church and hotel.
This Grade B listed mid terrace cottage is one of a row of four and has been completely renovated and furnished to a high standard in 2003 for use as a self catering holiday home with fully equipped kitchen and modern shower room but retaining many period features that add to the charm and character.
The cottage has a sitting room, hall, and kitchen on the ground floor and a double bedroom with adjacent shower room upstairs.
