The property underwent a full renovation in 2020/21 and a garden room extension was also added at this time with a glazed gable end, flooding the room with coastal light and allowing framed views of the Cromarty Firth beyond the beautiful garden. The renovation has resulted in a comfortable and energy efficient property, retaining the original character but with the benefits of modern building materials and technologies including an air source heat pump, double glazing, and high levels of insulation. 60 Church Street has an Ofgem Renewable Heat Incentive contract, expiring February 2028 which entitles the owner to claim approximately £1000 per annum (paid quarterly) which is transferable to the new owner.
