And here's what we are hoping will soon be ours...

| 7 Roag |

| The house from the road |
We are only able to make a conditional offer at this stage because we will need the cash from the sale of Aird View to pay for 7 Roag, and we understand our purchaser is currently arranging their finance. So we now face the anxious nail-biting wait of a month or two while the wheels of house-purchase grind slowly on. In the meantime, if someone else comes along with a bucket of cash and wants to buy 7 Roag, we lose out. How come in this super-fast digital age you can do almost anything with a click of a mouse, but to buy a house takes a couple of months...? Hmmm...
7 Roag is a traditional Skye croft house, and stands at the upper end of the Roag township with a great view over Pool Roag and surrounding hills. It is only one and a half miles from the Barn - we can see it from our front windows! It is immaculate inside and out, with some lovely 'old' features, including a beautiful range cooker and some v-groove wood paneling to some of the walls, but it also comes with all the modern conveniences which will make it comfy and cosy for our holiday visitors.
More news soon, and hopefully all good news!

It looks strangely familiar like one I've stayed at or been in before. Hope things work for the best. :)
Thanks Jill. The house is in the traditional Skye croft house style. There are many similar-looking houses on the island. This one is slightly taller than many others - it is more common for first floor windows to be dormers, let into the roof.
