Located on the outskirts of the popular town of Nairn, this fabulous former historic building was constructed in 1938 and has since been converted into a luxurious home. At 216 m2, the house is spacious, with expansive rooms and spaces for family, guests, entertaining and relaxation and the benefit of a professional level of interior decoration. Arrival is via a sweeping drive leading to a timber-fenced, gravelled area in front of the warm sandstone facia. A large conservatory opens into a comfortable sitting room. Painted in a pale apricot hue and featuring a large wood-burning stove with exposed flue, this room is inviting, with a sense of warmth and comfort.

The kitchen is strikingly contemporary, with grey-painted cabinets and wooden worktops arranged in a u-shape. The kitchen has a high-end feel, enhanced by modern grey tiling and white walls. The look is just the right blend of clean-lines but relaxed, emphasised by high-quality fittings, including a five burner gas hob and glass splash panel behind. A breakfast island in the centre pulls the kitchen together without overpowering it, further enhancing the sense of space and informality.

A large hallway, with polished wood flooring and grey-painted radiator covers, sets the aesthetics for the rest of the property. Painted in a contemporary grey, with matching architraves and skirting, a second living room has a minimalist style but is carefully crafted to be comfortable rather than stark. A similar palette is used in three ground-floor bedrooms. The first is finished on one wall with batten and board panelling in a soft grey, offsetting the white walls and natural light. A painted door leads to a large ensuite shower room with touches of darker grey quality tiling in the shower enclosure and behind the vessel basin.

The next bedroom has a light grey wainscot, with the upper wall finished in a fabulous botanical paper. The third bedroom is painted in a stylish navy blue with a playful but elegant geometric patterned paper. The family bathroom is decorated in white with grey tiles above the bath. This large room also contains a shower enclosure, WC, and wash hand basin. A carpeted dog leg staircase leads to the first-floor bedrooms, which are equally well-finished. The first is currently used as a sumptuous nursery, finished with dark blue and light greys. It has a delightful mural of contemporary mountains on one wall, complementing its architectural character and natural light. Its simply designed en-suite shower room is decorated mainly in white. The final bedroom is elegant and tastefully finished in sage green with similar architectural features, a walk-in wardrobe, and a simply designed en-suite bathroom.

The garden is accessed from the kitchen, and is laid mainly with a lawn and enclosed with timber fencing. The Old Telephone Exchange is a stunning property with an interior meticulously designed to a professional standard. Its generous proportions and a fabulous rural setting within easy reach of major centres make this a wonderful family home.
