Description
This is a mid-18th century, two-storey and attic, five-bay house, with a later 19th-century single-storey and attic wing extending to the south, and a two-storey wing to the rear (west). The house is harled with painted ashlar margins. The symmetrical front facade has a five-bay arrangement featuring narrow windows and a central doorway, which is now masked by a later gabled porch. Two small, piended dormers, dating from around 1800, are present. The windows are fitted with two-pane glazing, and there are end chimneys with slate roofs. A coped drystone garden wall is also present. The statutory address is Inverlael Farm, formerly Lochbroom Post Office, Inverlael.
