The detached five-apartment property in the highland village of Lochailort, Invernesshire, is currently the only stationhouse on the market along the west Coast Highland line where the spectacular scenery is known the world over.
As this white-walled property lies one stop from "Hogwarts Station" the Hogwarts Express passes through the station here during the summer months.
Lochailort, a cluster of villages spread over Glen Shian, is at the centre of an area loved by enthusiasts of outdoor pursuits, from fishing to golf, trekking to eagle spotting.
The property, with an offers over price of £195,000 consists of a lounge, kitchen/laundry, three double bedrooms and one single bedroom, a bathroom with a large traditional bath, toilet, washbasin and shower.

Separately, there is also a modern shower room with power shower, toilet and washbasin and a sauna cabin as an additional feature.
There are high ceilings in the older part of the house, a traditional coal fire in the lounge and gas central heating throughout. The house is partially double-glazed and the loft space is insulated and could be converted for additional living space.
There is a medium sized garden to the front, side and rear of the property with spectacular views of An Stac, part of the Roshven circle while a side garden overlooks a small river where the title deeds of the property prevent any further building. An additional piece of land attached to the house runs towards the station and that is also part of the title.
There are regular rail connections to Fort William and Lochaber, which is regarded by many as the outdoor capital of the UK.
"It’s an excellent spot for a family holiday retreat or home," said the seller, Martin Jones, head teacher at Arisaig Primary, the local school.
"I came here initially when I was thirteen to paint the chapel on Eigg. I always dreamed of being here and now my dream of Highland life has come true."
