Ochre is unique, bespoke and entirely personal. We exist to capture the emotive and imaginative narrative of extraordinary Scottish homes, many of which are listed and historic. We support buyers and future custodians with specialist ongoing support through Historic Scotland.
From croft to castle, the Scottish landscape is one of the most emotive and evocative in the world. An inspiration to both poet and painter, it has proved a catalyst for much of the finest architectural heritage to be found anywhere in the British Isles.
“The walls of the house are charcoal grey and white, the elegant pillars of guillemots. The windows and the doors are the cries of kittiwakes and the cackling of fulmars blown on the wind.”
Working with Scotland’s most important built heritage is much like custodianship itself, both a privilege and a responsibility. As such, we are the first agency to align with Historic Scotland to provide inspiring case studies, support, regulatory advice and referral services, ensuring potential buyers have all the expertise and support at hand to proceed with a purchase in confidence and become the next custodian of an inspiring Scottish home.
William and Robert Adam, Sir William Bruce, William Burn, David Bryce, Alexander Thomson, MackIntosh. The wealth of Scotland’s architectural built heritage is unmatched. From pre 18th century fortified castles and tower houses, classical masterpieces, Scots Baronial to our revered Arts and Crafts movement, these homes are amongst the most culturally significant in the world.
Ochre is the antithesis of the standardised, corporate model. Just as these much-loved homes have shaped our families, often over generations, it matters profoundly who these homes pass to and who handles every element of that process. You may appoint an agency, but you are also appointing your agent. That agent will be your sole point of contact, will handle every potential buyer, every viewing and all feedback until your sale is complete. This ensures that all the detail of narrative with a home is not lost in the passing to branch staff, viewing agents or Saturday staff.
We believe homes of this stature deserve a level of attention and care above and beyond the norm in our industry. As such, we take great care to limit how many homes we present at any given time and ensure that we have only one Ochre home in any given area. This ensures that your home will have our undivided commitment until the next custodian is secured.
