A villa once owned by Stuck In the Middle With You singer Gerry Rafferty is on the market.

The Scots singer songwriter died in 2011 but was immortalised by Tarantino flick Reservoir Dogs when his one of his biggest hits was used in a torture scene.

The five-bed home, Eagleston, is on the market for offers over £475,000 and has three sitting rooms and two bathrooms.

It is in Strathpeffer, Ross-shire, near Inverness.

The B-listed building dates from around 1860 and is surrounded by a veranda with more than an acre of land, and is surrounded by woodland.

It has a coach house currently used as a garage and workshops, which Rafferty had planned to convert into a two-bedroom cottage with a conservatory and recording studio.

Consent had been gained for the plans.

Phiddy Robertson, of Galbraith, said: “Eaglestone offers great versatility for the purchaser.

“There is the opportunity to develop the coach house as additional accommodation or potentially as a holiday let, positioned on the popular NC500 route.

“The house is a particularly attractive family home with superb entertaining space and the established grounds with mature trees offer great privacy, within the conservation area of this lovely village.”

 Eagleston has three sitting rooms and two bathrooms.
