Strathan doesn't really give you a high street to read — this is the kind of hamlet where the character is in the single-track road, the scatter of houses, and the hills or coastline doing most of the talking. There's no town centre scene to describe because there isn't one; what you're buying into here is remoteness itself, and whether that appeals to you is really the whole decision.
I have to be straight with you: beyond confirming it's a hamlet in Scotland, there's no usable data behind this one — no house prices, no school or transport detail, no crime figures, nothing broken out at area level. For a place this small, that's not unusual; a lot of official statistics simply aren't collected or published below a certain population threshold, and Strathan likely sits under it. So rather than dress this up with national averages that tell you nothing about the actual street, I'll leave it here. If you're seriously weighing this one up, your best move is a visit and a conversation with a local solicitor or estate agent who knows the ground — they'll know the well, the septic tank, the mobile signal, and the neighbours in a way no dataset will.
