Charming detached Victorian villa on the shores of Holy Loch in the much sough-after coastal village of Kilmun. Set over three levels and brimming with original features, the versatile property comprises, on the ground floor, an entrance porch which doubles as a sun room, a formal sitting room with open fire and wonderful sea views over the immaculate garden, a lounge / study with log burning stove and equally impressive vista, dining room which could be used as a fourth bedroom if required, well-appointed breakfasting kitchen and large utility room which provides access to the back garden. An elegant staircase with original spindles and handrail winds from the lower floor to the upper hallway with the four-piece family bathroom, which includes a freestanding roll-top bath and walk-in shower cubicle, on the half-landing. The bedrooms are situated on the upper floor and all three of them command truly outstanding views of Holy Loch and the surrounding countryside. Two of the rooms are very generous doubles with one of them benefitting by an en-suite cloakroom with sensor lighting; the third room is slightly smaller but still a good size. Externally, the property boasts beautifully landscaped and maintained front and back gardens with numerous seating areas, several outhouses and a garage at the top of the gated driveway, all of which have power and lighting. Shoreside villas such as Invereoch always generate a high level of interest so early viewings is most definitely advisable.
The picturesque village of Kilmun is surrounded by natural beauty, sits on the banks of Holy Loch and has outstanding views, not only of the loch and the Firth of Clyde, but also the surrounding hills and countryside. The area, which is approximately six miles from Dunoon and on the edge of Scotland’s First National Park, is well served with a very well stocked petrol station / shop, village inn, cafe, golf and bowling clubs, medical centre, churches and a fantastic primary school which has been awarded the Green Flag. Other places of interest and / or leisure include the arboretum with its many species of trees and wildlife and several recognised walks of varying degree of ease and the Argyll Mausoleum set in the grounds of Kilmun Church. The popular, and ever expanding, Holy Loch Marina is just a few minutes’ drive away at the other side of the loch although many boat-owners also have a mooring in the loch for using during the summer months. A regular bus service to Dunoon makes the supermarkets, shops, hairdressers, eateries, pubs, sports and sailing clubs and cinema etc easily accessible. In addition, there are two ferry links to Gourock with rail and coach links meaning that Glasgow city centre is little more than an hour away, with Glasgow Airport, Braehead Shopping Centre and Greenock even closer.
