Laurel Grove is a once-fine period detached Victorian Villa in need of internal remedial works to bring it back to its former glory. The property, which has retained many original features, is set over two levels and comprises 2 / 3 reception rooms, 4 / 5 bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and cloakroom and, externally, front and back gardens, with the rear being of a particularly generous size; an external staircase to the upper floor further offers the potential to explore transforming the building into two apartments should the new owner wish. This is a substantial project for a buyer with vision to restore this to a stunning family home and will definitely appeal to those with the necessary skills and funds to take on the project to either live in or make a significant profit. Early viewing recommended as this is not expected to be on the market long. Please note that in its current condition the property is highly unlikely to be suitable for lending purposes.
Close to Dunoon’s bustling town centre in the heart of the Cowal Peninsula, you’ll enjoy easy access to shops, pubs, restaurants, schools, theatres, cinemas, and leisure facilities. The area is perfect for scenic drives and outdoor pursuits, with Bishop’s Glen and the stunning landscapes around Loch Lomond nearby. Glasgow is easily reachable by car or via public transport from the Western Ferry terminal. Renowned for its spectacular scenery, the area offers endless walking, cycling, and hill climbs, including the picturesque Bishop’s Glen Walk around the reservoir. For families, West Bay play park is just a few hundred yards along the coastal promenade, while Cowal Golf Course, only 2 miles away, continues Dunoon’s proud golfing tradition. Holy Loch Marina is also close, providing an ideal base to explore the Clyde, Kyles of Bute, and surrounding sea lochs.
