Beautiful detached home with magnificent gardens and the most stunning of loch, hill and country views in the sought-after coastal village of Strachur. ‘Heather Brae’, which has been modernised and upgraded in recent times is presented to the market in absolute walk-in condition and comprises open-plan living with the lounge looking down to the bay and the hills beyond through the ‘picture frame’ windows and boasting a homely multi-fuel stove, the good sized dining area connects the lounge and the contemporary well-appointed kitchen with French Doors to the side garden, three double bedrooms, one of which has a lovely en-suite shower room, and family bathroom. Air source heating, new double glazing and solid wooden flooring are just some of the internal benefits of this beautiful home. Externally, the large gardens have been lovingly and thoughtfully landscaped and maintained and boast a plethora of colourful trees, shrubs, plants and flowers, several outhouses including a ‘Rhino’ greenhouse and workshop, and many different seating areas to enjoy the breathtaking surroundings. A driveway and additional parking area to the front further add to the appeal. Properties such as this rarely appear on the open market and always attract a huge amount of interest so early viewing is highly recommended. 

Surrounded by rolling countryside and hills, on the shores of Loch Fyne, Strachur is situated perfectly for commuting to Dunoon, the Royal Burgh of Inveraray, or Loch Lomond, but is still only little more than an hour's drive away from Glasgow. Strachur boasts a well-known Inn offering accommodation, restaurant and lounge bar, a Medical Centre with in-house pharmacy, Post Office with well stocked shop and tea room, retail service station, a vibrant community hall and a primary school with secondary school in Dunoon. The Loch Lomond & Cowal Way is Scotland's most diverse, long distance footpath, available to cyclists, walkers and horse riders. It passes through Strachur and some of the most dramatic scenery in the West Highlands, eventually linking up with the West Highland Way.

The homely, sociable and comfortable living area has wooden flooring in the lounge and dining section, a multi-fuel stove, French Doors to the side garden and the most gorgeous of views through the front facing windows. The contemporary kitchen is very well appointed with integrated appliances, quality floor tiles and a large window at the rear looking out to the lovely back garden. A double bedroom and modern family bathroom complete the lower floor of the house. A carpeted staircase ascends to the upper floor where the two other double bedrooms can be found, the master of which has an en-suite shower room and overlooks the back garden whilst the front bedroom has the beautiful sea and landscape to waken up to every morning.

Places of interest

    Since its inception, Waterside Property has grown from strength to strength. We have sold more properties than any other Dunoon agency in each of the last 5 years. If you want to get the best price for your property with the best possible service why not speak with us today. Waterside Property was started in 2009 by Gary Campbell, an experienced estate agent and Dunoon’s top selling agent for the previous six years. Gary’s vision was to set up an honest, hard working and highly professional estate agency. Gary wanted Waterside to provide sellers and buyers of property in Argyll an all-round service that was second to none. He managed to achieve this...and some! Sadly, Gary passed away in 2013. However, his hopes and plans of establishing Waterside Property as the Number 1 estate agency in Dunoon and Argyll came into fruition and our team is committed to ensuring his legacy of providing first class service at all times continues.
