The wider area boasts a golf course, tennis court, children’s play area, sailing clubs and the ever expanding, and growing in stature, Portavadie Marina.

    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.

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain).

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
