The picturesque, rural village of Kilmelford is scattered around the shores of Loch Na Cille, situated on the A816 between the towns of Oban (about 15 miles) and Lochgilphead (about 21 miles) and enjoys a thriving community life with local services including a village hall, a general store/post office, licensed hotel with pub and restaurant, parish church and boatyard/yachting marina. Primary schooling is provided in the nearby village of Kilninver and secondary education in Oban, with a bus service providing transport to both. The surrounding area is steeped in history with an abundance of flora and fauna and abounds with outdoor sporting and leisure opportunities including shooting, fishing and hill walking and is particularly renowned for its excellent sailing waters, with the yachting marinas of Ardfern and Craobh Haven close by.

Coille Dharaich is a most desirable detached property situated in an enviable lochside position commanding magnificent views over Loch Na Cille to the seascape and the islands beyond, in a small ribbon of individual homes, about half a mile from the heart of the village and a short distance along the single track road to Degnish. Of a rather interesting and unique design, characteristic of the 1970s, the property has been extremely well maintained by the current owners with the roof being replaced in recent years, and the garage being added. The spacious accommodation offers superb versatility, with two of the four bedrooms, together with the shower room and study being on the ground floor. The sitting and dining rooms both enjoy the excellent views from the patio doors which fill the room with light and which lead out to the front terrace. In addition the sitting room features a wood lined cathedral style ceiling and a bespoke wood burning stove set in a stone surround. The established garden, which includes an area of shore frontage, all adds to the appeal of this highly sought-after property.
