An exciting opportunity to acquire a traditional two-bedroom coastal property, set in a prominent position within the picturesque village of Fionnphort on the Isle of Mull.

Situated in a prominent, coastal location and offering open views across the Sound of Iona, Shore House offers buyers an opportunity to acquire a charming two-bedroom detached cottage, a wonderful family home equally well suited to the holiday let market.

The property is entered from the front elevation, with the main doorway leading into a central hallway. To the right, a family lounge enjoys a welcoming feel, a comfortable place to sit and relax. The room extends round to the rear, under the staircase, creating a small study area, large enough to accommodate a computer desk.

Positioned to the left of the hallway, a combined kitchen and dining room enjoys views out to the front gardens. The kitchen features a range of white floor and wall cabinets, complimented by a selection of grey and wooden worktops. A six-ring gas stove sits within the chimney breast, a clever use of space. A picture window offers views out to the side garden.

A doorway to the rear of the kitchen gives access to the utility room, a practical space offering additional storage and housing the domestic appliances, with space for a washing machine, dryer and undercounter fridge. A glazed door floods the room with natural daylight, also giving access to the side garden.

The family bathroom is accessed through the utility room, featuring a full-sized bath with shower over, and white, two-piece bathroom suite.

The staircase ascends from the hall, giving access to the upper floor, where two bedrooms are linked by a central landing. Both bedrooms span the full width of the property, offering far-reaching views out to the front. The larger of the bedrooms is configured as a triple room, large enough to accommodate three single beds. Both rooms benefit from the inclusion of a pedestal basin. A shower room is also accessed from the upper floor landing, completing the property layout.

Shore House enjoys an enviable location within the village, a location admired by tourists boarding the ferry to Iona.
