Located in the picturesque village of Brodick on the Isle of Arran, this highly desirable terraced cottage offers the perfect blend of comfort and charm. With two well-proportioned bedrooms and a bright, airy open plan living, dining and kitchen area on the ground floor, the property is ideal for those seeking a tranquil retreat or a cosy home.
Douglas Place dates from around 1856 and was originally built for estate workers, the terraced cottages are now ‘B’ listed by Historic Scotland and known locally as ‘Douglas Row’. The row is a much loved local area and properties in this address are rarely available.
Number 8 boasts a lovely enclosed courtyard garden, providing an ideal space for outdoor relaxation and entertaining - it catches the afternoon and evening sun and is a difficult space to beat in the spring and summer months!
This gem of a cottage is conveniently close to local amenities, making it an excellent choice for those who appreciate the convenience of village life. The inviting atmosphere of the cottage, combined with its attractive and original features, makes it a wonderful opportunity for anyone looking to embrace the serene lifestyle that the Isle of Arran has to offer.
Whether you are a first-time buyer, a small family, or seeking a holiday retreat, this cosy cottage is sure to capture your heart. Don't miss the chance to make this charming property your own.
Entrance Hallway - 1.58 x 3.29 overall (5'2" x 10'9" overall ) - The front door opens in to a spacious entrance hallway accessing all the accommodation within.
There is a large under stair cupboard, perfect for hanging cloaks and all sorts of storage, golf clubs et al!
Open Plan Lounge Dining Area - 6.33 x 3.13 overall (20'9" x 10'3" overall ) - A cosy room with the feature of a traditional open fireplace and space for a large dining table. The picture window to the front floods the lounge are with natural light and to the rear of the lounge there are dual aspect windows and a glazed door opening out to the enclosed courtyard.
Kitchen Area - 2.54 x 3.23 (8'3" x 10'7") - Off the lounge to the rear of the cottage the open kitchen area is fitted with wall and base units, with space for a freestanding electric cooker, fridge and washing machine.
The ample work surfaces and lighting add to the connectivity of this open plan space.
Shower Room (The Cludgie) - 1.46 x 3.26 overall (4'9" x 10'8" overall ) - On the groundfloor of the hallway the spacious shower room benefits from high ceilings and is fitted with a white suite with large shower cubicle and storage cupboard.

Garden - To the rear of the property and accessed directly from the rear door is a delightful secluded courtyard which is enclosed by the original high stone garden walls. The three external store rooms have been cleverly turned into two and offer additional dry storage for garden equipment and bicycles.
With the relevant planning, there is huge potential to develop these stores into utility rooms, additional bathrooms or whatever your imagination allows!
All of the cottages in Douglas Place enjoy wonderful long gardens to the front - these are located across the road at the front of the cottage and are a unique addition to each property. This garden is presently leased on an annual basis from Arran Estates and we are advised that the lease will be offered to the new owners.
