Property description

Mossgiel, on the banks of Loch Long, is a beautiful family home which has undergone internal and external improvements recently whilst maintaining many period features thus ensuring the best of both worlds. The main section of the property consists of 4 bedrooms, sitting room, dining room, fabulous dining kitchen, huge bathroom, cloakroom, study and large walk-in cupboard. Further, an annexe on ground level consists of sitting room, bedroom, shower room and utility room making an ideal ‘granny flat’, teenager’s ‘chill out’ area or guest accommodation. The extensive gardens stretch from the shore road to the high road and have several outhouses including a new summerhouse. The lawned area and the large sweeping driveway have been separated with a gated fence ensuring that the gardens are a child and pet safe zone. This truly is a magnificent property in a fantastic location only a few miles from Dunoon, Cowal’s capital, and all the amenities associated with a large seaside town. So, if you are looking for a large house, with additional space for ‘granny’ or guests, in a lovely part of Argyll then this could be the property for you.

Entrance
The property can be found a couple of hundred yards after Blairmore Pier and is entered via a long driveway which sweeps to the front of the house or alternatively to a further parking area at the rear. The driveway has been fenced off ensuring that children and pets can play in complete safety.

LOWER FLOOR

Hallway
Storm doors lead to a spacious and welcoming hallway. The hall is carpeted and, in keeping with the rest of the house, has many period features such as high ceilings and cornicing. The sitting room, dining room, downstairs bedroom, kitchen, cloakroom and large walk-in cupboard are all accessed from the hallway.

Sitting Room
5.6m x 4.8m
The magnificent sitting room has stunning views of Loch Long and the Firth of Clyde through the bay windows in original sash style. Wooden flooring and the imposing timber fireplace with large gas stove, high ceilings and cornice ensure that this impressive room is comfortable, warm and homely.

Dining / Family Room
5.1m x 4.2m
Also front facing this room would make an ideal dining or family room. With stunning views similar to that of the sitting room through the large windows this room also has a feature fireplace, original coving and a beautifully carved wooden cabinet which houses the fireplace and space for trinkets, photos and souvenirs.

Dining Kitchen
4.8m x 4.5m
The large kitchen is the hub of the house with its tiled floor, antique pine wall and base units, oil fired range cooker set in a decorative fire place, French doors opening to a courtyard and window seat under the good sized side window. There is ample room for a large table and chairs in the centre of the room ensuring that the kitchen is a lovely place to cook, eat, relax with a coffee or spend time with friends.

Bedroom
3.8m x 3.7m
Situated at the rear of the property with a window overlooking the back garden. The deep red walls and wooden flooring creates a warm feeling. Handy recessed shelved area. The room would also make an ideal study or music room.

Cloakroom
2.6m x 1.2m
Handy cloakroom just next to the bedroom and consisting of original WC and wash hand basin, giving it a rustic feel to it. Wood panelled walls and opaque window.

Walk-in Cupboard
4.5m x 1.3m
More like a room than a cupboard! Long and narrow with a sink under the window...perfect for shoes, jackets, umbrellas etc.

ANNEXE
The annexe is off the kitchen at the rear of the house and also has private access through a door at the side of the house. Could be used as a ‘granny flat’, teenager’s ‘chill out’ area or guest accommodation. Once through the kitchen doors you are met with a small hallway which leads to the utility room, bedroom and shower room. A sitting room is off the bedroom - although both the rooms could be either bedrooms or sitting rooms...the choice is yours!

Bedroom

Off the hallway is the first of the two main rooms which could be used as a bedroom or small sitting room. Wooden floor, partially wood panelled walls, window to the back garden, ceiling light and radiator.

Sitting Room
4.2m x 3.2m
As mentioned previously, the sitting room could be utilised as a bedroom. This, larger, room also has wooden flooring, window overlooking the back garden, partially wood panelled walls, ceiling light and radiator but it also has a stove effect fire set in a timber fireplace.

Utility Room
3.3m x 2.5m
Off the hall and plumbed for washing machine and dryer and is also equipped to house a cooker.

Shower Room

The master bedroom has outstanding views of the front garden, Loch Long, the Firth of Clyde and the villages on the far side of the loch through the bay windows. Very spacious room decorated in neutral colours. A stylish fire surround and cornice helps make the room aesthetically pleasing whilst the sink adds to the practicality.

Magnificent spacious family bathroom consisting of large stand-alone roll-top bath, raised shower cubicle with dual shower heads, Victorian basin and WC.

The floorboards have been lovingly sanded and stained and enhance the class of the room. 

Study
2.8m x 2.2m
Situated at the front with a lovely oval-topped window offering an interesting view of the water. Would be an ideal study, or similarly, a nursery.

Gardens and Driveway
The extensive gardens stretch from the shore road to the high road and are a mixture of lawn, shrubs, outhouses (including a magnificent new summerhouse) and trees. There really is something for everyone in this garden – chill out areas for the adults, play areas for the kids and contained areas for dogs. Further, architects drawings have been made up for one of the outhouses to be turned into holiday accommodation.
