Blairvadach, Shandon, Argyll & Bute, G84 8NN

APARTMENT FOUR. DUE FOR COMPLETION IN SUMMER 2023.

Recently sold by the local authority, Blairvadach was purchased by a well respected local developer and now enters an exciting new chapter in its history. Planning permission has been granted for the conversion of the building into eight completely individual and most impressive luxury apartments. There will be a real diverse choice of apartments available, ranging from a spacious one bedroomed property of around 730 square feet, right up to arguably the centrepiece of the development, a simply stunning two storey duplex apartment with its four bedrooms and around 2370 square feet of accommodation, complete with a jaw dropping private roof terrace with 360 degree views of the surrounding countryside and the waters of the Gare Loch. All of the apartments will have their own private garden or terrace, there will be plenty of private parking provided and it goes without saying, the standard of finish will be exemplary, combining many of the original features of the building with high end, modern and stylish finishes.

Blairvadach House is a beautiful and historic Victorian mansion house that stands proud, overlooking the Gare Loch, in the quiet and ever popular village of Shandon. The house was designed by leading Victorian architect J.T Rochead around 1850 and was built for politician and manufacturer Sir James Anderson, Lord Provost of Glasgow from 1848-51 and later MP for Stirling Burghs.

Built in the fashionable Scots baronial style, complete with massive keep, turrets and battlements, Blairvadach House has been recognised as a building of architectural and historical interest and has B listed status. Over the years, various owners have come and gone, but from 1998, and up until recently, the building was used by the Argyll and Bute Council’s planning department.

Shandon is a delightfully quiet village that is immensely popular due to its picturesque setting on the shore of the Gare Loch and being only a short distance by car or bus from the larger seaside town of Helensburgh. Helensburgh offers a wide selection of amenities that include shops, supermarkets, bars, restaurants, schools (both state and independent) and numerous leisure facilities. There are several train stations in Helensburgh serving Glasgow, Edinburgh, the West Highlands and even a sleeper to London. The area is synonymous with those who enjoy the outdoors, with good sailing on the Gare Loch and the River Clyde (nearby is the Royal Northern and Clyde Yacht Club and Rhu Marina). There are lovely country walks nearby and with the iconic shores of Loch Lomond just a short distance away. Loch Lomond is home to the renowned Lomond Golf Club, Cameron House Hotel and the Cameron Club Golf Club and Spa, along with world class accommodation and watersport facilities. Glasgow is within forty five minutes’ commute by car and the international airport is easily accessible via the A82 and Erskine Bridge.
