Description

Braeside Cottage is a rarely available 3 bedroom stone cottage. The southwest facing property is set close to The Holy Loch and The Clyde Estuary in the picturesque village of Strone in Argyll.

The property is located at the bottom of Strone Brae on the right-hand side of the road and is set in a lovely location with charming well-tended gardens. There is street parking available at the bottom of the road a short walk from the Cottage.

The cottage can be entered from either the roadside via the floral archway, past the Monkey Puzzle tree to the back door or from the front of the property via the driveway belonging to the neighbouring property through the wrought iron gate and up the stairway to the front door. 

On entering the property it opens up to the hallway with stairs leading to the upper floor. The sitting room has a window to the front and one to the side of the cottage and benefits from an open fire place. Bedroom 1 is on the ground floor and has a window looking to the front of the property. Further down the hallway is the galley style kitchen with plenty of wall and floor mounted kitchen units and a stainless steel sink unit. The shower room is a spacious room with an adapted shower cubicle, toilet and wash-hand basin. On the upper floor are 2 double bedrooms and a box room.

Externally, the property has lovely gardens to the side and rear of the property with a drying green and sitting area, a pathway that leads to an arched entrance to the garden from the road. There is an abundance of plants and shrubs in flower beds all surrounded by a stone wall. 

To the rear of the property is the Oil Tank for the central heating, 2 small outhouses one of which contains the central heating boiler.  There is a stand-alone outhouse which would make a good workshop or hobby space.

Strone is a beautiful village which faces southwest overlooking the Holy Loch and the Clyde Estuary taking in the beautiful views that the area offers. There is an excellent pub/restaurant within walking distance and a coffee shop which offers home baking. There is a challenging 9 hole golf course on Strone Hill and a primary school. The name comes from the Scottish Gaelic for nose and applies to the hill above the village as well as to Strone Point. It adjoins the settlement of Kilmun on the loch, and the village of Blairmore on Loch Long. It has a (now disused) pier (built in 1847) and was a regular stop for the Clyde Steamer services.

A mile from Strone is Kilmun which is also on the north shore of the Holy Loch, on the Cowal peninsula in Argyll. It takes its name from the 7th century monastic community founded by an Irish monk, St Munn. The much sought after village of Kilmun, set within the National Park, is situated on the shores of the Holy Loch. The cottage is a short drive to the Cot House Service station with its small, but excellent supermarket and there is a regular bus service to and from Dunoon. Kilmun Church has historic connections and there is a Primary school in the adjoining village of Strone. There is a nine-hole golf course situated on the hill behind the villages of Strone and Blairmore and excellent sailing facilities on the Holy Loch with the Holy Loch Sailing Club and water sports at the Holy Loch Marina located in nearby Sandbank.

Dunoon itself is a small-town set in the beautiful Cowal Peninsular of Argyll and yet within just over an hours commuting distance of Glasgow International Airport. Argyll Ferries run a half-hourly ferry service to Gourock connecting with trains to Glasgow Central. Western Ferries run a more frequent service from nearby Hunters Quay to McInroys Point. Dunoon offers a secondary school, a modern leisure centre, an eighteen-hole golf course, two supermarkets, a variety of individual shops, restaurants and a cinema. Dunoon is the marine gateway to Loch Lomond, the Trossachs and Scotland's first National Park. The famous Benmore Botanic Gardens are situated approximately four miles away from Strone.
