Description

A rare opportunity has arisen to buy Berryburn a handsome 4 bedroom house in an elevated position looking out to the Firth of Clyde on the Cowal Peninsula, Argyll. The property is brimming with many original architectural features making it one of the most striking homes in the area.

The property is located on West Bay on the outskirts of Dunoon and sits in a plot measuring just over an acre and is within walking distance to Dunoon town centre via the Promenade. Berryburn is named after Berry Burn known locally as Morag’s Fairy Glen.

Berryburn has many features including brass door handles and back plates, original timber floorboards most of which are exposed timber, decorative door frame casings, and many other features throughout.  The heating is by an Aga which makes the kitchen the heart of the home.

The main entrance is accessed from Storm Doors and into a welcoming reception hall with a wonderful fireplace and exposed ceiling beams with windows looking to the front garden and the Firth of Clyde. The wonderful timber-built staircase leads to the upper floor and has a wonderful decorative window on the half landing.

On the ground floor to the front is a spacious lounge with a large bay window with wonderful views, timber fire surround and living flame gas fire. A twin leaf door leads into the conservatory which makes the most of the views to the front. A sitting room is to the opposite side of the property and has corner windows to the front and 2 feature windows to the rear with a marble fire surround in between. Off the hall is a WC at the foot of the stairs. The kitchen has a separate pantry with shelving and cupboard space, the kitchen itself has an Aga Range Style Cooker which runs the central heating system. There’s space for a table and chairs in the kitchen and there is plenty of wall mounted and floor kitchen units. The kitchen leads off to the utility room where there is plumbing and electrics for a washing machine and dryer. There is a staircase which gives access to an upper floor bedroom which was originally used by the maid.

On the upper floor there are 4 double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms and a storage cupboard which has 2 small windows looking out to the front. 2 of the bedrooms have wonderful views to the Clyde and to The Gantock which is an outcrop of rock with a light beacon and beyond it on the eastern shore is The Cloch Lighthouse built in 1797 by Robert Stevenson. The property is entered from Bullwood Road via double timber gates, the garage is directly in front of the gates and the driveway turns left then right and makes its way parallel to the garden to the front of Berryburn.

The property is freehold, and the EPC Rating is E and Council Tax Band is G

Garden
The garden has a large lawn to the front of the building and is surrounded by mature trees plants including, ferns, rhododendrons, azalea, and countless perennial wild plants. To the side of the property is a series of workshops and a feature bamboo shed.  The back of the property is surrounded by Rhododendrons and mature trees.

Dunoon town has a good range of welcoming pubs and restaurants, a library, hospital, secondary school, concerts and events at The Queens Hall, cinema, swimming pool and leisure centre. There is a new primary school in Kirn and Dunoon Grammar School within easy reach of the property. Located on the scenic Cowal Peninsula in Argyll, Berryburn is a short drive from Western Ferry terminal from where there are frequent passenger and vehicular sailings across to Gourock. From here, the road and public transport links make it possible to commute on a daily basis to Glasgow and the central belt. It is equally possible to drive to Glasgow via Loch Lomond which takes a little longer but is via some of the most famous and breath-taking countryside in western Scotland. As with most parts of Scotland, one is never too far from a golf course and
Dunoon is no exception with the district having three challenging courses.

The expanding Holy Loch Marina is nearby with its berthing and associated chandlery services, an excellent base from which to sail and explore the world-famous lower Clyde and Kyles of Bute inland sea lochs and waterways. Sea fishing is available on the Firth of Clyde and it is possible to fish for salmon and sea trout by permit on some of the rivers and lochs of the district, the River Eachaig and the freshwater Loch Eck only a few minute- drive to the north. The area is renowned for its spectacular scenery. Benmore Botanic Garden and Pucks Glen is only five miles away and there are near endless walks, hill climbs and quiet country roads offering wonderful rambling and cycling country.
