Description

Oban, the principal tourist town of Argyll and the unofficial capital of the West Highlands, supports a wide range of shops, restaurants, leisure and recreational facilities and professional services. There are primary schools, a high school, a leisure/sports centre and a general hospital as well as churches of various denominations. The thriving town has an attractive sea front and bustling harbour from which Caledonian MacBrayne ferries serve many of the Hebridean Islands. The town enjoys good transport links to the central belt of Scotland by road and rail and the airport at North Connel serves private and light charter aircraft.

Gigulum is a most appealing detached home situated in a sought-after, established residential area, which is within walking distance of the town centre and close to Atlantis Leisure, the town's principal sports and leisure complex and by virtue of its elevated position commands superb open views over the roof tops to the bay and to the islands and seascape beyond. Providing extremely spacious family sized accommodation, a particular feature of note is the interesting split level design of the property and the galleried landing, whilst benefits of note are the gas central heating system and excellent storage. The amenity is enhanced by the sloping mature garden with pond and paved patio areas, together with a further decked seating area high above the house which further enriches the fabulous views.

DAWSONS is the longest established independent estate agency in Argyll and has been providing property marketing and letting management services throughout the West Highlands since it was founded in 1974.

Similarly, financial services are not offered by the firm. DAWSONS is quite simply a specialist agency dedicated to the sale and letting of its clients' properties.

In addition to its presence on all of the major internet property portals, market penetration is complemented by its membership of the National Homes Network and the Mayfair Office marketing group which is based in central London and plays an important role in obtaining valuable publicity for its clients' properties through its associations with national press property editors and feature writers.
