Fraoch, No. 15 Birlinn Brae, Strachur

A rare opportunity to acquire a stunning property at the Birlinn Brae development in Strachur. As part of a fleet of spectacular design led homes, No. 15 has been thoughtfully designed to maximise the view towards Loch Fyne.

This three bedroom detached home provides a spectacular light and airy living space extending to a generous balcony on the upper floor. The home is known as Fraoch - ‘Froo-ugh’in Scottish Gaelic, meaning heather and is a perfect example of an ‘upside- down’ style house featuring a wood-burning stove that proudly sits at the heart of the first-floor living accommodation.

On the lower floor at ground level, the generous three bedrooms and integral garage are grouped around a top-lit hallway in which an open-tread staircase beckons upwards to the light above. An external brick-clad entrance portico adds gravitas to this signature building.

Every detail of this home and development has been carefully and sympathetically curated to blend seamlessly into the natural landscape. This is a natural Scottish Larch clad house in reference to the Traditional ‘Birlinn’ galleys of Somerled, Lord of the Isles. With a metal roof in further nautical homage of tin roofs of west coast cottages and barns.

Strachur, once a ferry port to Inveraray, has a resident population of approximately 750 people, a vibrant villiage with so much to see and do. The village offers essential day to day amenities including a Post Office / Shop / Café which is opposite Birlinn Brae. The Strachur Medical Practice, Primary School, and petrol filling station with convenience store are close by with the Creggans Inn Hotel / bar and restaurant at the end of the village. For water enthusiasts the Pontoon / moorings at “Strachur Bay Moorings Association” is also nearby.

Just 20 minutes drive away in Dunoon, there is an array of further amenities. The area is synonymous for its restaurants including Inver (Michelin stared) and Loch Fyne Oyster Bar, to name a few.
