Lag-an-Daraich offers buyers an opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented seven-bedroom detached villa, sitting in a popular residential area within the vibrant coastal town of Oban

Lag-an-Daraich presents an exceptional opportunity to acquire an impressive, detached three-storey Victorian villa, set within the vibrant coastal town of Oban. This striking home offers an abundance of character and generous living accommodation arranged over three levels, with the lower ground floor thoughtfully configured to provide three high-quality en-suite guest rooms—ideal for AirB&B or similar holiday-letting use.

Upon entering the property at ground-floor level, the main door opens into a welcoming vestibule, leading through to an expansive central hallway. To the left, a charming front-facing sitting room—currently utilised as a home office or study—provides a quiet and versatile space. Also positioned to the left of the hall is the family lounge, a bright and airy dual-aspect room elevated to enjoy pleasant views. This elegant space showcases many of the villa’s original period features, including decorative cornicing and beautifully preserved, functional window shutters.

To the right of the hallway, the well-appointed family kitchen is fitted with a range of wooden wall and base units, complemented by a contrasting granite-effect work surface. The layout includes a built-in double oven and hob, along with an under-counter dishwasher, washing machine, and dryer. The boiler is also housed within the kitchen for convenience.

From the kitchen, a door opens into the impressive family dining room—an excellent space for entertaining—while also providing secondary access from the main hallway. A ground-floor WC is located beneath the staircase and is accessible from the dining room.

The staircase ascends to the first floor, where the family accommodation comprises four bedrooms.

Two of these benefit from private en-suite facilities, while the third and fourth bedrooms are linked and share a well-appointed shower room positioned on the landing.

The lower ground floor, accessible from the side garden, opens into a central hallway serving three beautifully finished guest bedrooms. Each room has been completed to an exceptionally high standard, as reflected in the property's excellent guest reviews. A plant room provides additional storage, supplemented by a further cupboard located beneath the internal staircase connecting this level to the main hall above.

Externally, the property enjoys private parking beside the main entrance, with additional guest parking available at the lower ground level. A pleasant side garden offers an inviting place for guests to relax, while a sheltered courtyard garden—accessed directly from the kitchen—provides a peaceful outdoor seating area. A useful storage shed is also located adjacent to the parking area.
