Description
Crinan is a substantial and characterful, traditional two-storey villa, occupying a desirable position within the town and offering generous, well-proportioned accommodation with mature gardens to the rear, an extended kitchen, and a detached garage accessible from the garden as well as the driveway. The property enjoys attractive outlooks over its gardens and towards the surrounding hills, while retaining a wealth of period features including decorative cornicing, Edinburgh press shelving and ground floor high ceiling heights. While Crinan would benefit from some modernisation, it offers excellent fundamentals and a flexible layout that can easily adapt to changing needs, making it ideal for families or those seeking a long-term “forever” home. Currently arranged as two/three bedrooms with three/four reception rooms, the accommodation could be reconfigured to provide four bedrooms with two reception spaces, or retained to suit home working, entertaining or multi-generational living. There is further scope to rework the kitchen and dining areas to create a larger kitchen-dining space, with potential to convert the existing kitchen into a large utility room. Overall, this is a rare opportunity to stamp your own character on a well-located home with strong structure, scale and future potential.
Close to Dunoon’s bustling town centre in the heart of the Cowal Peninsula, you’ll enjoy easy access
to shops, pubs, restaurants, schools, theatres, cinemas, and leisure facilities. The area is perfect for
scenic drives and outdoor pursuits, with Bishop’s Glen and the stunning landscapes around Loch
Lomond nearby. Glasgow is easily reachable by car or via public transport from the Western Ferry
terminal. Renowned for its spectacular scenery, the area offers endless walking, cycling, and hill
climbs, including the picturesque Bishop’s Glen Walk around the reservoir. For families, West Bay
play park is just a few hundred yards along the coastal promenade, while Cowal Golf Course, only 2
miles away, continues Dunoon’s proud golfing tradition. Holy Loch Marina is also close, providing an
ideal base to explore the Clyde, Kyles of Bute, and surrounding sea lochs.
