Talisker, North Connel, By Oban, PA37 1RA

The scattered rural community of North Connel is a sought-after residential area extending along the northern shores of Loch Etive towards Bonawe. There is an excellent range of local services available in the nearby villages of Benderloch and Connel, with a more comprehensive range of shops, professional services, leisure and recreational facilities available in the principal town of Oban, some seven miles or so away.

Talisker is an impressively large and well appointed detached property commanding fine open aspects towards Loch Etive to the front and towards Lochan na Beithe and Beinn Lora to the rear. Offering extremely versatile living space particular features of note are the elegantly proportioned sitting room with double doors leading to the dining room and the generous hall with staircase leading to the upper floor galleried landing which maximises the feeling of light and space throughout. On the upper floor the principal bedroom is complete with dressing room and modern bathroom with separate shower. Also on the upper floor is the lounge and by virtue of its elevated position enjoys views of Connel Bridge. This room could easily be utilised as a further bedroom with the possibility of the study becoming an en-suite, subject to necessary permissions. In addition, Talisker benefits from excellent storage and an effective LPG heating system with the boiler having been recently replaced, augmented by the multi-fuel stoves which also give the reception rooms a striking focal point. The grounds are predominately to the rear of the house and are made up of sweeps of lawn, framed by an interesting variety of shrubs, bushes and trees and bordered by fencing and hedging, all adding to the desirability of this fine home.
