A wonderful opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented four-bedroom detached property, set in a wonderful, rural location on the ever-popular Isle of Colonsay and benefitting from far-reaching coastal views

The property is entered via a sheltered front entrance, leading into a welcoming lobby before opening into the central hallway. The hallway extends toward the rear of the home and leads into a spacious triple aspect living space, where large windows frame panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and coastline.

This impressive open plan space offers a comfortable lounge area with maple flooring and a multifuel stove, dedicated dining zone, and a bright breakfast space which flows seamlessly into the well appointed kitchen, fitted with a range of beech effect wall and floor units, complemented by a contrasting work surface. To the right of the hallway, a ground floor double bedroom with ensuite facilities provides excellent flexibility, ideal as a guest suite or accessible bedroom. Dual aspect windows allow natural daylight to fill the room, while built in wardrobes offer convenient storage. A sizable utility room is also located on this level, connected internally to the attached garage, ensuring practicality for everyday use. A separate toilet and additional storeroom complete the ground floor accommodation.

The wood panelled staircase leads to the upper floor, where a spacious landing gives access to three further bedrooms. Two of these bedrooms benefit from private ensuite facilities, and all feature built in wardrobes, ensuring plentiful storage throughout. One of the most distinctive features of the upper level is the quirky glass floor viewing panel, set within the upper landing area.
This striking architectural detail offers a unique perspective down to the room below, while a large window floods the space with natural light. Soft carpeting and tasteful décor complete the inviting atmosphere. A large dedicated hobbies room is also located on this floor—an exceptionally bright and versatile space illuminated by large Velux windows.

Perfect for creative pursuits, studio use, or a children’s play area, the room also incorporates two useful built-in storage cupboards. A well appointed family bathroom and a separate linen store further enhance the practicality of the upper floor.
