Description

A beautifully presented two bedroom timber lodge occupying an enviable position within the highly regarded Torbeg Lodge Park, enjoying far-reaching southerly views across the Shiskine Valley towards Blackwaterfoot, and a spectacular mountain backdrop taking in the peaks of Beinn Nuis and Goatfell.

McAras View is a charming and well-appointed holiday lodge offering an exceptional opportunity to acquire a proven income-generating asset on one of Scotland's most beloved islands. Enjoying a dual aspect rarely found within the park, the property commands open southerly views across the valley whilst the rear elevation frames some of the most dramatic mountain scenery Arran has to offer.

Accommodation

A side entrance leads into a most useful utility room, housing the newly installed oil-fired boiler alongside wall and base units, a sink, and plumbing and space for a washing machine. There is also generous storage for outdoor equipment — a practical and welcome feature for those making the most of all that Arran's landscape affords.

From here, the accommodation opens into a bright, airy and generously proportioned open-plan kitchen, dining and living space. The kitchen is fitted with wall and base units, an electric oven with hob and an integrated fridge. There is ample room for both a substantial dining table and a comfortable sitting area, creating a sociable and relaxed environment for entertaining. French doors open directly onto the south-facing timber deck, seamlessly connecting the interior with the outstanding views across the Shiskine Valley — a connection between inside and out that elevates everyday living considerably.

The two well-appointed bedrooms are served by an en-suite shower room and a separate bathroom, ensuring comfort and convenience for owners and guests alike.

The south-facing timber deck is, without question, one of the property's most compelling features. Spacious and private, it provides an ideal setting for al fresco dining, morning coffee or simply taking in the remarkable scenery that defines this corner of the island.

Investment & Lifestyle Potential

McAras View presents an outstanding dual-purpose opportunity — a tranquil personal retreat, whilst generating a consistent and well-regarded holiday letting income. Currently achieving rates of £140 per night with excellent occupancy and demand, the property allows owners to reserve flexible personal breaks whilst continuing to perform commercially. Prospective purchasers are invited to review the current booking history, which speaks for itself.

Area Description

McAras View is within easy reach of local facilities at Blackwaterfoot, including Post office, newsagent, butchers, artisan bakery and general store. The renowned Kinloch Hotel (under new ownership) and nearby Shiskine golf course and clubhouse, tennis courts, Cairnhouse Riding Centre and stunning beach are all located close-by. The B880 known as ‘The String” spans the island from Brodick to Blackwaterfoot.

Brodick (the main town of Arran) has two larger Co-Op supermarkets and a good range of further professional services. Brodick is the port from which a regular daily sailing service by Caledonian MacBrayne leads to the mainland at Ardrossan & Troon. Commuters and travellers now benefit from Road Equivalent Tarrif (RET) ferry fares, which are substantially lower than before. Ardrossan & Troon both have a main line rail station, with trains to Glasgow that connect with the ferry times, and is approximately 30 miles from Glasgow City Centre. Prestwick International Airport is 16 miles to the south of Ardrossan, with Glasgow International Airport 24 miles east of Ardrossan.
