3 bed detached house for sale

Ard-Na-Dail, Lochgair, Lochgilphead PA31

Ard-Na-Dail is a spacious, modern and very well presented detached bungalow that is tucked away in a quiet corner of this picturesque village, located close to the shores of Loch Fyne.

Set in a cul-de-sac and backing on to open countryside and wooded hills, the property enjoys a great deal of privacy, together with a versatile layout, perfect for those looking for all-on-the-level living. The original garage of the property has been cleverly converted in to a large open plan area that currently incorporates a lounge/bedroom/kitchen area along with a separate laundry room and office space. The property has undergone a great deal of modernisation over the past few years, including a refitted kitchen, bathroom and ensuite. There is double glazing throughout the property, oil fired central heating with remote wifi control and high speed broadband.

On entering the gardens, a monoblock paved driveway provides parking for several cars and a path leads from the road to the front door. To the front there is a lawned garden with hedged borders providing privacy and screening and the large side garden features vegetable plots, various timber stores and sheds and plenty of space for boat/caravan storage. To the rear of the house, backing on to the lovely countryside, there is a large decked terrace incorporating a sizeable electric hot tub which is included in the sale. A perfect place for relaxing and entertaining.

On entering the house, an outer vestibule gives access to a large ‘T’ shaped hallway which has built in storage. To one side of the hall there is a large, bright, open plan lounge and dining room which has picture windows to both front and rear, enjoying fantastic views over the countryside. There are also two side windows providing further natural light. A large multifuel stove to the centre heats the room. The kitchen has been beautifully refitted and comes with wall mounted and counter level units, a range of appliances including integrated fridge/freezer, double oven, microwave, hob, hood and dishwasher. A window and door open out to the back gardens. The master bedroom is a good sized double room with window to the front and enjoys its own luxuriously appointed and refitted ensuite shower room which has a wc, wash hand basin and shower enclosure. There are two further double bedrooms and the main family shower room has a walk-in shower, wc and vanity wash hand basin with built in storage and backlit mirror. The original garage which is integral to the house has a French door giving access to the front with windows and door to the rear gardens. The large open plan space to the front would be ideal as a living room/bedroom and to the rear of the space is an office/study area which could be converted into a bathroom/shower room. There is also a laundry room which could be easily converted for use as a kitchen. This area can be completely separated from the main house and offers great potential for a guest suite or holiday letting business.

A much sought after deep water mooring is also available in Lochgair bay, a two minute walk from the property.
