5 bed farmhouse for sale

Balvicar, By Oban PA34

Clachandhu Farmhouse is an attractive and extended 1 ½ storey detached farmhouse, which is currently divided into two properties; a comfortable family home within the original farmhouse, which is stone built and set under a slate roof, and a spacious and well-presented modern 2-bedroom annexe. The Granary annexe has been run as a successful self-catering business for several years, with many repeat guests and excellent customer reviews. The self-catering business is well established, and the property itself is in an excellent state of maintenance and repair throughout, with tasteful décor and modern, versatile accommodation over two floors.

The property is situated on the fringe of the small village of Balvicar on the Isle of Seil, just fourteen miles from the popular coastal town of Oban. The Isle of Seil is connected to the mainland by the famous ‘Bridge over the Atlantic’. The village of Balvicar has a well-stocked village shop, doctors’ surgery, church and primary school. There is also a popular hotel/restaurant on the Island and a 9-hole golf course nearby. The area is well known for its sailing and outdoor pursuits, with numerous beautiful walks and fantastic scenery on offer nearby.

The property has obvious potential for further enhancement and development but is also well suited to those looking for a lifestyle opportunity, who would carry on living and hosting at the property simultaneously. The entire property would also be well suited to families who would benefit from multi-generational living. The property could also easily be reinstated to being one large property (with access from the farmhouse lounge), subject to the necessary consents being obtained.

The main farmhouse benefits from gas central heating (Combi boiler), together with an attractive and useful open fire in the lounge and an electric aga stove in the kitchen. The annexe has an electric boiler and has solar panels on the roof which provide electricity and heating to the annexe (underfloor heating downstairs & radiators on the upper floor), together with a small aga multi fuel stove in the lounge.

The owner is prepared to sell the property on the basis that the Annexe is fully set up to continue as a successful self-catering business. A full inventory of contents will be made available for the Annexe and the vast majority of furniture/equipment etc will be made available to the purchaser, by separate negotiation. Future bookings can also be honoured as part of the sale. Full details will be available on request.

Most large white goods are included in the sale price, together with floorcoverings and some curtains/blinds.
