Property description
Miller Stewart are proud to present to the market Spindfrift, an immaculate three bedroom waterfront bungalow with outstanding sea views. The well laid out property is set in a quiet cul-de-sac located in the much sought after village of Toward, just 7 miles from Dunoon on the Cowal peninsula. Built in 1996 the home comprises 3 bedrooms (one en-suite), a lounge with a beautiful conservatory providing uninterrupted views out to the Clyde estuary, modern dining kitchen and family bathroom. An easy to maintain garden encompasses the whole house which also has a built in garage. Due to its thoughtful design this property would equally suit families or people looking to retire or downsize from larger, high maintenance properties. Dunoon ferry terminal is just a twelve minute drive away meaning the house is less than an hour and a half from Glasgow city centre making it ideal for either those working in Dunoon or those commuting to Glasgow.
Surroundings
South of Dunoon, the main road down the shore of the Firth of Clyde passes through Innellan before turning west just north of Toward Point, which forms the southernmost point of this side of the Cowal peninsula.
Toward is just 3 miles south of Innellan village which offers a variety of local amenities including Newsagents and Sub Post Office, Village Hall and Church. Dunoon Town Centre is approximately 7 miles.
The road along the south shore of this part of the Cowal Peninsula enjoys spectacular views over the Firth of Clyde to Ayrshire, Cumbrae and the Isle of Bute. Further interest is added by the steady stream of vessels passing through these busy waters, with a particularly good view afforded of the ferries between Wemyss Bay and Rothesay on the Isle of Bute. The shore itself is stony, but it does offer attractive bays well worth exploring.
Dunoon now enjoys the status of being the marine gateway to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs, Scotland's first National Park, and has a number of local amenities including a cinema, two supermarkets, several choice restaurants and bars, primary and secondary schools, library, Post Office, doctor's surgeries and veterinary clinic, leisure centre with swimming pool and gym.
Transport
A regular local bus service operates in the area and there are bus and coach services to popular regions across the West of Scotland. Regular passenger ferry services operate from Dunoon Pier to Gourock with regular bus and train connections to Glasgow Central railway station. The train stops at Paisley Gilmour Street on route, which is convenient for access to Glasgow Airport. Western Ferries located at Hunter's Quay also offers a regular vehicle service to McInroy's Point in Gourock for access to the national road network.
The property
