This is a perfect family or holiday home set in an idyllic location.
The picturesque village of Kames sits on the Kyles of Bute and is famous for its scenic beauty and sailing waters. The village, along with the neighbouring villages Tighnabruaich and Millhouse, benefits from small local independent retailers as well as post offices, a bank, hotels, cafes and restaurants. The world renowned steamer, Waverley, also regularly berths at the pier. The wider area boasts a golf course, tennis court, children’s play area, sailing clubs and the ever expanding, and growing in stature, Portavadie Marina.
Access
Hazelwood can be accessed via a single gate or a double gate, both of which are situated at the front of the property on the shore road. A pathway off the single gate leads to the front door, whilst the double gate opens up to the shared driveway at the side of the property and on to the entrance at the rear of the house.
LOWER FLOOR
Hallway
Storm doors, then an inner door, at the front of the property take you to the lower hallway which stretches the length of the house and allows access to the sitting room, dining kitchen, bathroom, stairs to the upper floor and the back door. The hall benefits by a brand new carpet, two ceiling lights, two radiators and a large cupboard.
Sitting Room
4.8m x 3.8m
The sitting rooms sits at the front of the property and the enormous, bespoke, window is perfect for gazing out to the Kyles of Bute and the surrounding hills and countryside. The room, which also overlooks the front garden, is carpeted, has a ceiling light and radiator.
Kitchen / Diner
4.6m x 3.9m
The good-sized dining kitchen has recently gone through a complete overhaul. The light-wood wall and base units with contrasting marble-effect worktops compliment the gleaming Rayburn stove, which heats the radiators and hot water. There is also ample room for several white goods. A shelved area is very handy for pots and pans, kitchen utensils and decorative ornaments. A window to the side and a further window to the rear ensure that the welcoming room is always kept bright and airy.
Bathroom
2m x 2m
The bathroom has also recently been totally transformed to a high standard. The clean, crisp white suite comprises of WC, wash-hand basin and bath, with shower over. The room is predominantly tiled and has a heated towel rail and opaque window to the side.
The newly carpeted stairs lead to the upper floor and benefit by having a Velux Window over providing plenty of natural light.
UPPER FLOOR
Hallway
The new carpet continues upstairs to the upper hallway which leads to the three bedrooms. A radiator keeps the hall cosy.

Gardens
The private front garden is mainly lawn and has a patio directly in front of sitting room which is ideal for a table and chairs. Plants and shrubs add colour. The front garden is perfect for having a glass of wine and leisurely watching the activity on the loch, which is literally a stone’s throw away. The shared driveway leads to the enclosed back garden which has a patio / barbeque area at the back door, a gently sloping lawn which leads to trees and bushes which form part of the garden and provide complete privacy at the rear. A storage shed is joined on the house and currently stores wood for the Rayburn and a further tin shed is handy for garden equipment. There is ample space for a conservatory or extension at the rear and planning permission would more than likely be accepted. Both the front and back garden offer a peaceful and tranquil setting to enjoy alfresco dining, entertaining or somewhere purely to enjoy the stunning surroundings on offer.
Parking
Generally, cars are parked at the front of the houses on the quiet shore road. The shared driveway could also be used for parking, however.
Mooring
Although there is currently no mooring with this property it is unlikely that there would be any problems obtaining permission to site a mooring in front of the house.
Extras
The house is being sold with basic fixtures and fittings, however certain other items may be negotiable.
