Property description
A superb, newly refurbished two bedroom first floor apartment in the centre of Oban, offering an excellent opportunity to buy in the heart of this delightful seaside town; 24A High Street offers spacious living in a very central yet quiet location off Argyll Square.
The apartment lies within walking distance of the railway station, buses and ferry terminal, making it ideal as a holiday base from which to explore the region, or as a permanent home, conveniently situated a stone’s throw from Oban’s numerous shops, restaurants, schools and leisure facilities.
This purpose built apartment has benefited from significant investment over the years, the most recent being the addition of wall insulation to all the external walls, maintenance work to the roof and extensive internal refurbishment. The result is a very attractive, light apartment with many original features, providing a delightful home for professionals, families or the retired. The property is keenly priced for a quick sale.
Location
Unlike its name suggests, High Street is a popular, quiet residential road off the historic Argyll Square, which has been an important landmark in the town for many years. High Street provides easy access to a choice of locations, including a handy pedestrian walkway to some of the town’s major supermarkets. There is residents’ parking on this and surrounding streets and quick and convenient access to the A85.
