Property description
Seafield in Strone is a substantial south facing waters-edge property in the much sought after village of Strone, on the banks of the Holy Loch. Although the property has been updated recently the owners have lovingly maintained the character and charm with original cornices, high ceilings and feature windows evident throughout. With four double bedrooms (all en-suite), loch-facing drawing room, dining room and TV/family room, kitchen, utility room, study, downstairs cloakroom, large private gardens and stunning views this is an ideal family, or retirement, home set in a truly outstanding location.
The picturesque village of Strone is surrounded by natural beauty, sits on the banks of the Holy Loch and has outstanding views, not only of the loch and the Firth of Clyde, but also the surrounding hills and countryside. The area, which is approximately seven miles from Dunoon and on the edge of Scotland’s First National Park, is well served with a post office / mini market, hotel, pub, golf and bowling clubs, medical centre, churches and a fantastic primary school which has just been awarded the Green Flag. The popular, and ever expanding, Holy Loch Marina is just a few minutes drive away at the other side of the loch.
There is also a regular bus service to Dunoon making the supermarkets, shops, hairdressers, eateries, pubs, sports and sailing clubs and cinema etc easily accessible. In addition, there are two ferry links to Gourock with rail and coach links meaning that Glasgow city centre is little more than an hour away, with Glasgow Airport, Braehead Shopping Centre and Greenock even closer.
