Beautiful detached home with magnificent gardens and the most stunning of loch, hill and country views in the sought-after coastal village of Strachur. ‘Heather Brae’, which has been modernised and upgraded in recent times is presented to the market in absolute walk-in condition and comprises open-plan living with the lounge looking down to the bay and the hills beyond through the ‘picture frame’ windows and boasting a homely multi-fuel stove, the good sized dining area connects the lounge and the contemporary well-appointed kitchen with French Doors to the side garden, three double bedrooms, one of which has a lovely en-suite shower room, and family bathroom. Air source heating, new double glazing and solid wooden flooring are just some of the internal benefits of this beautiful home.

Surrounded by rolling countryside and hills, on the shores of Loch Fyne, Strachur is situated perfectly for commuting to Dunoon, the Royal Burgh of Inveraray, or Loch Lomond, but is still only little more than an hour's drive away from Glasgow. Strachur boasts a well-known Inn offering accommodation, restaurant and lounge bar, a Medical Centre with in-house pharmacy, Post Office with well stocked shop and tea room, retail service station, a vibrant community hall and a primary school with secondary school in Dunoon. The Loch Lomond & Cowal Way is Scotland's most diverse, long distance footpath, available to cyclists, walkers and horse riders. It passes through Strachur and some of the most dramatic scenery in the West Highlands, eventually linking up with the West Highland Way.
