Benefiting from a south facing location, particular note should be drawn to the extensive gardens to the front and rear, mainly laid to lawn with patio area, stone built outhouses at the rear which are divided into three with electricity supply for light and power and a variety of mature trees and shrubs backing onto the private woodland at the rear.

Internally, the impressive accommodation boasts many original and spectacular features and, of course generous proportions in all apartments are a feature too. The current layout consists of an entrance vestibule leading into the welcoming reception hallway which has an with impressive sweeping staircase with ornate balustrade to side, period features, attractive flooring and three storage cupboards off.

A jaw dropping drawing room has a walk in bow window formation, enjoying stunning panoramic views out over the front lawn across the River Clyde towards Arran and Bute and the Cowal Peninsula. The focal point of this room is stunning coal/woodburning fireplace.

There is a second public room again with focal point fireplace enjoying the same delightful views to the front over the Clyde. There is a downstairs modern shower room, which has been modernised and includes a WC, wash hand basin, double walk in shower with Mira Sport electric shower.

The well-proportioned breakfasting kitchen is accessed through a cosy snug / morning room which has a rear porch / boiler room off and access out to the garden. The kitchen offers a wide array of wall and base mounted units with a large, well fitted utility room off. There is a second backdoor off the utility.

On the upper level, there are a three double sized bedrooms. The sumptuous master bedroom comes complete with bespoke 'fitted 'Sharps' wardrobes and there are period features and a semi-circular stone balcony with wrought iron feature detailing - again the views from here are breathtaking and such a gem to wake up to every morning - come rain or shine..... The family bathroom completes the upper level and has a three piece suite.

The gardens to the front are mature and are bound by walls and hedging. A tarmac driveway provides parking for several cars and is bordered to the side by a lawn area. enclosed by stone walls at the front. The rear garden, once a croquet lawn, is well proportioned with views out to the water too. It extends into its own mature woodland at the rear of the garden. In addition, the property has a single garage as well as an additional double tandem timber garage and the property benefits from oil central heating, part double glazing and a loft storage space.

Mention should be made to the upgrading works which are required however, the agents feel this has been reflected in the attractive asking price when this concern is compared to similar properties which have recently sold in this highly sought after area.....however, the agents do anticipate a fantastic response from their marketing endeavours and therefore encourage interested parties to view early to avoid disappointment as rarely does such a superb opportunity become available to the market.

The period features within the well-proportioned and flexible accommodation are surely the main selling features of this Scots traditional villa., and again, early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the generosity of proportions and the flexibility of the accommodation on offer. Viewing is strictly by appointment.
