Property description
A Beautiful 5 Bedroom Semi-Detached Traditionally Built Cottage
A beautiful 5 Bedroom semi-detached traditionally built cottage perfectly positioned to enjoy the superb views over the Clyde Estuary. Fox Bank is well maintained and presented in an excellent condition and has been upgraded over the last 2 years. A perfect family home or ideal for those preferring a spacious property in a dream location.
The property consists of: 5 double bedrooms 4 of which have Ensuite facilities, a separate W.C. And shower room, 3 public rooms, kitchen, hallway and entrance porch/conservatory. The previous kitchen has been replaced with a stunning new kitchen with a new range style cooker with extractor above. Ample storage from the wall and floor mounted kitchen units finished with solid wood work surfaces and ceramic floor tiles. The accommodation is very flexible and would suit a variety of buyers. With 2 ensuite bedrooms being located on the ground floor it could suit elderly parents or those with mobility problems or alternatively they could be used as office/work space rooms for those working from home. The dining room is currently being used as a games room but could be converted back to a dining room if required. The upper floor has 3 further bedrooms, 2 double bedrooms to the front with outstanding views to the water and surrounding hills and one overlooking the back garden. The heating is by gas central heating and the windows are double glazed.
To the front of the property is a sizable car parking area surrounded by mature shrubs and small trees and a lawn area in the middle of the driveway. To the left of the property is a timber garage and a stonewall surrounding the front garden. To the rear of the property is a patio outside the back door and a substantial lawn surrounded by hedging allowing a private area to relax. There is a handy garden shed for outdoor storage.
The property has been well maintained and has been upgraded in many areas over the past 2 years making it in walk-in condition leaving the new owners little to do when moving in.
The centre of the bustling town of Dunoon is approximately 1 mile to the south of the property. Dunoon is the main town of the Cowal Peninsula and has a complete range of shopping, leisure and professional services. The town has a good range of welcoming pubs and restaurants, a library, hospital, secondary school, theatre, cinema, swimming pool and leisure centre. There is a primary school in nearby Kirn along with Dunoon Grammar School. Located on the scenic Cowal Peninsula in Argyll, Foxbank is a short walk from Western Ferry terminal from where there are frequent passenger and vehicular sailings across to Gourock. From here, the road and public transport links make it possible to commute on a daily basis to Glasgow and the central belt. It is equally possible to drive to Glasgow via Loch Lomond which takes a little longer but is via some of the most famous and breath-taking countryside in western Scotland. As with most parts of Scotland, one is never too far from a golf course and Dunoon is no exception - the district having three challenging courses.
The expanding Holy Loch Marina is nearby with its berthing and associated chandlery services, an excellent base from which to sail and explore the world famous lower Clyde and Kyles of Bute inland sea lochs and waterways.
Sea fishing is available on the Firth of Clyde and it is possible to fish for salmon and sea trout by permit on some of the rivers and lochs of the district, the River Eachaig and the freshwater Loch Eck only a few minutes′ drive to the north. The area is renowned for its spectacular scenery. Benmore Botanic Garden is only five miles away and there are near endless walks, hill climbs and quiet country roads offering wonderful rambling and cycling country.
