Full Details for 2 Bedroom Detached for sale in Appin, PA38 :

We are delighted to offer this truly charming 2 bedroom semi detached timber clad cottage nestling at the end of a secluded drive and conveniently located off the Oban to Fort William road. The cottage benefits from a superb elevated position commanding wonderful views out to Loch Linnhe, the Glencoe mountain range and Ben Nevis beyond. The cottage which was built at least 100 years ago and was once a home for quarry workers, has been sympathetically extended and modernised to provide very comfortable living as a permanent home or wonderful holiday hideaway. The property benefits from a large, private garden and further very large area of ground for which the current owners have planning permission (ref 12/01364/FUL) – just extended for a further 3 years - and building warrant for a garage with holiday apartment above.


Location
The cottage is located in the pretty hamlet of Kentallen off the A828/A82, close to Duror to the south with its primary school and 9 miles from Appin. Port Appin offers further facilities including a seafood restaurant and for boating enthusiasts there are moorings conveniently located close by on Loch Linnhe. Further south towards Oban is Castle Stalker with its café and the village of Benderloch with a grocery store. The busy coastal town of Oban is approximately 22 miles from Kentallen and offers a wide range of shops and services. To the north is the village of Ballachulish which also has a primary school and a little further north Fort William with its schools, wide ranging outdoor pursuits and shops.

Kentallen boasts some of the best scenic views in the area overlooking Loch Linnhe and Glencoe. In the village, the Holly Tree Hotel & Leisure Club - formerly the Kentallen station tearooms - provides excellent dining facilities and a swimming pool which is open to non residents. Forestry Commission walks are also close by at Leitir Mhor.
