Eilean Fraoich, North Connel, By Oban PA37

The scattered rural community of North Connel is a sought-after residential area extending along the northern shores of Loch Etive towards Bonawe. There is an excellent range of local services available in the nearby villages of Benderloch and Connel, with a more comprehensive range of shops, professional services, leisure and recreational facilities available in the principal town of Oban, some eight miles or so away.

Eilean Fraoich is a fabulous contemporary property, of excellent quality, situated close to the Connel Bridge and enjoying a pleasant open outlook over Loch Etive and towards Ben Cruachan. Offering exceptional accommodation, it has been designed with full height windows, vaulted ceilings and a mezzanine floor to fully capture the natural light of its surroundings. The versatile living space is arranged over three floors, with a self-contained, 2 bedroomed apartment on the ground floor, which offers scope for extending family use, holiday lets (subject to the necessary licence) or simply seamlessly integrated into the main accommodation to give a more generous arrangement of rooms. A distinctive feature is the superb layout of the first floor living areas, which interlinks the lounge, dining room and kitchen maximising the space and light throughout. The kitchen is fitted with a seamless flow of stylish units, together with Neff ovens and central island with Neff induction hob. The patio doors in the dining room open to the magnificent decked area creating a strong connection with indoor-outdoor living. The principal bedroom suite on the third floor has been fitted with bespoke joinery and the luxurious en-suite has a freestanding bath and separate shower, together with a walk-in wardrobe. Also on the third floor are the two mezzanine rooms that give the unique versatility of two separate areas for home working. The beautifully landscaped gardens surrounding Eilean Fraoich extend to just under half an acre with garden studio, ideal a hobby room or as a gym, all adding to the appeal of this incredibly stylish home.
