About this property
A Rare Opportunity To Substantially Renovate A Charming Traditional Property
Approved Planning Permission For Alterations And Extension In Place
Situated In An Enviable Coastal Position
Enjoying Outstanding Views Over Loch Melfort And To The Islands Beyond
With A Delightful Mature South Facing Garden
The picturesque, rural village of Kilmelford is scattered around the shores of Loch Na Cille, situated on the A816 between the towns of Oban (about 15 miles) and Lochgilphead (about 21 miles) and enjoys a thriving community life with local services including a village hall which hosts many events and clubs, a licensed hotel with pub and restaurant which is under new ownership and due to re-open soon, a parish church and boatyard/yachting marina. Primary schooling is provided in the nearby village of Kilninver and secondary education in Oban, with a bus service providing transport to both. The surrounding area is steeped in history with an abundance of flora and fauna and abounds with outdoor sporting and leisure opportunities including shooting, fishing and hill walking and is particularly renowned for its excellent sailing waters, with the yachting marinas of Ardfern and Croabh Haven close by.
Tigh na Mara is situated in a highly sought-after and enviable position which commands magnificent, unobstructed views over Loch Na Cille, towards Loch Melfort and to the islands beyond, in a small ribbon of individual properties, about half a mile from the heart of the village and a short distance along the single track road which leads to Degnish. Believed to originate from the early 1800's the house was originally built as the local primary school and converted in the 1950's. The current owners have obtained planning permission (Argyll & Bute Council Reference 25/01664/pp) to transform the property into a spectacular modern, extended home but due to a change in circumstances the property is now coming back to the market. The interior of the property has been stripped back in preparation for the works and offers an exciting opportunity for a purchaser to carry out the approved works or to apply to alter these plans to their own requirements subject to council approval, or simply restore to its original layout, all in keeping with the charm and character associated with a property of its period.
In addition, Tigh na Mara enjoys a most beautiful mature garden, with sweeping lawns and stocked with an interesting variety of plants, flowering shrubs and trees, bordered by stone walls and hedging, offering a good degree of seclusion with a naturally wooded hillside to the rear. There is a gated access off the single-track road to a parking area. There is a further area of mature garden opposite the property, on the shore-side, which all adds to the appeal of this unique project.
