Location
Tanglewood occupies a magnificent position within the exclusive development of Otter Creek which is an enviable location on the outskirts of Taynuilt approximately one mile from the centre of the village and in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
Tanglewood has its boundary on the River Nant and the surrounding area is rich in wildlife and also adjacent to the Glen Nant National Nature Reserve. Part of the planning permission for the original development was that nothing should impede the otters which can be seen along the riverbank. The gardens of Tanglewood are regularly frequented by red squirrels.
The village of Taynuilt is an attractive and thriving community supporting a number of traditional stores including butcher, general store and post office and there is a village hotel and restaurant. The Glasgow to Oban rail service stops at Taynuilt and the village is approximately 11 miles from Oban which provides a wide range of shopping and leisure facilities as well as professional services, primary schools and a high school. There are good travel links via bus, sea and air, and the town, known as the 'Gateway to the Isles' is also the main Caledonian Macbrayne ferry terminal servicing the Inner Hebrides and several of the Outer Hebridian islands.
Description
Tanglewood is a magnificent architect designed detached villa, which featured in The Sunday Times when it was completed in 2009. The house has been designed to take full advantage of its dramatic woodland setting on the banks of the River Nant.
Designed by the Oban-based architect Shauna Cameron following the owners' inspirational visit to a timber lodge in Canada, Tanglewood was built with Siberian larch cladding with a slated roof and overhanging eaves. The wrap around timber decked verandah maximises the opportunities to appreciate the beautiful open aspects to Glen Etive. Tanglewood has been carefully designed to both complement its native woodland setting and to be energy efficient, with high tech Andersen fibrex Argon filled glazing, solid concrete floors which make the most of the solar heat and ground source heat pump with inclusive heat recovery system as well as underfloor heating.
The accommodation on the ground floor begins with an entrance vestibule that opens into a beautiful open plan reception hallway with steps leading down to the stunning double height open plan drawing room / kitchen with log burner and double glazed picture windows framing the wonderful views. The flooring is made of oak and the ceiling is clad in red cedar. The kitchen / dining area has a wide range of built-in appliances and the ground floor accommodation includes two well proportioned double bedrooms, the family bathroom and a fitted utility room. On the upper floor is a substantial open plan landing, principal bedroom with en suite shower room and doors out to the decked balcony. On the other side of the upper floor there is another large double bedroom also with en suite shower room A door leads to the open plan additional bedroom / play room.. The basement is substantial and currently comprises two stores, workshop, tool shed, wash room and bike store.
The enchanting surrounding gardens are mainly lawned with a wide variety of mature trees and shrubs and include a beautiful timber cabin and greenhouse. The boundary borders the River Nant where there are regular sightings of otters and red squirrels (please refer to enclosed photographs.)
