Property description & features

Description
4 Aliwal North is located within a four in a block structure, the property is completed in roughcast exterior, and the whole is under a dark grey slate roof. The house provides, light, and bright accommodation laid out over a single level with a floored and lined attic space.

The house is set within very pleasant garden grounds which are low maintenance by design. 4 Aliwal North is well set up for principal living; Kames & Tighnabruaich are also well-known west of Scotland holiday and short break destinations and so Aliwal North offers great scope as a second or income producing holiday home.

Outer front door to welcoming entrance hallway, kitchen, single bedroom with storage cupboard, family bathroom with overhead shower, sitting room cum dining room, log burning stove, windows to front gardens and views towards the famous ‘Kyles of Bute’. Via spiral staircase to floored and lined attic space with 3 x velux windows and access to eves space stores.

Outbuildings
There is a detached communal, former stable block under a dark grey slate roof the use of which is shared with neighbours.

Garden
Via a shared gravel driveway to ample vehicular hard standing and parking at the rear of the property. The gardens are low maintenance by design and are mainly to a level lawn area which lies at the rear of the property, all of which is communal and bounded by close board fencing.
Situation
4 Aliwal North is situated within the village of Kames which sits just to the south of Tighnabruaich; perhaps its rather better known neighbour.

The apartment is set within the heart of the village and from where there are aspects to the neighbouring island of Bute, the waterscape of the famous Kyles of Bute, north to the sheltered anchorages at Tighnabruaich and south towards the island of Inchmarnock.

Kames has its own hotel, post office and shop which easily caters for everyday needs and requirements. The centre of Tighnabruaich is about 1.5 miles to the north and is a well-known sheltered anchorage with moorings, that are always lively with the coming and going of boating and yachting craft. The village centre offers local amenities and further shops that cater for everyday needs and requirements. A bus service runs from Kames via Tighnabruaich to both Rothesay and Dunoon.

Portavadie Marina is 4.2 miles away and has in recent years seen significant investment in creating a modern state of the art Marina infrastructure, with associated chandlery, restaurant, accommodation and spa facilities. The marina is fast gaining a reputation among the sailing communities as a must go to destination and many drive to the marina for culinary days and evenings out.

Tarbert is 8.9 miles to the west and there is a ferry service from Portavadie direct to Tarbert.

The city of Glasgow is 55 miles distant (albeit interrupted by a not unpleasant boat crossing to Gourock) and has numerous retail districts and all the higher educational, cultural and leisure services, normally associated with a major international centre.

Tighnabruaich has a reputable and award winning primary school and secondary is available at Dunoon Grammar or Tarbert via a short crossing from Portavadie.

The area is famous for its dramatic natural scenic beauty; yachtsmen and women around the world sail through the scenic Kyles from the Clyde marinas and on up through Loch Fyne to Ardrishaig through the Crinan canal and out to the Hebridean islands.

The area offers much in the way of relaxing outdoor pursuits; Tighnabruaich Golf Club is a scenic and challenging 9-hole golf course. There is tennis and inevitably, a famous sailing school.

Sea, river and loch fishing are also available in the area, as are a number of commercially run shoots. Some of the local estates allow stalking by arrangement.

Tighnabruaich lies on “Argyll’s Secret Coast”, which stretches from Strachur at the top of Loch Fyne round the coast to Colintraive. It is an area of stunning natural beauty where there are countless opportunities to discover peaceful locations. Nearby activities include walks in forests or along the coast, fishing kayaking or sailing and enjoying the wildlife.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
