Rarely available shoreside Victorian villa with truly spectacular views! Set over two levels, ‘Holland Cottage’ is situated in large grounds and is extremely versatile with numerous reception rooms and bedrooms. The current layout comprises lounges on both floors, kitchen, two bedrooms on the lower floor with a further bedroom on the upper floor, bathroom, shower room, and entrance porch. There is also an annexe, however this room is currently closed off due to its condition. Although in need of remedial works and modernisation, this represents a fantastic opportunity to purchase a property with huge potential, in the most enviable of settings and it is not expected to be on the market long, so early viewing is highly recommended. Please note, however, that in view of the condition of Holland Cottage, it is expected that it will not form suitable security for loan purposes and should therefore only be cash buyers who express an interest in viewing or purchasing the property.

Sandbank is approximately three miles from Dunoon, Cowal’s capital town. The village, which sits on the banks of the Holy Loch, boasts a marina, sailing club, village shop / post office, two pubs, primary school, bowling club and a children’s play area with basketball / 5-a-side football pitch. The famous Benmore Botanic Garden and Loch Eck are just a couple of miles further north. In the Dunoon area there are two supermarkets, local shops and hairdressers aplenty, several cafes and restaurants, offering a range to suit all tastes and budgets, plenty of pubs, two leisure centres, numerous golf, bowling and tennis clubs, a two-screen cinema, a local museum and a concert venue. There are also ample churches, medical surgeries, dentists, a hospital and a veterinary practice. In addition, there are two ferry links to Gourock with rail and coach links meaning that Glasgow city centre is little more than an hour away, with Glasgow Airport, Braehead Shopping Centre and Greenock even closer.

Places of interest

    Since its inception, Waterside Property has grown from strength to strength. We have sold more properties than any other Dunoon agency in each of the last 5 years. If you want to get the best price for your property with the best possible service why not speak with us today. Waterside Property was started in 2009 by Gary Campbell, an experienced estate agent and Dunoon’s top selling agent for the previous six years. Gary’s vision was to set up an honest, hard working and highly professional estate agency. Gary wanted Waterside to provide sellers and buyers of property in Argyll an all-round service that was second to none. He managed to achieve this...and some! Sadly, Gary passed away in 2013. However, his hopes and plans of establishing Waterside Property as the Number 1 estate agency in Dunoon and Argyll came into fruition and our team is committed to ensuring his legacy of providing first class service at all times continues.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

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

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
