Attractive island steading conversion with lovely views and 5 acres.
Description
Kinloch Steadings is a charming two storey converted steading that was originally constructed in the mid 1800s as traditional farm buildings, and has been redeveloped and extended twice since the 1980s. The property is of stone construction under a slate roof and offers well-proportioned internal accommodation, with numerous outbuildings and around 5.1 acres of scenic land including a wildflower meadow, woodland, grazing and an ancient burial ground. The property has planning permission for a 1100 sq ft two bedroom, self contained apartment over the garage.
The accommodation begins with a vestibule that leads into a spacious contemporary dining kitchen with a range of built in storage options, integrated appliances and plenty of space for dining and entertaining. A door leads through to the library (this room would also work well as a family room or playroom) which has a staircase leading up and a perfectly positioned window and patio door designed to take full advantage of the view over Loch Beg towards Ben More.
The lounge benefits from a woodburning stove, storage cupboard and a large window with a view over the property’s own woodland; a door leads outside to the courtyard and another through to the rear hallway which has two versatile bedrooms, a utility room and a shower room located off. Another door leads through to the attached garages/former stables that offer excellent storage with potential to extend. This space is currently home to the state of the art wood pellet boiler and plant room.
Upstairs there are two double bedrooms both benefitting from dual aspect views over the countryside and built in storage. Finally a large family bathroom with bath, separate shower, low level WC and wash hand basin completes the accommodation.
Kinloch Steadings is approached by a long driveway that leads round to a courtyard offering plenty of external parking for vehicles. The low maintenance grounds are exceptionally attractive and one of the best features of the property. The total area equates to approximately 5.1 acres. Further benefits include a private water supply via the property’s own borehole, double glazed window units and high spec Biomass heating system.
Location
Kinloch Steadings is situated on the Isle of Mull, within the small village of Pennyghael in the Ross of Mull at the head of Loch Scridain, overlooking Loch Beg.
The island of Mull was formed by volcanic activity many millions of years ago. Its northern coast is separated by the Sound of Mull from the land mass of Ardnamurchan, the most westerly point of the UK mainland.
The island is renowned for its varied and extensive wildlife, marine life, geology, landscapes and sea views, together with its numerous bridleways and footpaths for walkers of all ages and levels of expertise, including its very own Munro, Ben More, which can be seen from the property.
The house is well placed to take advantage of the local wildlife. White-tailed and golden eagles, hen harriers, great northern divers, gannets, terns and ground nesting birds including skylark, lapwing, wheatear, pipits and warblers are all commonly spotted in the area. Red deer and otters are regular visitors as are common and grey seals. In the summer basking sharks, dolphins and porpoise can also be seen around the coastline. Mull has the largest breeding population of white-tailed (sea) eagles in Europe and the elusive corncrake is a regular target species for ‘twitchers’ from all over the country.
