Immerse yourself in the magic of Islay at Orsay House, a captivating property nestled on this idyllic island. Islay, famed for its rich peat-smoked whiskies, dramatic coastlines, beautiful beaches and wildlife, offers a true escape from the ordinary. Orsay House seamlessly blends modern comforts with traditional features, all framed by breathtaking panoramic vistas of the rugged Islay landscape.
Perfectly Situated:
Islay is a short 30 minute flight from Glasgow airport, or a 2 hour crossing on the regular ferry from the mainland. With a population of just over three thousand, the island is well provided for with a number of restaurants, supermarkets, shops, garages, schools, doctors, dentist and a small hospital.
Situated within a charming coastal village, on a quiet no through road, Orsay House offers the perfect balance of tranquillity and convenience. Portnahaven, a traditional fishing village, with pub, church, village hall and regular transport links, boasts a rich history and a friendly local community. Renowned Islay distilleries, inviting eateries and stunning walks, are just a short distance away, offering a taste of the island's culture and vibrant offerings.
Exceptional Features:
Step inside Orsay House and discover a haven of spaciousness, perfect for families or those who love to entertain. High ceilings throughout create a sense of grandeur, whilst a formal living room, with its elegant coving and original fireplace with multifuel stove, invites relaxation and boasts stunning coastal views. The heart of the home is the large social kitchen, with a range of quality appliances, ideal for creating culinary delights while enjoying the company of loved ones or bed and breakfast guests alike.
Bedroom 1, conveniently located on the ground floor, provides a haven of relaxation with a sizeable en-suite shower room and front-facing views. Three additional well-appointed bedrooms grace the first floor, the master suite is a dual aspect bedroom featuring original fireplace, ornate coving and an en-suite shower room. Two further double bedrooms offer comfortable retreats for family or guests and this floor is completed by a lovely family bathroom. A pull down loft ladder leads to a large floored loft area with shelving, light and power and a Velux window.
You are sure to be in comfort with the added benefit of oil fired central heating and double and triple glazing throughout, what more could you ask for!
Garden Oasis:
The well maintained front garden features a substantial garage and driveway, with parking for a number of vehicles. Let your worries melt away as you unwind on the expansive deck, taking in the sights and sounds of the wildlife-rich coastline. Perhaps you'll spot seals basking on the rocks, hear the calls of seabirds soaring overhead, or spot dolphins in the bay. Escape to the landscaped gardens to the rear, your own private sanctuary. Explore the various tiers of the garden, including a lawned area, shed, greenhouse, Keder Polytunnel and tranquil seating areas. As a unique highlight, ascend to the top garden for truly breathtaking panoramic views.
Embrace self-sufficiency with the property's vegetable garden, offering ample space to cultivate a bounty of fresh, seasonal produce.
