4 bedroom detached house for sale

The picturesque coastal conservation village of Ellenabeich is delightfully situated on the Firth of Lorne some 16 miles south of the principal West Highland town of Oban on the Island of Seil, connected to the mainland by the famous ‘Bridge Over The Atlantic’ in an area of outstanding natural beauty, steeped in history and rich in flora and fauna and is renowned for its magnificent scenery, excellent sailing and fishing waters.  There is a thriving local community with the village hall being the focal point for many activities and groups and local services on the island include a well-stocked general store/post office, primary school, bar/restaurant, medical practice, and a 9 hole golf course.   


Originally built as the Manse for the Kilbrandon Church, Atlantic House is an impressive detached Victorian property of elegant proportions situated in this picturesque conservation village and enjoys a magnificent position close to the shores of the Firth of Lorne.  Whilst in need of some modernisation the property retains many of the original characteristics associated with a property of this period with particular features being the fine woodwork, original fireplaces and impressive staircase rising to a galleried landing, together with the benefit of an oil-fired central heating system, and presents as an excellent opportunity to be upgraded to suit personal preferences.  The ambience of Atlantic House is most pleasantly enhanced by its delightful secluded garden stocked with an interesting variety of established trees, shrubs and bushes, which all adds to the appeal of this fine home.
