House For Sale £400,000
Attractive, decrofted, detached property
Quietly situated in the heart of Argyll, amidst beautiful countryside, and with views towards Loch Feochan, Fashven forms an attractive, detached bungalow with delightful garden, set in around 9.6 acres of vacant croft land. This smallholding would be ideally suited as a fantastic family home, and is complemented by the most charming grounds, including a paddock with fruit and vegetable enclosure, wooded hillside, and an elevated, wooden decking area, with direct loch views. Benefiting from double glazing (with additional, secondary glazing) and an oil fired, hot air, heating system, the property is conveniently arranged over one level and provides spacious, flexible accommodation. In very good order throughout, the large lounge and dining room, featuring floor to ceiling windows and doors, vaulted wooden ceiling with beams, and sunken snug area with impressive wood burning stove, is a most attractive feature. A semi-detached garage, with photovoltaics on the roof, and driveway, provide ample parking at the property, whilst a garden shed, wood store and greenhouse are also included.
