Description
Brass Mans’ Hand is a unique and exciting opportunity to acquire a 18th century ‘B’ listed property located within the heart of Inveraray. The apartment is completed in traditional white painted stone with contrasting black painted detailing in keeping with the essence of Inveraray itself. The accommodation is located behind a striking private door access with the original historic ‘Brass Mans Hand’ door knocker.
The apartment is located on the ground floor and is laid out across one easily managed living and bright level and whilst the accommodation requires a degree of upgrading and modernisation, once completed, it will lend itself perfectly as a principal private residency. As you are well aware, Inveraray is also a well-known west of Scotland holiday and short break destination and so the property offers considerable scope as a second, or income producing self-catering holiday letting home.

Inveraray is a classic 18th century planned town that was built on the site of an early fishing village by the 3rd Duke of Argyll. The town is known as the western gateway to the Highlands and Islands. There is a good range of local shops and provisions stores including a mid-size co-op. There are also boutique type specialist shops, cafés and restaurants including the Samphire Seafood restaurant which sells mainly locally sourced produce. The George Hotel has always drawn people to the area and has an enviable reputation for providing award winning food and drink as well as hosting regular live entertainment at the weekends. Loch Fyne Oysters is also a destination eatery located to the north of the town at the head of Loch Fyne.
Glasgow, about 64 miles away, offers a full range of higher and further education services, as well as all the cultural and professional services normally connected with a major city. The A83 and A82 offer swift access to central Scotland with the closest rail link at Arrochar (22.6 miles) providing access to the main west coast line to Glasgow. Inveraray is also served by a bus service offering daily direct connections to Glasgow and to Campbeltown on the Mull of Kintyre; and daily to Oban.
The locality of Loch Fyne-side offers much in the way of outdoor pursuits. The forest tracks around Inveraray offer lovely country walks and safe off-road cycle routes.
Inveraray has a 9-hole golf course, the nearest 18 hole course is at Lochgilphead. The Loch Fyne Hotel has a swimming pool and Spa.
Mid-Argyll presents some of the most dramatic seascapes and landscapes on the West Coast of Scotland. Sea, river and loch fishing are easily available, as are a number of organised private and commercial low ground shoots as well as deer-stalking. There are excellent opportunities for boating/yachting on Loch Fyne, leading not only to the Clyde estuary but also to the Crinan Canal across the Mull of Kintyre to the Hebrides and the Atlantic.
